CMV: People shouldn't make fun of Madonna for being old.

She can't control the fact that she gets older.  To me, she's an artist continuing her career and doing what she loves.  People make fun of her because they're used to seeing 20-year-old singers and young artists, but being a musician should be just like other careers; nobody would make fun of a 56-year-old lawyer, but when Madonna continues singing into her old age she gets made fun of for being a "dinosaur" and gets criticism for "Trying to stay relevant" by collaborating with Nicki Minaj.  **Of course she's trying to stay relevant.  All artists try to stay relevant.** It's how they make their living.  I just don't see anything wrong with Madonna continuing to perform into her 50s.

People aren't making fun of Madonna because she's old. They're making fun of her because she's not aging gracefully. No one is suggesting she shouldn't perform, they are suggesting that she shouldn't continually try to tie her brand to far younger performers in *failed* attempts to seem youthful. It all seems very transparent and people find it off putting.
