Carla Bruni's Album, Flunks

France's first lady and former supermodel Carla Bruni has recently launched her 60s-flavored music album "Comme Si De Rien N'Etait" and the record sales has flunked.

This did not came as a surprise for the supermodel-turned-chanteuse who was also expecting that her music would receive negative comments, especially coming from her husband's political opponents.

According to reports, Carla Bruni's flunked album was boycotted by left-wing voters who were opposed to Sarkozy's leadership. "A whole chunk of her former public just won't buy it even if they like the sound," says one salesman at a music store. "Clearly, it's a record that leaves no one indifferent, politically if not musically," added another co-worker.

Carla Bruni, on the other hand, says she did not have regrets in making the album of which the proceeds she will be giving to charity. However, she will not go on tours for security reasons. She has also said she will now take her official role as a priority, adding, "If I give enough to my new role, in terms of what I can really do to help other people, would that not take up all of a person's time?"

Though Carla Bruni's album has flunked, there's still one thing that she should cheer up for. It's the fact that she's, after all, the first First Lady who has ever recorded a music album. Like what the The Times had said, the boycotted album may still be “the best album ever made by the wife of a head of state."
