I don't think anyone object to her taking "sexy pictures", but they were taken poorly. I mean, wtf is all that junk in the background? It's not MY STORY-esque, it's just a mess of crap on the floor. Plus, the rose petals make me think of the Super Manuel book - why would Leslie use the concept again for her album cover? This is how she's representing herself to the public...

We know she DGAF about the media, but the covers could be in much better taste. She can wear lingere and still look alluring - she can be NAKED and look beautiful, but right now, this is a hot mess. A dishevelled wreck of a cover.

LOVEppears, Duty, RAINBOW, MY STORY, even NEXT LEVEL were chokka block full of naked and near-naked poses, but they didn't manage to look this bad. Even with Rule/SPARKLE she looked more fierce than trashy.

Again, I like the concept - she's used similar themes in the abovementioned covers, but this time it's so poorly executed that I hope they're changed last minute or are slipcovers. Someone mentioned that S/S was better than this? I agree with that! xD

Not trying to hate on your comment - I totally see what you're looking at, I just think it could be, well, so much more than kneeling on a bench with your butt against a mirror, or ROTFLing with a shoe or eating a tissue/napkin...Ayu can take way better quality candid-style shoots than this.

Will you marry me? You just said everything I wanted to say but couldn't because I'm frozen in some sort of RAGE!!1!!! state.
