Aging pop stars

The pop stars Madonna, Michael Jackson and Prince all turn 50 this year. For the weekly newspaper Freitag this is a sign that the youth-oriented pop culture finds itself at a crossroads. "Madonna, Michael Jackson and Prince ... are considered obsolete today as pop figures. Their industry has long sworn by nothing other than the intensity of the moment. So the question of what future they face goes to the heart of pop culture. ... In the times before pop consciousness, the question of age was relatively easily solved. As long as the authenticity of the stage performance was more important than its artificiality it seemed the most sensible thing not to get old at all. ... On their 50th birthdays Madonna, Michael Jackson and Prince stand at a crossroads whose destinations have not yet been defined, or only negatively. Pop is the lightness of being in which one thing should remain invisible, namely that it is also work. ... The image machine that pop has always been ... has still found no proper images for old age."
