Lorde Tucks Nude Photo in the new artwork album and fans are divided
Lorde is making a very presumed return of music this summer with a new album that has some provocative works of art.
The “Virgin” vinyl edition, launched last week, appears on the website of the two -time Grammy winner with a warning seal of “parents advice” that says: “Adult images”. The eight -page insert of the album includes a naked photo of Lorde with the camera approached to his crotch, visible through a pair of transparent pants.
During the weekend, a Lorde representative confirmed to the entertainment weekly that the image is in fact of the singer, whose real name is her Yelich-O’Connor.
It is not surprising that the photo has drawn a heated talk among Lorde’s fans.
“Does the application open and the first thing I see is Lorde’s Coochie on my face?” A person wrote on X, previously Twitter. “With Bush, they realize you.”
He added another: “Unless you are touching an instrument, I don’t need to see it.”

Others, however, arrived in defense of Lorde, and some compared it to the now iconic images of Madonna in his “erotic” era.
“All of you left one of these, it is the most natural thing in the world. They would not be alive if they did not exist,” a person wrote.
“Wait … Is this the new cover of the Lorde album that everyone is talking about? It is a beautiful photo, and the entire vinyl package is also, but come on, just shows anything,” added another. “There is no need for all the speech. Madonna de 90 would [killed] all of you. ”
Lorde, which comes from New Zealand, is no stranger to exciting images. The cover of his 2021 album, “Solar Power”, found it showing a touch of Derrière while running on a beach.
In an interview with the Broadcasting Corporation of Australia, Lorde said that the album cover, an radiography of his pelvis in which an intrauterine device, or IUD, is clearly visible: it is a tribute to the 1971 album of Rolling Stones, “Sticky Finters”, which, incidentally, it is also believed that the cover of the album of 1989 of 1989 of 1989 of 1989, “Like a prayer.” ”

“I thought that bringing that feeling to a female body was really interesting, and it scared me a little, the image,” he said. “I think it is sometimes a kind of sensation that you need to have with art.”
Leaving the images aside, “Virgin” has been received with almost universal praise of music critics, with Rolling Stone calling him the “most introspective album so far” from Lorde.
