Lady Gaga Shapeshifts Into A Wolf

With only a month to go before Lady Gaga releases ‘Born This Way – The Remix’ album, the 25-year-old singer has unveiled the album’s cover art.

The artwork features a previously unseen still of Gaga taken from the ‘Born This Way’ promotional shoot lensed by long time contributor Nick Knight. The bizarre black and white shot, sees a part human/part animal Gaga sitting on what appears to be a sandy surface at night, and by the look of things ready to shapeshift into a wolf-like creature. Sporting a beehive, Gaga is adorned in a one-shoulder horsehair-like coating garment.

The avant-garde star’s fascination with inventing novel things to do with the shoe, aside from footing in, continues. Remember how we were introduced to the Gaga shoe hat earlier this year, well now the shoe is dangling off the mouth.

Memoirs Of A Gaga

V magazine in collaboration with pop sensation Lady Gaga tribute Asian beauty in their summer issue. Earlier we got a peek of Gaga’s three distinguished covers for the magazine and keeping true to V’s tradition of having multiple different covers, it turns out there is a fourth alternative cover. The cover features a close-up shot of the “Judas” singer with far less flamboyant make-up than seen on the other covers and sporting an interesting dark facial mole.

Here is Gaga’s full fashion spread in the magazine:

Lady Gaga Celebrates Asian Beauty With V

Recently announced V magazine columnist, Lady Gaga grace the cover of the June issue of the magazine in the most bedazzled way. Besides its alluring starlet, the cover is given so much depth with the multi-headed format .

Gaga, who sports two side ponytails and chic bangs, strike a ferocious pose in a black Thierry Mugler bodysuit and knee-high stockings, with two other Gaga heads lingering on either sides of her shoulders. Cover-lines read “Memoirs Of A Gaga” and reveal that the singer’s interview inside will be done by the legendary Sir Elton John.

Peter Phillips executed the singer’s fascinating peacock feathers make-up.

Another alternative cover features the American Idol soon-to-be mentor, who was styled by close friend Nicola Formichetti, in an Indian inspired look. Gaga’s face is bejewelled with gold Indian beading, which include a pieced nose. She also sports a fierce fringe on the cover.

The 25-year-old covers the magazine’s issue #71, which has been dubbed the “Asian Issue”. The edition will be devoted to celebrating Asian beauty by having high profile Asian models dominate the magazine’s editorial shoots. Gaga will also debut her highly anticipated fashion/art column in the issue.

In a sneak peek of the 1,445 words column with two footnotes, Gaga explains her fashion credential, saying:

“I myself can look at almost any hemline, silhouette, beadwork or heel architecture and tell you very precisely who designed it first, what French painter they stole it from, how many designers reinvented it after them and what cultural and musical movement parented the birth, death and resurrection of that particular trend”.

 

Lady Gaga Is On The Edge Of Glory

As Lady Gaga’s May 23 “Born This Way” release date fast approach, the avant-garde singer is intensifying the hype with the release of a new song, strictly for promotional reasons, as early as tomorrow on iTunes.

“The Edge Of Glory”, which was produced by Fernando Garibay and DJ White Shadow, will serve as the first of three Gaga promotional singles to be released digitally as part of the “Countdown to Born This Way” promotion on iTunes. During her “Google Goes Gaga” interview, the pop sensation revealed that she penned the song following the death of her grandfather in September, last year.

The song is said to feature Clarence Clemons from E Street Band, a band that has often toured and recorded with rocker Bruce Springsteen, on saxophone. Gaga has also been quoted as describing the song during her “Google Goes Gaga” interview saying, “The song is about your last moment on earth, the moment of truth, the moment before you leave earth. It can be played on the piano, but it’s actually set to this giant, huge, techno rock, Springsteen-esque dance beat”.

In true Gaga style the cover artwork for the song tells a story of its own. The singer appears nude with her shoulder tattoo showing in the Nick Knight shot photo. The 25-year-old also sports big frenzy hair, her signature facial and shoulder prosthetics as well as ruby red lips and black dagger-nails matching her perfectly done cat eyeliner.

Gaga has prior posted a bit of the song’s lyrics on Twitter, which goes like: “Back in the hustle, just like it’s my first time, another shot, before we kiss the other side, I’m on the edge of something final we call life, I’m on the edge of glory, and I’m counting on a moment of truth, I’m on the edge of glory, and I’m counting on a moment with you”.
