Fancy dress: Madonna celebrated the Jewish holiday of Purim by dressing up as Charlie Chaplin in New York City this weekend
Madonna reserved her right to remain silent last night as she arrived at a party in New York dressed as the world's most famous mime.
The pop star celebrated the Jewish holiday of Purim by dressing up as Charlie Chaplin at a fancy dress celebration in New York City.
Wearing the black suit that the English comic actor wore as his most memorable on-screen character The Tramp, the 52-year-old was almost unrecognisable in the costume.
With a pair of baggy pants, a tight coat, a small derby hat, and the famous small moustache, Madonna went all out for the occasion.
The singer was accompanied by her famous photographer friend, Steve Klein, who wore an all jet black mask, and her two children Lourdes, 14, and Rocco, 10.
Madonna and Klein have worked closely in the past on collaborations, including an infamous 2003 44-page portfolio shoot in W magazine titled 'Unbound'.
Madonna's latest look was a far-cry from the revealing outfit she slipped into for the Oscars last month.
In a black leotard and a few scraps of lace that exposed her behind, the pop star embarrassed Lourdes as they appeared on the red-carpet together at the Vanity Fair after-party.
According to the Mail Online, the mortified teen was overheard pleading: 'Mum, do you have to?!’ every time her pop star parent struck a pose and poked out her posterior for the waiting camera.
Madonna is known for her dedication to the Kabbalah faith and regularly celebrates significant Jewish dates.
Purim is a holiday that commemorates the deliverance of the Jewish people in the ancient Persian Empire from destruction in the wake of a plot by Haman, a story recorded in the Biblical Book of Esther.
The Queen of Pop's spiritual search led her to practise yoga and study Buddhism, Taoism and the Art of War - a 16th century military treaty - and to read about the early Christians. She said her search was over after she turned to Kabbalah.
In 1997, Madonna discovered a Los Angeles-based centre that teaches an eclectic mix of Orthodox Jewish tradition and positive thinking aimed at spiritual well-being.
In 2004, she took the Hebrew name Esther but has not converted to Judaism.
Madonna has previously visited Israel in 2004 and 2007 on private trips.
She also took her Sweet and Sticky tour there in 2009 and on the same trip met Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
