Pink reader Tori sends in a bunch of photos of the CD booklet artwork for Britney Spears‘s new album Circus (which isn’t due for release until December 2). Here are a couple of the pics that will be included in the booklet … including a close-up of Britney from the album’s backcover photo (which we got to see on Friday):
I do like the top photo … but I’m still a bit creeped out by the backcover photo. I had to cut out the scary-ass little clown, tho. I’m having a hard time with him. After the jump, check out a few more photos from the Circus CD booklet …
Yeah, there’s a lot of hardware going on in these pics. It kinda looks like the stylist stole a bunch of tiaras from various children’s beauty pageants and put them together to craft the jewelry for this photoshoot. I gotta be honest … I don’t love these pics … but, as I’ve said before, I’ve never been that impressed with the album artwork from any of Britney‘s releases. It’s all about the music, y’all. But, I could be in the minority here … do any of y’all like these photos?
[Thanks Tori]
Yeah Nippy, you have a point but at least the Blackout ones actually LOOKED like her. These ones are just horrid… photographer must be going blind to shoot crappy quality pics like these :-?
The fake corsetry is lame. The lack of anything remotely creative regarding circus iconography is sad, and the choice of blurring and these poses just make it seem like they are trying to hide imperfections in her face and body. She can look so pretty, I don’t know why this design team isn’t doing better work for her.
I agree with the photoshop. it looks like the popped your face on there. the first one doesnt even look like her.
for some reason it all reminds me of unicorns…
They probably look blurry and not great quality because it looks like someone was taking pictures of something they shouldn’t be and were trying to hurry. Anyways, i like them.
of course they need to photoshop it to death; she’s been ridden so hard and put away sopping wet.
lol…the first one (with the black neck ribbon) looks like a glamor shot! I had one of those when I was ten! Nevertheless…I love love love her.
kind of creepy
This totally screams “Back to Basics”. Christina pulled off the circus theme, Britney not so much.
[...] clock, because every time you do, it’s only been 30 seconds.What do you think the secret is? P.s. that picture up there is from the back cover of the album, and it’s TERRIFYING. Topics: Britney Spears, [...]
i really like them!
i’m not sure if anyone else has pointed out that her theme for the new album is really similar to christina aguilera’s last album Back To Basics that had a strong circus theme to it as well. i’m not hating on britney, i love the girl, but it seems kinda too close for comfort…
