Rap-Up.com || Lady Gaga Gets Cheeky in ‘Born This Way’ Promo Photos

We got our paws on more striking photos from Lady Gaga’s Born This Way promotional shoot. In the black-and-white images shot by photographer Mariano Vivanco, the lady of pop wears a black latex Mugler coat designed by her stylist Nicola Formichetti. Mother Monster bares her bottom with her tattooed back exposed as she teeters in platform heels with a shoe on her head, later bringing out the claws and showing her teeth in a close-up shot.

Gaga revealed that she will co-direct the video for her next single “Judas” with choreographer Laurieann Gibson, who helmed Keri Hilson’s controversial “The Way You Love Me” clip. She previewed the lyrics during her recent visit to Google. “When he comes to me I am ready/ I’ll wash his feet with my hair if he needs/ Forgive him when his tongue lies through his brain/ Even after three times he betrays me/ I’ll bring him down/ A king with no crown,” she sings.

Little monsters, eat up two more photos from the avant-garde shoot below.

When Madonna was in her prime, she never seem like a gimmick.

A complete utter mess…she tries so hard to be different…these promo pics could have been hot if she left out a few things. She needs to get rid of this alien-like make-up…her ass is human and she needs to just deal. And if it wasn’t for that profile shot, I would had sworn that she had a dildo on her damn head.

She’s a great artist but bullshit like this is overshadowing her music.

This is how she gets her singles top the chart. By doing eccentric things. I hate her for this. I am sure that she would not have so much success if she stops doing her stupidities. Lady GaGa, if you have true talent, release a single without giving countless of interviews, practically begging people to buy it:
where it was recorded
who produced it
who wrote it
the inspiration behind
blah blah blah

One more thing, do not film a video or even if you do one, then wear decent clothes. We will see what happens.

Lady Gaga is Winning. She is on top. Her tour like year grossed over a 100 Million dollars. She better not change a thing. I can not knock her hustle.

I wish to first say i am not black (I am not racist). I have just clarified this because i have a question to ask. How would people react if Beyonce or Rihanna did such a disgusting thing? Sorry for my foul language but everyone would call them whores. So Lady GaGa should get the same treatment. She is the real whore. PLEASE TAKE A BREAK.

Funny how people saying GAGA is a FLOP. How many Grammy’s has she one ? How many number 1′s does she have ? How unique does she stand out in the music industry itself ?

OH. Think again before Flopping Gaga.
Betch.

I don’t see why so many people hate her so much, she is kind and helpful to others, and she is inspirational, so what if she has her own style. It’s upto her and herself to make that decision not you haters, and another thing if you dont like her, why are you so interested in writing about her?! Anyway – Paws up lil monsters! :D
