Only the hands are folded

It caught our attention: H&M is using Madonna's eternal youth in its advertising—even though she's 48.

They noticed "Wow, that woman is awesome!" The only thing they left out was the "mega" that is otherwise obligatory for their generation. Otherwise, the two 18-year-old boys at the streetcar stop were completely enraptured by Madonna. However, they didn't relate their "wow" to Madonna's music. It wasn't even on the poster for H&M fashion. The two teenagers only noticed the picture of a woman. Doubly striking: Madonna turned 48 on August 16 this year. The woman with the "dance halo over her head" could therefore easily be the mother of our two youngsters. Nevertheless, it was not the maternal instinct that they obviously succumbed to with this portrait of a woman. What then? "I'm going to tell you a secret", says Madonna's website. But that's just the title of a new DVD about the life of the pop goddess. And so the secret of this eternal youth will probably have to remain locked up in a graphic computer forever. It has robbed Madonna of all her wrinkles for H&M. "This woman is really beautiful." Shortly after the boys, an older lady marveled at the poster. So the question remains: why wasn't Madonna depicted in real life? Only her stepsister Barbie will probably know the answer to that. (pan)
