We bet Cher is thanking her lucky stars for airbrushing!

The 67-year-old singer has certainly turned back time in the cover shoot for her brand-new album Closer to the Truth -- and we are totally diggin' it! Wearing a negligee and sprawled atop fur rug (as divas are wont to do), the always seductive singer revealed the new images to her fans on Twitter.

Along with the racy photos, Cher wrote, "Playboy Center-fold effects." At least she has a sense of humor about her smoldering pics.

Closer to the Truth has 11 tracks on the standard version, and 17 on the deluxe edition. The album includes collaborations with Timbaland and Pink. Originally a duet with Lady Gaga was slated to be on it as well, however the single was subsequently left off the album.

Cher said, "I think this is probably the best album I’ve ever done. I think it’s brilliant and I thought [Gaga's] performance was great but she doesn’t like it." What a bummer!

Closer to the Truth is Cher's first record since 2001's Living Proof and her 26th studio album.
