Madonna pictured in RARE unfiltered photos as celebrity agent pal Maha Dakhil celebrates her 65th birthday… while the Material Girl looked younger than ever in her own posts

  • Madonna’s The Celebration Tour dates in full 

Madonna’s fans got a rare view of her on Tuesday when her friend Maha Dakhil posted a series of unfiltered photos to commemorate the pop icon’s 65th birthday.

The hitmaker could be seen in the same black-and-white outfit that she showed off in her own social media posts, indicating that it was snapped during her festivities in Lisbon, Portugal.

But unlike Madonna’s own posts, Maha didn’t fuss with filters and shared what appeared to be fairly unvarnished images of her and the Material Girl.

The singer’s fans got a very different image of her when she posted boisterous but smooth-faced videos to her TikTok account on Wednesday.

Maha, who is the Co-Head of Motiona PIctures & International Film Groups at the prestigious Creative Artists Agency (CAA), beamed while wearing a lacy white blouse that hung loosely off her shoulder as she posed with Madonna in one snap.

Closer to reality: Madonna, 65, appeared with unusually natural skin in a rare unfiltered photo from her 65th birthday party in Lisbon, Portugal, that was shared by her talent agent pal Maha Dakhil

The musician was dressed in a black short-sleeve shrug with white tiger-like stripes. 

Her long blond hair obscured it in the photo, but she paired the top with a lacy black corset and baggy black pants with a similar striped pattern and an illustration of a roaring panther on the front.

Maha clasped one of Madonna’s black-gloved hands in her own as they sat posing for the picture.

Unlike Madonna’s usual photos and videos, which present her with extremely smooth and detail-free skin, the picture highlighted her natural complexion while still emphasizing her incredible age-defying beauty.

‘Happy birthday to my dear sister, ‘a bride married to amazement’ Viva with that bada** life force. I cherish you,’ Maha gushed in her caption.

She include a second photo of herself beaming as she followed Madonna through the streets of Lisbon as she continued her birthday celebrations.

The Like A Prayer singer was now dressed in a cream-colored ensemble covered in abstract red-and-black designs, and she wore angular white cat-eye sunglasses invigorated with a crust of jewels on the edges of the frames.

Meanwhile, her celebrity agent pal stuck with a simple black dress so as not to steal the spotlight.

Although Madonna still looked effortlessly youthful, the photos showed her skin with greater clarity than the ultra-smooth photos and videos she posts to her own social media accounts.

The appeared to be followed by a large crowd of partygoers on the way to their final destination. 

The triumphant birthday posts came a day after Madonna announced the rescheduled dates for her Celebration Tour, following a health battle brought on by a serious bacterial infection.

Although she has not shared exactly what the infection was that she was afflicted with, she shared her gratitude shortly after being discharged from the hospital in late June.

‘I have felt your love. I’m on the road to recovery and incredibly grateful for all the blessings in my life,’ she wrote.

And to celebrate her new lease on life, Madonna Louise Ciccone shared a video to TikTok captioned ‘Happy Birthday to me!’ which saw the singer appear younger than ever with a remarkably smooth visage. 

In true Madonna fashion, things got a little risqué as she lifted her arms to reveal a black lace bra and signature corset underneath a silk top.  

Madonna toasted her 65th bash during an intimate dinner in Lisbon, Portugal — where she resided between 2017 and 2020 — on Tuesday night as the clock struck midnight. 

In a video shared on social media, the mother-of-six was seen dining with her friends and family as she gave a short speech, declaring: ‘It’s great to be alive!’

Strike a pose: Madonna shared this close up shot on Wednesday, her 65th birthday, telling fans that she was reading all her birthday messages 

According to The Portugal News, the performer will remain is Portugal’s coastal capital city until the weekend. 

‘She landed with about 30 friends from all over the world, on a normal plane because she is an environmentalist, she gave up her private plane a few years ago,’ CMTV columnist Adriano Silva Martins revealed.

The Holiday hitmaker is staying overnight at the Hotel Pestana Palace.

Ahead of her milestone birthday, the Ray of Light superstar also shared a series of pictures to her official Instagram account, from a recent birthday celebration for her son Rocco, a fellow Leo, who turned 23 on 11 August.

While Madge continues to battle her fair share of haters for refusing to tone down her penchant for being provocative, few can argue that she remains a true living legend in the music industry. 

Her most recent song – a collaboration with The Weeknd – is currently charting on the Billboard Hot 100, racking up over 170million streams on Spotify, where she has over 41million monthly listeners, making her 62nd most streamed artist in the world on the platform. 

Released on June 17, the song Popular pushed Madonna into the exclusive club of having a hit the Billboard Hot 100 chart in five distinct decades; 1980s, ’90s, 2000s, ’10s and now ’20s. 

Cher is the only other female artist to have achieved the same status.

All the other acts to debut on the Billboard Hot 100 in five or more decades were male solo artists like Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra and Michael Jackson or all-male groups like the Rolling Stones and Santana. 

She’s not stopping there either. 

Recently, the singer teased fans that she’s been in studio working on more new music, with super producer Max Martin, known for making mega-hits for Katy Perry, Britney Spears, and Kelly Clarkson. 

While she is yet to confirm any details on what would be her 15th studio album, it’s clear Madonna has every intention of continuing her musical legacy.
