Madonna's daughter, Lourdes Leon, could be her mother's twin.
The rising pop star, 29, who performs as Lolahol, has been spotted hitting up all the hottest fashion shows at Paris Fashion Week. While Madonna is often associated with being blonde, the legendary singer, known for hits ranging from “Material Girl” and “Papa Don’t Preach” to “Vogue” and “Frozen,” is actually a natural brunette. These days, her stunning daughter sports the same raven-colored hair that her mother was born with. If she gave it a cut and put it in curls, she could even double as her mother during her "Like a Prayer" era!

Like her mother, Leon isn't afraid to make a statement with a risky outfit or two. At the Ann Demeulemeester fashion show at Réfectoire des Cordeliers in Paris, she even went with an outfit that had a sheer back. She likely has that Madonna-level confidence to pull off any outfit!

Leon, who goes by Lola, said it was a bit overwhelming being Madonna’s daughter. (Her father is Madonna’s ex, Carlos Leon.) Her mother was desperate to keep her in line, considering the paths that many other famous children take.
“I think my mom saw all these other kids of famous people, and she was like, ‘My kids are not going to be like this,'” Leon told Interview in 2021 during a discussion with her mom’s dear friend, Debi Mazar. “Also, I feel like if your parents pay for things, then it gives them leverage over you. My mom is such a control freak, and she has controlled me my whole life. I needed to be completely independent from her as soon as I graduated high school.”
Does Lourdes Leon Perform Music?
Leon has long been known as a dead ringer for her mom during her “Like a Prayer” period. Back in August, Leon was spotted performing with her band at a beachfront restaurant and bar in Cala Molí, Ibiza, and she looked exactly like Madonna circa the late ’80s. In photos published by PEOPLE, the young musician sported long, dark hair styled in soft waves as she sang into the mic. Dressed in a long black skirt and silk top, Leon’s dark features were reminiscent of several different eras of her mother’s diverse career. Madonna is a natural brunette, after all!
