The second one, without a doubt! I actually like the pink backdrop, but enough with this bondage/latex themed shoots already.! I bet this was her idea. Of course Murphy's Law will dictate that the mask or the boob cover will be shipped to UK.
I can already imagine what this shoot will be like.

 

[MON]

The way M&M personifies Madonna bores me to death already... I'm sorry but why can't she take a shoot that makes her a bit more dignified or a bit classier than this. I get it, it's the art issue, but I don't think sex more-so bondage is a form of art (or is it?). The second cover is undeniably the better one amongst the rest. She's a beautiful lady and she needs a better, more beautiful, and a more decent portrait. It's time to leave the bondage / dominatrix peg to Miley Cyrus

why can't she? is the most pointless question one can ask with regards to Madonna. She can't because she does what she wants... she is very rarely dictated by anything or anyone but herself... However, i totally agree re-bondage theme... I am kind of over it...
I dislike all 3 covers... I would say, I prefer the third one but she looks a bit like Amanda Lepore...

 

[Cosmic Voices]

Can't wait for the unretouched photo leaks.

 

[KateTheGreatest]

Madonna in a bondage themed editorial. Now that's something that has never been done before

 

[simondufromage]

Her face looks unrecognisable on the fourth pic posted.

 

[Lola701]

So it seems like they'll never top their POP Magazine 2002 coverstory...
Madonna, go back to Meisel & Klein. Please!

 

[mepps]

Amazing covers! All of them. And based on the other pics They've posted on their instagram, as well as others I've seen on the net, this is not a bondage photoshoot.

I love how M&M always worship her as the Queen, and icon she is.
They tend to go a bit over the top with photoshop, but they do it with everyone. That's their schtick.

 

[DutchHomme]

She doesn't look like that at all! But she is recognisable because we see these kind of Madonna shoots by M&M over and over again ZZZZ

 

[Oxymore]

Ok so she's totally showing off her boobs. I would have prefer not to see that tbh

 

[AD011620]

the editorial and the interview are available at madonnarama... some shots are great... i am not sure it is her boobs bcos they look a bit unnatural...

I'm bored! Same concept again and again!!

 

[VogueGirl8910]

The 1st cover is the best of the other 2, her story is fine, but the Interview could be better choosed Steven Klein. I mean, Madonna & Klein made wonders & i started to get bored to see everywhere the work of Mert & Marcus.

 

[kokobombon]

I was excited about Madonna until I saw it´s by M&M
The covers and editorial are not bad but we´ve seen her like this time and time again... and Klein does it better imo.

 

[BerlinRocks]

so many latex looks, lately !

anyway. styling is good - madonna styled by her stylist, i guess it couldn't be too wrong. photography is very guy bourdin meets caravagio ...

i like the fact there's a jean cocteau book (in French!) on the last photo.
