It’s Britney watch! Sneek peek of Britney in Pop magazine!
We interrupt your regular blog postings for yet another edition of BRITNEY WHOAWWWWTCH!
It doesn’t hit stands until September 1, but Australian tabloid Grazia have been given a sneak peek of the upcoming issue of Pop magazine, featuring none other than Miss Britney Spears. And, if you were expecting something glossy and glamorous then think again, because by the look of this preview, Brit and famed artist Takashi Murakami have gone for something uber-trashtastic. The cover looks like some cheap porno magazine that you’d find hidden in your fathers garage, all frayed and faded because it’s been sitting there for ten years… and I love it! It’s such a stark contrast to the overly-sleek, high-gloss fashion that everybody else is doing right now, so I can only hope that her new album is as edgy as this look.
Anyway, enough of my ranting, and back to the Holy Spearit, who actually elaborated a little on the shoot in the excerpt that Grazia were given.
“I loved working with Takashi,” said Britney. “I especially liked how he took high-end fashion and incorporated it with Japanese Manga. We took a lot of characters and art before we shot, so I could get a feel of what he was looking for. I was in Japan on my last promo tour, and I loved it.”
And when I say that ‘Britney’ said that, I mean Larry Rudolph or Adam Leber said it, shoved Brit’s name on it, stuck it in a press release and then mailed it to Grazia.
You’ll be able to see the full Takashia/Britney Pop photoshoot in full and HQ when the magazine drops on September first. Can’t wait!
