Airbrushes? We don't need no stinkin' airbrushes.

Scottish singer Susan Boyle can be seen in all of her un-Photoshopped "Hairy Angel" glory on her upcoming debut album's cover art, which has just been revealed, The Daily Mail reports.

Though fans of the "Britain's Got Talent" star worried that the endearingly bushy-browed, double-chinned lass would go Hollywood, the "I Dreamed A Dream" album cover shows no signs of spray tan, hair extensions, or Ralph Lauren-style editing jobs.

Instead, Boyle's lovely black and white image, reportedly taken from her recent photoshoot with Harper's Bazaar, is refreshingly down-to-earth. The hair is tamed and the brows are tidy, but the wrinkles are all present and accounted for -- just as it should be.

One "Hollywood" concession: Boyle's sequined top, which might be a wee flashy for the folks back home in Blackburn.

And if preliminary record sales are anything to go by, Boyle's plan of keeping it real is good for business. According to The Daily Mail, the album, which drops Nov. 24th, has already landed on Amazon.com's best-sellers list thanks to thousands of pre-orders.

Just wait 'til Karl Lagerfeld hears about this!

It's been a wild year for the singer. Read more about Susan Boyle mania.
