Madonna’s oldest daughter, Lourdes Leon, is following in her mother’s footsteps with a unique twist via Yahoo.
On August 29th, Leon was recently spotted performing with her backing band in Ibiza, Spain, and she resembled her mother strikingly. Dressed in an all-black outfit with her long, dark hair cascading down her back, she looked like a snapshot of Madonna early in her career.
Leon is passionate about the music scene and she performs under a different name: Lolahol. She has been using this stage name for the past few years, but many fans are still becoming familiar with her alter ego as a performer.
In September 2023, Leon told Vogue España what she was trying to evoke through her music.
“[I try] to encompass the experience of that world of dance that comes to meet you when you are out partying and immerse yourself in that clubbing culture,” she explained. “That’s what I want to bring to the stage. My dancers and I are trying to create a joyful atmosphere through the choreography and the music that accompanies it so that the performance is relaxed as well as cool.”
Early on in her career, she listened to her mother’s advice about diving into the entertainment industry.
“She’s very much like, ‘Proceed with caution and think about what you want to be known for,’” Leon told Interview in 2021. “My mom is very insistent on making me think about what I want to be known for beyond my looks. That’s not what I want people to remember me by. It’s not real.”
And mom is quite proud of her daughter’s talents. “I’m green with envy because she’s incredible at everything she does – she’s an incredible dancer, she’s a great actress, she plays the piano beautifully, she’s way better than me in the talent department,” Madonna told British Vogue in 2019.
