A revealing photograph of singer Lorde from the vinyl edition of her new album *Virgin* has gone viral, sparking debate on social media. The image, credited to artist Talia Chetrit, shows Lorde in see-through pants without underwear, echoing the album's cover—an X-ray of her pelvis by Heji Shin. Chetrit, known for exploring power dynamics and sexuality in her work, previously photographed Lorde for a single cover. The photo has drawn comparisons to Chetrit's earlier self-portraits and has been discussed in the context of nudity and illusion in art.
