It makes no sense, even for her.

I like it for the most part but I hate her facial expression :/...it's so unattractive .

EDIT: I take it back...man the more I look at it the less I like it .

Wow, I'm surprised at the overwhelming votes of NO xD I was also a no.. I can't stand the new cover. It looks like a mashup of Ozzy Osbourne, 50 Cent, and Orange County Choppers. Seriously.. it looks so awful. And it has nothing to do with being born the way you are. In fact, to me it seems just the opposite. I don't mind the special edition of the album (the one with the close-up of her face) but I just wish she would've gone another route for the regular cover.

honestly? I kind of like it and I'm not even a fan of her... the cover isn't pretty, yes, it's odd, yes, but I'd rather see something like that than some blegh beauty shot. and why isn't it inovative? Did you see someone turning themselves into a motorcycle cyborg for a cover? I didn't....
I do agree though that her single cover was really WOW they should have used that instead. But I do like the egyness of the black and white and the wild apperance of hers, messy.

double honestly? yes it is a little stupid, but this still falls bechind the egg thing she did for grammys... I thought that was the stupidest thing that anyone could have think of...
Just because its art doesn't mean we have to like it. I personally, would have preferred a beauty shot. Covers can be pretty and edgy/wild too, imo. To me, she just looks like she rolled out of bed.

I feel like EVERY cover is black and white nowadays though. I'm already so over it. I know it's classic but I almost always prefer things to be in color. The Fame Monster's covers were great, but even the Born This Way single cover just doesn't do much for me. 9 times out of 10 I feel like people are using B&W just to be edgy or whatever and it just doesn't work on me.

I'm happy at least someone likes it, I was getting worried that AHS was getting too friendly and agreeing with eachother too much.

I voted for yes by accident, I wanted to vote for no.
I personally don't like it at all, it looks ugly in my opinion.

I like Gaga, but she is SO weird. And I'm sorry, but whoever does her makeup, she needs to fire them. They make her look like a drag queen.

Its an interesting concept and something Gaga would do, but no. She needs to tone it down.

Like the idea but execution gets an 'F' from me. What is up with all the black and white and hideous make up from her these days?

I miss 'The Fame' era Gaga sfm.

I don't like the way people consider something weird as bad or ugly. I don't like her music for the most part, but looove the cover. She could have manipulated the picture a bit more so it doesn't look like she's just on top of the motorcycle instead of one with it, but still love it!
