Nobody knew, and I haven’t even told the fans yet. But when we got all the MRIs finished before I went to surgery there were giant craters, a hole in my hip the size of a quarter, and the cartilage was just hanging out the other side of my hip. I had a tear on the inside of my joint and a huge breakage. The surgeon told me that if I had done another show I might have needed a full hip replacement. I would have been out at least a year, maybe longer.”[/quote] [img]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BQPCeygCMAAtKJo.jpg[/img] [I]Lady Gaga and Marina Abramović at the Watermill Benefit Auction, they are set to collaborate for ARTPOP[/I] [quote]“I had six months to beef up my brain and my body. I got to put a giant white or black sheet of paint over my whole canvas and I got to review ARTPOP again. I was given the time to really be creative because it’s a gazing process, it really is. I have to gaze into the work for long periods of time for it to be good. I have that feeling, that wonderful feeling, when me, Inez and Brandon look at each other and we go, ‘It’s so good. That’s the one.’”[/quote] [quote] Gaga chose the cover image from the video shoot because she thought it showed a different side of her performance, a vulnerable part that the public doesn’t often see. “It’s the end of the night after the show,” she says. “When I look at it I see that there is a longing for the applause. I see that there is a void that is leaking onstage, that the performer is leaking, that the art is sort of becoming something else in front of your eyes. Something more human, something more honest.” Gaga recalls being moved to tears during this particular performance for the cameras.[/quote] [quote]Fans will have to wait for the VMAs to see what Gaga has in store. “I’m sending a doppelgänger,” she says. “I’m going this year as a fried egg instead of hard-boiled.”[/quote] Read full interview here: [url]http://www.wwd.com/eye/parties/lady-gaga-im-every-icon-7068388[/url] Relevant: Gaga was moved to tears during a performance at the Watermill Benefit Auction [IMG]http://img850.imageshack.us/img850/9022/cv6i.jpg[/IMG] [url]https://littlemonsters.com/post/51f4aeb14f5cf1534d00007c[/url] "It was a beautiful piece with two clowns, a table and a man with the head of pipe." She commented on her website littlemonsters.com "The clowns operated the pipe to blow these huge bubbles, and music played. it was innocent and pure, but there was a sense of loss and sadness. I quite enjoyed it."

I'm not too excited over her look as the role of Lady Gaga, but she's talented. I'll give it a listen.

Still waiting for news on her swing album with Tony Bennett :( I hope that wasn't cancelled.

[QUOTE=JeanLuc761;41630759]Still waiting for news on her swing album with Tony Bennett :( I hope that wasn't cancelled.[/QUOTE] She recorded it in June, it probably will come out after ARTPOP, maybe December? Jazz/Swing is very popular during the holiday season.

I hope ARTPOP is good. The Fame Monster is still the best thing she's done in my opinion.

The thing is I'm not a big fan of her music yet holy crap she can put on a show. I saw her live a few years back and was struck how amazing the show was.
