Just a Pretty Face? is the third studio album by Finnish singer Anna Abreu, released in Finland by RCA on October 21, 2009. The album was preceded by the lead single "Music Everywhere" and followed by the promotional singles "Impatient" and "Slam".
The album was primarily produced by Abreu's long-time collaborator Rauli Eskolin, who had been responsible for the success of her previous, dance-infused album Now. It was the first of Abreu's albums to feature the rap genre, with the song "Capital C" featuring a rap segment. In its first day of release alone, the album sold 23,000 copies and was certified gold, becoming one of the fastest selling records in Finnish music history. Ordinarily, the album would have reached number one in its first week. However, the same week also saw the release of two other high-profile albums and as a result, Just A Pretty Face? debuted at number three on the Finnish albums chart.
Just a Pretty Face? debuted at number three on the Finnish Top 40 albums chart, a position it held for three weeks. In its seventh week, it reached its chart peak of number two. In its first day of release alone, the album sold 23,000. To date it has sold over 30,000 copies, becoming Abreu's third consecutive platinum album.
