Shirley Manson hits back at being called ‘unrecognizable’: ‘I will continue to wrinkle and flub’
Apr 16, 2025
Shirley Manson is clapping back at her haters.
The lead singer of the rock band Garbage took to Instagram on Sunday in response to a recent article criticizing the crew’s appearance.
Manson posted a screenshot of the story’s headline, which states, “Iconic American rock band look unrecognizable in new album promo snaps as they promote its first single” above a black-and-white photo of the band.

“What is THIS supposed to mean?!?” the 58-year-old star began in the caption, adding that her male bandmates “look exactly the same as they have always done for thirty years so I can’t help thinking this is directed at me.”
“Look — I’m nearly sixty years old,” the Scottish singer continued. “Of course I’m not going to look anything like my late twenties self?!? Quite honestly I think it would be a bit creepy if I did but hey that’s just me.”
“Either way — this kind of language is weaponized to put a woman like me in my place,” she added.
Manson then shared that she’s decided to “reject this gift,” calling it a “fail” and ensuring fans that “I shall continue to age as I am.”
“I will continue to wrinkle and flub – lose an inch of my height here and gain a new inch or two there – but I will still look cute in my pyjamas with bed head and no make up on and I will always,” she insisted.
