I liked the other cover.

Or was that just artwork for the album?

*SILENT ALARM DEACTIVATED*

Apparentley it's fake, or at least a joke, and is not in fact being used.

Maybe there are words, and they are, that it's not the cover?

I don't think i'll be buying the album due to the fact the cover is so awful.

It's clear the songs will be just as awful.

The only thing I like about the cover is the humour. It's not taking itself too seriously.

I think the font is the worst element. This will be the third font style this era, seems quite sloppy. Much prefer the red Impact 'GAGA' and the 'Born This Way' script-style.

I agree, I like the cover but don't like the font, it looks like one of those styles on MS font art-which is why I think the cover is fake.

Not surprised she's changing it and going back to the drawing board. Even if this was a joke, still not funny.

Are you kidding me? Lady GaGa will make this out to be yet another awe-inspiring incredible piece of artwork just like everything else she's churned out in this Born This Way era.

I'm really starting to despise Lady GaGa.

Just because she isn't hamming to the camera with a knowing wink, doesn't mean there isn't humour to her work.

She's said herself that people take her both way too seriously and not seriously enough.

This cover screams humour to me, despite not liking it. We all expected some deep, artistic statement with a highly stylised shot of her face - probably with religious undertones. Instead she photoshops herself into a transformer with a nod to 80's hair metal kitsch.

Of course she'll waffle on about the 'art' and how amazing this cover is, but that just means there's thought behind it - which there no doubt is. It doesn't, however, mean it's to be taken 100% seriously.

She is the one that is desperate to be taken seriously as an artist though. She is the one that tries to attribute depths of meaning to the things she does when, quite frankly, there is no depth there. She is the one that comes up with convoluted, meaningless explanations for the stupid things she does, e.g. the meat dress.

She or her fans can't now turn around and say 'stop taking her so seriously', she WANTS to be taken seriously and she WANTS people to think that the things she does are artistic and deep.

i guess i am one of the few who effing loves it!!!!

i was worried it would be her touchin herself! but i truly love it. It is fun but 80s punky style! Reminds me of the reaction to Xtinas BIONIC somewhat. I love the fact it makes you look at it! i think it is her bext cover thus far and i love the whole appearence and direction of it.

The Font reminds me of 80s action movies (Blade RUnner, The Terminator) no rock & roll like i thought, BUT Punky

There's a difference between being taken seriously as an artist, and being taken seriously as a serious artist. i.e. demanding respect for what you do, regardless of how high/low brow one might consider it, rather than preferring everything you do to be seen as credible in a traditional sense and complete seriousness.

You can be artistic, thought provoking with deep meaning...but still have humour. That's what the vast majority of contemporary art is about. When someone cuts a cow in half, leaves an unmade bed or diamond encrusts a skull...there's humour and wit there.

The meat dress was many things, and humorous was certainly one of them. She could have made all manner of statements in a more serious way, but she didn't. She wore a dress made of meat. She hatched from an egg. Now she's a transformer.

I want the old lady gaga back, there just seems to be no hype about this secong album, everything seems second best. I hope there are better songs in the album, because born this way and Judus offer nothing new to the charts GAGA PLEASE COMEBACK STRONGER !!!

I was hoping the album cover would use this picture, with the same font too. I'm glad if that cover was a joke, I'd hate that to be the real cover. Not that it really matters as long as the album itself is good.

Realllly hoping that it's a joke, I love Born This Way and Judas, so I'm pumped for the second album, but that cover just looks cheap, nasty and tacky.

Haha love the irony of fake superficial fandom there honey (or I hope it is, I pity the fool that judges songs based on album artwork)

It's odd but part of me liked it, it's so in your face and f**k off. A clear homage to rock bands and just a little cheap.
