What We're Listening To: Lady Gaga - Applause

Let the media storm begin, with mobile apps, magazine covers, and numerous promotional engagements,  Lady Gaga releases her first single "Applause" August 19, 2013, from her upcoming album ArtPop which will be released November 11, 2013.  The video is visually entertaining and the sound of the single is reminiscent of 80's pop music combined with an 8 bit theme.  

What We're Listening To : Katy Perry - Roar / Lady Gaga - Applause

Both Katy Perry and Lady Gage release new singles.  Katy Perry released "Roar" and Lady Gage released "Applause".  I have a feeling we will be hearing a lot of these songs for a while.  (This is a compliment to both performers.)  Now, I like both songs.  Ask me again in about two years and I will know for sure if I really like them both.

Lady Gaga gets a lot of comparison to Madonna, but does anyone see the comparison to the Missing Persons?

Barney's NYC Holiday Window Sneak Peek

It may be hard to follow up Barneys Gaga's Work Shop from last year's holiday season, but here is a sneak peek of this year's creation.  Barneys is collaborating with Disney to transform some of the beloved Disney characters like Mickey Mouse, Goofy, Daisy Duck, Cruella de Vil, Princess Tiana, and Snow White into high fashion models wearing unique designer clothes.  And, like only Disney can, there will be spectacular elements to this year's holiday flagship.   The cast will be making their way down the runway in a amazing laser light production and short film.  This sounds pr~etty cool.

You Better Work! Vogue September Issue 2012

 

It's the Fashion New Year!  The Vogue September Issue is hitting shelves.  916 pages of fashion and Lady Gaga pictured on the cover is giving us Rupaul Realness!  After Gaga posted the cover on her Twitter account the web blew up with so many tweets making the comment "Gaga looks like Rupaul!",  so Gaga tweeted that she agreed.  LOL!  Absolutely Fabulous!  Can't wait to get my hands on it!

80's Flashback: Missing Persons Destination Unkown

Long before Lady Gaga was even a twinkle in anyone's eye, back when there were actually videos on MTV there was the amazing Dale Bozzio and the band Missing Persons.  Now, those were the days.   Honestly, I have no idea what this video is about - I don't know if she's being kidnapped? I don't know if she is drunk on fashion?  Maybe she overdosed on AquaNet?  We don't know?!  But rest assured, they are definitely high on the 80's.  Enjoy this blast from the past.  Here's the Missing Persons with "Destination Unknown."
