“Selena knows she has to keep up with the likes of Miley and do a risqué naked shoot for her album artwork because it’s good for sales,” a source tells HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY. Well, we don’t know who wouldn’t want to buy Sel’s album after seeing her stunning topless (maybe even nude) album photo! Plus, Selena knows that showing skin has worked for Miley and other successful artists.

“It worked for Madonna in the past, and others have always sold their sexier side along with their music,” our insider continues. “Selena doesn’t believe she should be too shy when it comes to promoting her own record in that regard.” Go Selena! Though she’s keeping her album details on the down low, it seems like her “revival” will definitely feature her sexy side!

“Good For You” was by far her hottest music video yet, and it seems like Selena is very ready to shed her Disney image, just like Miley. One thing is for certain — we are so excited for Revival and its Oct. release date!
