She was about 52. It was also touched up as was the video
But she is still very good looking and much more do than Madonna
You're right that it is not of the moment. I looked for it and, according to the sun.uk, the photo was taken at the 2014 Stagecoach Festival in Indio, when SH was 54.
Madonna, Michael and Prince were all born summer of '58, crest of the late boomers.
with Madonna is that her playbook going back 40 years is to constantly be re-inventing herself. You can certainly argue she looks ugly right now, but I wouldn't necessarily assume her goal was to look pretty.

If Madonna is going for tge ugly look she has definitely nailed it
Susanna Hoffs has always been naturally pretty and Madonna was never really that, going back to 40 years ago when they were each starting out and young. Madonna always had to cultivate an entire look and sound and brand, and she did an amazing job at it.
Hoffs, simply had the look. So much so, that it hurt her with the Bangles. The cameras were naturally drawn to her and it eventually wore on her bandmates.
I will admit to not knowing them until they hit it big with Manic Monday followed by Walk Like an Egyptian. That album, Different Light, was one of the first I bought myself and I immediately bought it's predecessor, All Over the Place. It helped them that this was also the dawn of the MTV age. As I mentioned in my previous post, Hoffs had "the look" and the cameras loved her, which helped them take off.
They were not a gimmick girl band, like some others. I wasn't aware at the time, but they had punk roots and were all serious artists. They all played their instruments and wrote music and lyrics.
I recently got back into them out of nostalgia and listen to them on Spotify in the car sometimes. The video shared earlier in this thread, was not totally current, but was still Hoffs in her 50s. I have seen videos of her in the last couple of years as she has been active on social media. She still looks and sounds absolutely fabulous. Both her looks and voice have remained truly captivating.
And those videos of them from about 10-15 years ago =, on a mini-comeback are pretty good. They still sound good live and play well. Their mini-comeback also yielded a return to some of their punk stuff.
thing was never beauty (in the classical sense), it was sex appeal.
Probably why she's so bat shit crazy now and doing things like this to herself.
I don't know her obviously and I'm not an expert by any stretch, but just human to human it must be hard to get old when you got famous from flaunting yourself and trying to shock people with how brazen you can be with your sexuality.

You are probably right on about that. And good point about beauty vs. sex appeal. It wasn't even sexy, as much as appeal and shock value.
of why I absolutely refuse for my wife to have any work done. I mean, first of all, we couldn't afford it anyway. But, from Botox to filler to surgeries I tell her absolutely not. Even when they can afford the best doctors and treatments, most of these women go WAY to far. Instead of looking younger, I think it comically makes them look older and TRYING to look younger. Almost none of them look better, especially when they really go all in during their 60s and over.

that's awesome. You "refuse", lol.
My wife doesn't need any work, she was out of my league when I married her and is only widening the gap as she ages, so she's never (as far I know) even considered anything cosmetic, but I would also never phrase it that way.

Mine doesn't need any either. But, she talks about Botox because she has a couple of friends who have done it and she thinks she has wrinkles.

Surprisingly shy at the beginning, but that changed over time. First thing I noticed is how tiny she was - and then she smiled and I was a believer.
She has aged remarkably well - the last time I saw her up-close, maybe 5 or 6 years ago my wife had to drag me away from her. What else can I add, she's a naturally beautiful woman who is aging at what seems to be a much slower rate than the rest of us. Truly a stunner, and then there's her passion for the same music that has kept me young (at heart.)
And I adore her voice, so that's one incredible package.
BTW, she's had two kids - boys - and if you run into her, ask her about Sam and Jackson- she'll either flash you a smile that will melt your heart or call the cops and cry "stalker!"
And, yeah, so freaking gracious, and it feels so genuine.
Or Tiffany, also had a thing for her.
always had a thing for hoffs and still would hit that though she's two-plus decades my senior, plastic surgery or not.
as for madonna, her outfit, hairdoo, and bad eyebrow pluck job are all working against her pretty hard. the collagen lips are a bit much as well.
but hoffs is def the hotter senior citizen.
Those legs look half her age
But she is still very good looking and much more do than Madonna

I remember being in love with her when I was younger, she was so cute.

She was also hotter than any of the heroin addict looking singers today.

Believe me, I'm saying "refuse" literally. Our relationship isn't like that.
