Lady Gaga Might Have Worn A Prosthetic Penis As Jo Calderone

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comAugust 31, 2011 //

Did you take a close look at Lady Gaga‘s groin area at the VMAs, when she appeared all night as her male alter ego, Jo Calderone? According to Us Weekly, if you had, you might have noticed a little somethin’ somethin’ down there. (And no, this isn’t a rehash of the rumor from 2009 that Gaga is a hermaphrodite.) According to the mag, Lady Gaga put on fake sideburns and fake stubble to make herself look more convincing, and also sported a prosthetic penis to help her get into character. While I still think her appearance totally bombed, this makes me slightly more interested.

Something that doesn’t? Keep reading »

Lady Gaga’s Sister Is Getting In On The Crazy Fashion Act

Julie GersteinAugust 21, 2011 //

Well, what do we have here? Lady Gaga’s younger sister Natali Germanotta is getting in on the fashion act. It seems that Gaga Jr.- -who made a small cameo in her sis’s video for “Telephone” — has been contracted to make costumes for the new off-Broadway play “Simon Says.” She’s only 19 years old, but this isn’t her first go-around. She also interned for designer Allison Parris in 2010. So does it pay to be Lady Gaga’s sister? Yes, yes it does. [WWD] Keep reading »

Lady Gaga’s Video For “Yoü and I” Is Intentionally As Confusing As Love

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comAugust 19, 2011 //

Yesterday, Lady Gaga‘s video for “Yoü and I” was supposed to premiere on MTV at exactly 7:49p.m. However, after it leaked earlier in the week, Gaga jumped the gun on unveiling the video, which features her as mermaid Yuyi and as dude Jo Calderone, as well as rocking her mother’s actual wedding dress. To make it up to MTV, Gaga still sat down with Sway at the anointed time to talk about the video. Because the song has that umlaut in the name, I had wondered if it was a reference to Lüc Carl. And that sure appears to be the case, though perhaps they are broken up after all? “I wrote the song about this guy that I used to date … Sometimes in love, you can’t make it work,” said Gaga. “No matter what you do, there’s this giant boundary between you and someone else. So that’s what it’s about, perceiving in your imagination that there’s something magical inside of you that you can make it work.” Whoa. That’s kinda very true. Keep reading »

Roaches Love Dancing To Lady Gaga

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comAugust 11, 2011 //

When a cockroach wants to shake a tail feather, what music does it prefer? Apparently, Lady Gaga. This summer, four teenagers in an engineering program at New York’s Cooper Union were studying the movement of roaches by hooking them up to electrodes and then exposing them to electric pulses. But soon the roaches got used to the pulses and stopped moving about. Desperate to find a way to get the roaches moving, the guys decided to try playing music for them. They tried Weezer, but got no response from the bugs. Ditto for heavy metal rockers Avenged Sevenfold. But when they started playing Lady Gaga—well, the roaches responded immediately, and never stopped their flapping. And the gross little buggers presumably have no idea that the woman once wore their dream dress, crafted entirely of meat. So what happened here? “The bass in Gaga’s song ‘Bad Romance’ prevented habituation since it’s not consistent,” explained one of the experimenters. I hope Lady Gaga is happy to hear that she has even littler monster fans than she ever anticipated. [NY Daily News] Keep reading »

Katy Perry Hears The Siren Call Of The Mermaid, Too

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comAugust 11, 2011 //

Katy Perry is hopping on the mermaid train? Err, tail? Just a few weeks after Lady Gaga unveiled her alter ego Yuki, the mermaid in a wheelchair, and was accused of ripping Bette Midler’s mermaid routine from 1980, Katy Perry is breaching the water and showing off her mermaid costuming for a new video. So, will Gaga accuse Katy of stealing the idea? Not directly. But Gaga’s creative director, Laurieann Gibson, did tweet, “Proud of my artist #1 in the world @Ladygaga her vision& passion even though they try to steal a tail there’s only 1 Mermaid, Swim On!!!”

So what do we think—is there enough room for two mermaids in the pop music sea? And another pic of Katy’s costume after the jump. Keep reading »

Lady Gaga Morphs Into Sir Gaga In Cover Art For “Yoü and I”

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comAugust 8, 2011 //

Lady Gaga has promised us that her 1,000th tweet will be the fourth single off Born This Way, “Yoü and I.” And since we are only eight tweets away, over the weekend Gaga posted the cover art for the single along with the message, “You will never find what you are looking for in love, if you don’t love yourself.” The image is, of course, Gaga herself as her male alter-ego, Joe Calderone. I gotta say—Gaga is a much prettier lady than she is a dude. Also, is the umlaut in “Yoü and I” and ode to Lüc Carl? [NY Mag] Keep reading »

Lady Gaga’s Meat Dress Saved For Posterity By Dedicated Taxidermist

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comAugust 2, 2011 //

I know it’s a question that has kept you up at night for months—whatever happened to Lady Gaga‘s meat dress? Apparently, it did not end up as maggot food. After Gaga wore the dress at the 2010 VMAs, her handlers stuck it in the freezer, though parts were already decomposing a tad. From there, the dress went to a California taxidermist by the name of Sergio Vigalato. It took him almost four months, but he was finally able to preserve the dress in a form that doesn’t need refrigeration. And the garment is now on display at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland. The moral of this story is: it’s better to eat your meat than wear it. And this is coming from a vegetarian.

Beyonce Loves On Lady Gaga

Julie GersteinJuly 30, 2011 //

“I love Gaga. I mean, if she didn’t perform and she wasn’t a singer, just as a human being I love her to death. But on top of it, she is the most talented pop star right now, and I’m so happy for her. It’s just really inspiring to see someone who just creates their own destiny and comes up with their own looks and writes their own songs and choreographs and is in control and is not contrived. If you took away every bit of costume and she just sat in front of a piano, she would still tear it down. She’s just that talented, and she deserves it all. And I’m just happy to work with her. I love her.”

– Beyonce shares her respect for her “Telephone” and “Videophone” collaborator, Lady Gaga. See, there can be more than one diva in the house. [PrideSource] Keep reading »

Lady Gaga’s Latest Madonna Move: Releasing A Sexy Coffee Table Book

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comJuly 29, 2011 //

 

Lady Gaga maintains that “Born This Way,” complete with the high blonde ponytail styling, was not a rip-off of Madonna’s “Express Yourself.” But now it looks like Gaga is taking another page from Madge’s fame playbook. Gaga is releasing her own photo book, which will be called Lady Gaga, and will contain 350 color and black-and-white photos of her, snapped by Terry Richardson. Richardson apparently followed her for 10 months while she was on tour and recording her new album to create these images. [Huffington Post]

But this book of course, reminds me a whole lot of Madonna’s coffee table book for perverts, Sex. Keep reading »
