Marry the Exceptionally Long Video



The Video for Lady Gaga's most recent single leaked and was subsequently released tonight on E-redundant-exclaimation-point. Check it out if you can sit through it... and if you want to get to the good parts, skip to 8:45 for when the song actually starts. Video and a few picks for comparison...














Gaga says that the video is her retelling the truth of what may or may not have actually happened to her. Because she tells it this way, this is what happened.

Sure.

I buy that.

Moving on.

In true Gaga fashion, she references herself, her other videos, and of course Madonna and Christina Aguilera... I call it referencing so I don't have to say the c word... Don't make me say it... Ok, fine.  I didn't say copy, I promise.

At points in the video, Gaga looks exactly like Christina in Not Myself Tonight, like herself in Just Dance, Paparazzi, and Telephone, and like Madonna in the 80's.

Gaga is talking it out on E! right now and I never know what to make of her until after her image has left my tv... but I guess that's exactly what she wants. Well done, Gaga.
