Britney Spears looks amazing on the December cover of Australian Cosmo -- only problem...the picture is five years old!
These pre 5150/ K-Fed pics were taken by James White for a cover story that ran in Esquire Magazine back in 2003.
Cosmo clearly wants more Brit for the buck.

It's probably cheaper to use these pictures than to have a photo shoot then airbrush, retouch, and Adobe® Photoshop® everything.

They learned their lesson from OKAY magazine. Do you really want the Britster to show up with her entourage, order greasy take-out chicken, wipe the grease on the clothes you got for her, refuse to use your makeup artist, leave before the shoot is done (heisting the clothes and the jewelry she had on for the shoot), and you end up with nothing? Probably better just to use some pictures when she looked hotter.

Ain't phoney show business the bomb. Phoney pictures, phoney lifestyles. We should all have a publicist. Think of the Christmas cards we could send out!!

They were smart to use photos of Britney before her mental breakdown. Britney has that odd oerson look on her face these days. She might get a good body back but she will still have that odd look on her face!!!!!!

I LOVE BRITNEY. I MEAN, SHE'S BRITNEY SPEARS!
SHE CAME OUT WHEN I WAS LIKE 12 & I GREW UP LIKING HER.
THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER BRITNEY.
& PEOPLE ARE SO HARD ON HER. SHES HAD IT ROUGH GROWING UP TRU ALL SHE HAS GONE THRU.
THE PRESSURE OF BEING "PERFECT" AND FORCED TO BE A "SEX SYMBOL"
I THINK SHE IS A BEAUTIFUL GIRL & ALWAYS HAS BEEN.
IM GLAD SHE'S GETTING ON TRACJ AGAIN. & THAT IS SOOO STUPID FOR THIS MAGAZINE TO USE AN OLD PIC, WHEN THE PRESENT BRITNEY IS JUST AS BEAUTIFUL.
WHY DIDNT THEY RELEASE THE PICTURES IN 2003?
OH AND @ LOWELL:
GET A PORNO DUDE, FOR REAL.

Yes and they had to use the black background and a black dress, see, because it makes photoshopping and re-touching a whole lot easier.
Holly sagginess and extra pounds, Brit's re-toucher is going to be one rich guy. No recession there
