That Britney Spears Sculpture

News of the Weird:

Sculptor Daniel Edwards will showcase his newest work, "Monument to Pro-Life: The Birth of Sean Preston," next to a display case filled with pro-life materials at a Brooklyn gallery.

Yep, it's a sculpture of Britney Spears giving birth to her son. Britney is in no way involved with the project.

According to the AP story, "The life-size pop princess is naked and pregnant, crouching face-down on a bare-toothed bear rug as the baby's head appears on the opposite end."

Wow. That is bizarre.
