Megyn Kelly has recently launched a scathing attack on Madonna's Grammy look, telling thousands of her viewers that she's extremely concerned for the singer's mental well-being.
Now, it comes as no shock that the 64-year-old has been a major talking point ever since she showed up at the Grammy's to introduce Sam Smith and Kim Petras before their controversial 'Unholy' performance.
While she had hoped that people would be directing their focus on more important things, like Petras being the first openly trans woman to win a Grammy, instead she found herself being the center of some negative press.
"It's been 36+ hours since the Grammys ended and I'm still waiting for Madonna's face to actually move," wrote one Twitter user while another added: "I finally watched the Grammys last night. I’m still trying to process Madonna’s face. Why? Just why?"
Now, journalist and podcast host, Megyn Kelly has weighed in on the conversation, and let's just say, she was extremely passionate about the state of Madonna's appearance at the Grammys.
On a recent episode of her self-titled show, she described the pop icon as "unwell".
"I’m sorry but this is a sickness," Kelly said during her broadcast on Tuesday. "This is an unwell person who we featured at the Grammys the other night, and I don’t know if it says more about her, about our society, or about celebrity, but it’s disturbing me at the core."
According to Radar Online, Kelly herself has allegedly undergone cosmetic work in order to maintain a "youthful" appearance, however, during the episode, she said she aims to be in a "better place" when she reaches Madonna's age.
"I really hope that I would be in a better place [when I get to my 60s]," she explained. "I’d like to think when I’m 64, I’m not going to give a s*** what people think about the way I look or my age."
Kelly, 52, added: "I’m just going to be like full-fledged effing me. This tells me she’s a sick person who needs some help."
And it seems like a lot of people actually agree with the former Fox News anchor's views.
"She’s been un well since 1984," wrote one user.
"Madonna was such a beautiful woman. Sad this happened to her," another chimed.
A third said that "Madonna is single-handedly destroying her own legendary and iconic image..."
The news comes shortly after Madonna herself addressed the rumors surrounding her look via a lengthy statement on Instagram.
"Instead of focusing on what I said in my speech which was about giving thanks for the fearlessness of artists like Sam and Kim- Many people chose to only talk about Close-up photos of me Taken with a long lens camera By a press photographer that Would distort anyone’s face!!", she wrote.
"Once again I am caught in the glare of ageism and misogyny That permeates the world we live in. A world that refuses to celebrate women past the age of 45 And feels the need to punish her If she continues to be strong willed, hard-working and adventurous."
Madonna then stated that she's never "had to apologize" for any of the creative choices she's made in her career, and she isn't about to start now.
"I have been degraded by the media since the beginning of my career but I understand that this is all a test and I am happy to do the trailblazing so that all the women behind me can have an easier time in the years to come. In the words of Beyonce 'You-won’t break my soul.'"
The star concluded her post by emphasizing that she will continue to push boundaries and stand up to the patriarchy, but most of all, she'll be focused on "enjoying [her] life."
You do you, girl!
