Madonna's daring pictures were a hit with fans
Another simply remarked: "You are on fire!"
Madonna's daring pics are not new to her 16 million followers, and come just weeks after she celebrated her 63rd birthday with her family in Italy.
"Let the Birthday Games Begin," Madonna captioned a series of photos from the party, which saw her joined by her six children - Lourdes, Rocco, David, Mercy, and twins Estere and Stella - as well as boyfriend Ahlamalik Williams, 27.

In one snap, the singer was seen sitting with her arm wrapped around 21-year-old Rocco while budding model Lourdes crouched down in front of him, with multiple braids in her hair as she rocked a skin-tight black minidress.
In a second picture, the 24-year-old, whom Madonna welcomed with ex Carlos Leon, showed off her modelling skills that landed her a recent Vogue cover as she pouted for the camera.
The star was inundated with birthday wishes, including designer Donatella Versace who wrote: "Happy birthday to the one and only! You look AMAZING."
Kelly Ripa added: "Happy birthday #iconic."
