Madonna’s daughter Lourdes Leon has taken part in a simulated orgy for a fashion show at Art Basel, Miami.

Leon was one of a number of models to participate in the Desigual show (video link is NSFW), the star closing out the event by dancing along a runway before joining around 30 other models on a large platform.

The 23-year-old then kissed and undressed another female model as the space transformed into an elaborate orgy of writhing bodies, with models simulating sex acts on one another.

On Instagram, Desigual described the “Love Different” show as “a representation in which the Catalan artist affects the most basic and universal act of love: the kiss”.

The description adds: “Please share in this message of love, multiculturalism and diversity.”

Speaking to Page Six, L’Officiel Magazine editor Peter Davis, who was in the audience, said that the show was “inclusive and all body types, [with] everyone fully making out with everyone.”

“There was kissing and grinding – everything but X-rated action, which was simulated,” he continued. “It lasted maybe five minutes, but it seemed a lot longer and was weird because people were cheering.”

Earlier this year, Madonna told British Vogue that Leon is “insanely talented” but suggested she “doesn’t have the same drive” that she had when she was her age.

“I feel social media plagues her and makes her feel like, ‘People are going to give me things because I’m her daughter,’ Madonna said.
