I normally don't do 2 posts in a day, but this was rather shocking and I had to share.
Not long ago, I remember reading an article about how Lucky Magazine apologized to the public for a horrible cover they did with included America's Sweetest Meltdown, Britney Spears. But then Halloween came around, and then The Storm That Shant Be Named and I forgot about it.
As I began going through my stack of Get-To things, I ripped open the plastic on some recently received magazines to discover this...

Sweet Baby Jesus what have they done to you Britney?!
Seeing this in person is far more horrific and traumatic. And I have never really thought of Lucky Mag as one to have bad covers! So where they pulled this defunct Halloween wig from is beyond me!
I count the days until I can afford wigs and look so forward to having a collection of ridiculous styles I can change up daily, but my biggest fear is having a wig that looks like this monstrosity.
Lucky Mag actually put out an apology for this, by Twitter no less:
“Thank you all for sharing your thoughts on our cover! As always, we will share with our team and we’re sorry to have let some of you down.”
It was even worse inside. Yikes.
I would have got to this sooner but Lucky got creative and sent out the magazine with this temporary cover added on post print. Saying it was "A sample of the new Lucky experience on the Windows 8 desktop"
Nice try Lucky. But no amount of Windows 8 will erase this image from my memory.
