Lady Gaga tweeted out the print ad for her Fame fragrance late Monday (July 16). And the shot leaves very, very little to the imagination.
The black-and-white photo features a fully nude Mother Monster wearing a black mask, with tiny men climbing up her body, strategically placed to cover her more scandalous parts. Shot by famed fashion photographer Steven Klein, the ad’s tagline reads, “The First Ever Black Eau de Parfum.”
