The 66-year-old Material Girl, who was branded ‘unrecognizable’ at the 2023 Grammys for her plumped-up cheeks and exaggerated pout, returned to the red carpet with a more refined, unfiltered appearance.
She donned a cream silk Tom Ford suit and paired the look with a white shirt, cummerbund, and bowtie, fully embracing the night’s The Garden of Time theme and its Tailored for You dress code.
The pop icon made her red carpet debut with her 29-year-old boyfriend, Akeem Morris, drawing plenty of attention from fans and fashion critics alike.
Many applauded the singer’s stripped-back style—though it wasn’t long before fans zoomed in on one missing feature: her iconic gap tooth.
‘New smile for the queen? New grillz? Where is her legendary gap between her teeth? In her last post she said she was going to see her dentist in Lisbon,’ one concerned fan commented alongside screenshots of her Met Gala smile.
Another added, ‘Ugh why’d you point this out. Now I’m gonna be stressed.’
Speculation quickly floated, with some fans wondering if Madonna had undergone a more permanent dental transformation.
‘It is visible at least from the Celebration Tour that she has teeth issues. Probably since she started wearing grillz—maybe to cover it up or after her hospitalization. She is always stunning,’ a follower wrote.
‘She had the gap during the tour. Now it’s gone,’ another fan noted. ‘No matter how iconic it was, she’s not afraid of letting go.’
‘I hope she did not get veneers,’ a fan added. ‘I noticed it immediately when she smiled at the Met Gala.
‘I don’t think these are grillz. Madonna made a post about a week before that she was at her favorite dentist. She definitely had something done, and I don’t like it.
‘Her teeth are iconic.’
Despite the online debate, Madonna hasn’t addressed her smile—or any changes—leaving fans to speculate about the future of one of pop culture’s most famous grins.
