Britney Spears’s latest single, “Hold It Against Me” leaked on the internet. I gave it a listen. It’s doef-doef with Britney singing about rubbing up on someone accompanied by some catchy backing tracks. Nothing new and we’ll probably hear it a million times the next 100 weeks or so. What is surprising though, is the unidentified woman in the artwork released with the single.
This shy lady seems to be walking backwards into a gale force wind mimicking Sanlam’s logo. I haven’t seen her on MTV or any TV for that matter. She’s an unknown – a little blossom plucked from obscurity and put on a Britney Spears album cover. I’m not saying I don’t like her – she’s lovely – she’s just not Britney.
If I’m holding anything against Britney it’s her not appearing on her own album cover. It’s unbecoming.
