Lorde unveils SHOCKING cover art for new album Virgin featuring her crotch area as fans spot alarming detail

Lorde has shocked fans as she debuted her new album artwork and sexually suggestive title. 

The jaw-dropping cover was an X-ray of what appeared to be her pelvic area, with her hip bones, belt buckle, and zipper visible.

However, fans were intrigued by a specific detail in the X-ray image – a T-shaped item that resembled an IUD (intrauterine device), which is a type of contraception placed in the uterus.

It’s not entirely clear if the X-ray is of Lorde but DailyMail.com has reached out for comment to confirm. 

Lorde, 28, dropped the visual to her Instagram where she also announced the title of her fourth studio album – Virgin. 

On her website, she claimed the album was written ‘100%’ in blood and will be released on June 27.

On social media, fans did not hold back as they expressed a range of emotions over the album cover.   

‘I WASNT PREPARED FOR THIS ON A WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON LORDE,’ one posted. 

‘girl what are we looking at,’ another tweeted. 

One suspected the inclusion of the IUD was a political statement.

‘Lorde putting an IUD on album cover is very political. Cant wait,’ one posted.   

Another praised her for the birth control display: ‘The IUD on Lorde’s new cover??? CONTRACEPTIVE QUEEN.’ 

‘NOT THE IUD BEING ON THE COVER FOR AN ALBUM CALLED VIRGIN OH MY LORDE YOUR BRAIN NEEDS STUDIED. THIS ALBUM COVER EATSSSS SO HARD,’ one tweeted. 

‘Never thought I’d see @lorde’s IUD but hey anything is possible,’ another posted. 

‘I WASNT PREPARED FOR THIS ON A WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON LORDE,’ another wrote.  

One humorously noted of the album cover and title contradiction: ‘She must be a very cautious virgin using a contraceptive IUD.’ 

Another joked: ‘When is Lorde gonna drop IUD merch’. (Lorde’s website is already selling merchandise that includes the X-ray).

An IUD is known to be one of the most reliable birth control methods, boasting a success rate of over 99 percent. This means that fewer than one out of 100 individuals with an IUD will experience pregnancy in a year.

Lorde said she was both ‘proud and scared’ of the upcoming project in an email sent to fans. 

‘The colour of the album is clear. Like bathwater, windows, ice, spit. Full transparency.

‘The language is plain and unsentimental. The sounds are the same wherever possible.

‘I intended to delve deep into exploring my identity. My aim was to create a piece that mirrored various aspects of my womanhood: unfiltered, instinctual, pure, sophisticated, vulnerable, spiritual, and somewhat masculine.

‘I’m proud and scared of this album. There’s nowhere to hide. I believe the putting the deepest parts of ourselves to music is what sets us free.’

It comes after Lorde released her first new music in four years, the song What Was That

She released the song on April 25 along with the music video which was partially filmed during her bike ride into Washington Square Park ahead of her pop-up performance of the track. 

What Was That is Lorde’s first major release in almost four years, following 2021’s Solar Power album.

Lorde is one of the highest-selling New Zealand singers of all time and her 2013 song Royals reached number one in America, eventually being certified 14 times platinum.
