Shakira in the Middle East

Apparently, Shakira's album cover (below) for "Oral Fixation Vol. 2" was a little too "naked" for consumers in the Middle East, and went through a Photoshop transformation.

Now, instead of a leaf bikini, she's wearing a leaf dress.

Hilarious, if you ask me.

Personally, I was a little shocked that they left the ankles exposed.

I understand the need in other cultures to keep some things covered, but why not create a different album cover completely, instead of creating "Shakira standing in shrubbery" cover?

Coming Soon

I'm sad to say the Musical Garbage Can will be leaving GoTriad on or about March 23. It will go back to its original home at Blogspot here. Thank you for your continued support!
