Actually, I think it looks like my puffy Lisa Frank trapper keeper from 6th grade. (http://www.colourlovers.com/uploads/2009/03/lisa-frank-2.jpg)

I am probably thinking more of the makeup job.

@Nicolars: No, it just looks like someone trying to imitate a cover like that and getting it wrong. It's got 2009 all over it.

It really does look like a mid 80s Samantha Fox or T’Pau album cover.

@SirLoin: More like "people hated his crappy music".

@k-rex: That is exactly what I was thinking! He looks like Battlestar Galactiqueen.

This is the reason I don’t believe in a god.

I’ll preface this comment by saying that all of my American Idol knowledge comes from the posts and clips that I see on this site (I skip watching the show and wait for the recaps here). That being said – wow. This can’t really be the actual album art. When aliens land centuries from now and begin to unearth our culture, they wont be able to accurately place the decade which this came from.

This album cover looks like a La Roux, Tokio Hotel, and something Davey Havok would like.

I don’t really mind the fact that the photo is the worst ever, or that he has been airbrushed into an almost unrecognizable version of himself, or the fact that a slightly chubby white guy without his shirt (and with makeup) on does not a sex symbol make. But what I do mind are horrific fonts, and this has officially snatched the title away from Cheryl Cole’s album campaign for damn-that’s-the-worst-font-of-2009. If his album “artists” wanted to go for futurism, a minimalist font combined with a solid background (hell they could have even made it neon if they had to) would have been loads better.

And I dare say, I have perused gay pornos whose covers looked exceptionally similar in tone and content.
