Lordi and Her New Album ‘Virgin’: Shock, Surprise, and Controversy!
Ready for the music scandal of the year? New Zealand singer Lordi, whose mother is Serbian, just shook the world with her new album ‘Virgin’ released last Friday. But it’s not just the music causing a stir – the album cover is an absolute bombshell!
What’s got fans buzzing?
The original cover shows an X-ray image of the singer’s pelvis and thigh bones, which was already enough to raise eyebrows. But Lordi didn’t stop there. The new vinyl cover version goes a step further – it shows a close-up of the area between her legs, covered only by transparent plastic pants. Yes, everything is visible, and this has sparked mixed reactions: shock, surprise, delight, and discomfort.
Secret Glastonbury gig
Just a day after the album release, Lordi surprised fans with a secret performance at the legendary Glastonbury festival, gathering thousands of people. This move only fueled interest in her new work.
Public and media reactions
While some fans were horrified, others praised the boldness and originality. Metro columnist Brooke Johnson praised the cover as brave but not vulgar, highlighting how it exposes the ways femininity is constructed and commercialized.
A new boundary of art or just provocation?
Lordi is known for pushing boundaries, but did she cross the line this time? Fans are divided, and social media reactions range from support to criticism. Her cover has been compared to that of American singer Sabrina Carpenter, who also attracted attention with a provocative cover for her album ‘Mans Best Friend.’
What do you think?
Has Lordi freed artistic expression with her new album and cover, or was she just seeking attention in the most extreme way? Boldness or over the top? Take a look at the cover, listen to the album, and share your thoughts – maybe it’s time to laugh a little or question where the limits of freedom of expression in music lie today.
Either way, Lordi has proven she knows how to shock and surprise, and we can’t wait to see what she does next. Got a hilarious comment or conspiracy theory about this cover? Feel free to share – we’re here to have fun and shake up the boring music scene!
Join the conversation and remember – music is art, and art loves to provoke!
