Lady Gaga Debuts Creepy, Nude Ad For New ‘Fame’ Fragrance





By Tiffany Lee | Stop The Presses!

Leave it to Lady Gaga to take what could be a tasteful nude and make it as creepy as possible. To promote her debut fragrance called Fame (presumably named after her first album The Fame), the perfume's freshly released print ad features a completely nude Gaga barely covered by strategically placed tiny men crawling all over her!

This certainly isn't the first time that Lady Gaga has appeared practically nude, regularly flashing the goods in strange and skimpy couture pieces and even baring her breasts in fashion editorials (all artfully done, of course). But the fact that Gaga expressed some apprehension about her Fame ad via Twitter makes the image all the more intriguing. If the queen of shock pop is a little nervous, we all should brace ourselves.

The singer tweeted, "i won't lie I'm a bit nervous. its been a while since i've shared some work with you. But i'm so proud of Steven+I, we really did not sleep! (sic)." She's referring to Steven Meisel, the famed photographer who has shot everything from the highest ends of fashion, the biggest celebrities and perhaps most notoriously Madonna's endlessly controversial Sex book. Gaga's Fame ad seems to be a perfect pairing of Meisel's stunning aesthetic and Gaga's twisted taste.

At first glance the ad looks like a "Birth of Venus" body beautiful nude of Lady Gaga with something like tarantulas crawling all over her. But upon closer inspection, the infestation are a hoard of body-by-Zeus, Robert Mapplethorpe-esque muscle men free climbing the singer's body. Gaga looks great. The men individually look great. But the way everything was superimposed, the ad could only be the most gratuitous fetish fantasy for some, or a terrifying nightmare for others--not much room for any shade of gray. Just the way Gaga intended, surely

Fame will come in two sizes, a more affordable small size to be priced at about $30 and a large size dubbed "Le Masterpiece" expected to be priced at more than $70. Fame will hit stores in September and is promoted as being the very first black-colored eau de parfum that will become invisible once sprayed.

Although the creepy, yet intriguing black and white ad may align more with initial reports of Gaga's debut fragrance being inspired by blood and sperm, luckily for Little Monsters the scent will have more of a traditional "floral and fruity" fragrance.

PIC: Lady Gaga Reveals Bruised Face After Onstage Concussion



Us Weekly

Ouch!

If the video footage wasn't enough, Lady Gaga proved just how bad her head injury was Sunday with a photo of her badly bruised face.

The "Born This Way" singer (real name: Stefani Germanotta) tweeted a photo of what appears to be a black eye and bruised left cheek. "Emerging from hours of sleep," she wrote Monday. "Still remiss if I should go outside, with this clonker I may be of questionable styling."

Gaga, 26, suffered a concussion Sunday after she was hit in the head with a pole during a performance in Auckland, New Zealand. A backup dancer accidentally knocked Gaga's head with the set prop while removing it from center stage. The star staggered backwards after getting hit, but managed to finish her show.

However, she's still recovering from the concussion she sustained.

"Thank you so much for all the thoughtful messages," Gaga tweeted to her fans. "I feel a bit woozy but a little better everyday. Very happy to be in beautiful Australia."

Lady Gaga Reigns as Twitter Queen with 25 Million Followers



Stop The Presses!

Lady Gaga's little monsters have helped make her the most popular person in the Twitterverse!

The 26-year-old singer is the first one to have over 25 million followers on Twitter. The social media milestone didn't go unnoticed by the pop star, who is currently on her Born This Way world tour. From the road Gaga tweeted: "#25milliontweetymonsters wow! I'm officially feeling like the luckiest girl in the world today."

The other celebrities rounding out the top five most followed  are Justin Bieber (22.6 million), Katy Perry (20.5 million), Rihanna (19.8 million), and Britney Spears (17.2 million). President Barack Obama isn't that far behind with 16 million.

The  microblogging site has grown tremendously in a short period of time. Just three years ago, Ashton Kutcher, one of the early adopters of Twitter, was all over the news when he hit a then-record breaking 1 million followers. Kutcher, who now trails far behind with about 10.8 million, was soon surpassed by Spears, but not for long. Three months later, in August 2010, Gaga took the lead from Spears and has been at the head of the pack ever since. When Gaga first hit No. 1, she posted a funny video in which she declared herself "Lady Gaga, queen of Twitter." Wearing a white lace hat with the Twitter logo on it and waving a wand, she  thanked her "beautiful little monsters for following me."

Gaga has long expressed her gratitude to those monsters, her now-famous pet name for her loyal fans. "The monsters are my medicine," she told Elton John when he interviewed her for V magazine. "They heal me, physically and emotionally, every night at the show. I feel God through their love. I worship little monsters. They're my religion. Without them I don't exist."

And without them she wouldn't be "queen of Twitter."
