Pop model is Belgian pop singer Lio's third studio album of entirely new material and fourth album overall. It features two of her biggest hits: "Les brunes comptent pas pour des prunes" and "Fallait pas commencer". It is her second best-selling album and was certified gold in France.
Background
Pop model was released after the failure of her previous album, Amour toujours.
Between the two albums, Lio teamed up with French TV presenter Jacky and scored a Top 50 hit with the single "Tétèoù?", written and produced by her then-boyfriend, singer-songwriter Alain Chamfort.
According to Lio's autobiography, Alain Chamfort worked on the production of the lead single "Les brunes comptent pas pour des prunes" as a "breakup gift".
