| BRITNEY GETS GUMMY MAKEOVER
Pop beauty Britney Spears is the subject of a set of unusual new portraits made entirely from chewed chewing gum.
Canadian artist Jason Kronenwald has composed 10 celebrity portraits -- four of which feature the 22-year-old singer made from old chewing gum, with each flavor providing a different color.
Kronenwald admits he doesn't do much of the chewing himself, preferring to leave it to family and friends.
He says, "When my brother comes over, he chews a lot of Bubble Tape. It's great."
Bubble Tape and Trident are his two favorite brands to work with, although Black Jack rates as his top chewy choice.
Each of Kronenwald's portraits take roughly 40 hours to complete and sell for upwards of $2,000.
His other chewed masterpieces include screen icon Brigette Bardot, tennis beauty Anna Kournikova and actress Sarah Michelle Gellar, while a portrait of Spears' ex Justin Timberlake is currently in the works. | |
