Let's dive head first into 2018, for that matter, armpit first - that's exactly what Madonna's daughter did. She was seen in Madonna's instagram photo with hairy armpits. Was this a display for promoting natural beauty and freedom? This isn't the first occasion that famous celebrities openly displayed their hairy armpits. Julia Roberts created waves when she revealed her unshaved underarm hair at the 1999 Notting Hill premiere. Other female celebrities that followed suit in the past included Miley Cyrus, Penelope Cruz, Drew Barrymore, and Lady Gaga to name a few.
How did the media respond to Madonna's photo? Most social media users were not pleased at all. People were actually disgusted by the photo, some users stated: 'You should let your daughter know that this is a dirty and disgusting habit', 'Teach her to shave!', or 'she needs to be urgently waxed'. Despite all the negative comments, several users embraced the natural body hair change. Some users commented: 'Beautiful!!!!! Both are a great inspiration!' and 'It's natural!! Happy New Year 2018!!'.
What was Madonna's response to all this negative feedback? She added another instagram photo and said 'Oh Wait! What was my New Years Resolution? Oh Yea...To give many less F**ks about what people think'! Tell us what you think about this - armpit hair or no armpit hair?
