People who went backstage last night after the concert in LA said that she said
Quote:
he said that she's creating new technology with NASA, Apple, etc... & it's all for ARTPOP. She said it'll be worth the wait.'
'Gaga told us that ARTPOP is gonna be completely different than any of her previous albums. & she told us that she doesn't wanna release any new music now because she wouldn't be able to promote it properly. So basically new music will be coming after the tour ends.'
"And here's me and my handsome date, I simply cannot wait for our album together, he's my darling," GaGa tweeted, along with a picture of herself and Bennet.
The jazz singer joined GaGa on stage at the White House Staff Ball earlier this week, which took place to celebrate President Barack Obama's inauguration.
GaGa performed stripped-down versions of her hits, including 'Born This Way and 'You And I'.
Meanwhile, producer Zedd recently claimed that GaGa has loads more work to do on her third studio set ARTPOP, which was believed to be released in spring 2013.

This whole courtcase thing is hilarious
Spoiler:
Quote:
Lady Gaga unloaded on a former personal assistant who’s suing her for overtime pay — blasting the woman in a sworn deposition as a “f--king hood rat who is suing me for money that she didn’t earn.”
“She’s just — she thinks she’s just like the queen of the universe,” Gaga ranted, court records obtained by The Post show.
“And, you know what, she didn’t want to be a slave to one, because in my work and what I do, I’m the queen of the universe every day.”
The “Born This Way” singer couldn’t maintain her poker face, either, shooting a nasty aside at ex-aide Jennifer O’Neill near the start of Gaga’s marathon, six-hour testimony in a Midtown Manhattan law office.
“Are you going to stare at me like a witch this whole time — honestly?” Gaga asked.
“Because this is going to be a long f--k ng day that you brought me here.”
Gaga even had some choice words for one of O’Neill’s lawyers, Paul Millus, at one point answering him: “No, no, no. Listen, listen, sir, if you’re going to ask me questions for the next five hours, I am going to tell you exactly what f--king happened, so that the judge can read on this transcript exactly what’s going on.”
Gaga’s foulmouthed assertions came in response to a 2011 suit filed in Manhattan federal court by O’Neill, who claims she’s owed overtime for serving at Gaga’s “beck and call” around the clock while the singer’s career skyrocketed between early 2009 and March 2011.
O’Neill says she put in 7,168 hours of unpaid overtime during two stints working for Gaga — who’s listed in the suit under her real name, Stefani Germanotta — and is owed more than $393,000, plus damages.
During her videotaped Aug. 6 deposition, Gaga said none of her employees get paid overtime, adding that O’Neill “knew exactly what she was getting into, and she knew there was no overtime, and I never paid her overtime the first time I hired her, so why would she be paid overtime the second time?”
“This whole case is bulls--t, and you know it,” she added.
But under questioning, she conceded her decision not to pay overtime wasn’t based on labor laws, but is “actually based on a bubbly, good heart.”
“I’m quite wonderful to everybody that works for me, and I am completely aghast to what a disgusting human being that you have become to sue me like this,” she said.
“Because she slept in Egyptian cotton sheets every night, in five-star hotels, on private planes, eating caviar, partying with [photographer] Terry Richardson all night, wearing my clothes, asking YSL [Yves Saint Laurent] to send her free shoes without my permission, using my YSL discount without my permission.”
“She would only open a couple of bags, and it was very stressful for me because then again on my off days I couldn’t really have a day off because, you know, I weigh 115 pounds, and I was trying to move these huge, big luggages all by myself in the room, and I did it all the time — by the way, she was asleep until 12:00 most of the time, so I was very often waking up and moving my own luggage and doing s--t by myself, and it was — it was a problem that I had,” she said.
And while previous assistants “would like set up my room, and I would know where my clothes were, I would know where my toothbrush was, I would know where my soap and everything was,” Gaga said that when O’Neill “got lazy she didn’t always do those things for me.
“I can’t walk down the street and go buy myself toiletries, I have to call security, I’ve got to call Jen or now I got to call Wendi, I’ve got to get a whole bunch of people together to help me fix the problem, which wouldn’t happen if she was doing her job properly on regular days,” Gaga said.
Gaga also portrayed O’Neill as an ingrate who took for granted the parties, “five-star hotels” and other luxuries — including “caviar, champagne and yachts” — that she got to enjoy as part of Gaga’ s entourage.
“It is, like, such an amazing luxury that I get to travel the world and have planes, she doesn’t even see what a luxury it is, but she thinks it’s owed to her for no reason,” the singer said.
At one point, Gaga bragged about how the night before, her employees enjoyed a “beautiful $3,000 meal that I paid for” at Spiaggia in Chicago, billed as the only four-star Italian eatery in the Windy City.
Gaga said she picked up the tab “just because,” noting, “They were on their day off, and they all just wanted to be with me.”
She also insisted that all her employees work only an eight-hour day — while also noting, “This job is a 9-to-5 job that is spaced out throughout the day.”
GaGa is an intelligent woman, i'm pretty sure people don't give her enough credit for how smart she actually is, she's studied fame, how to get it, how to keep it, and how to avoid losing it
Quote:
"The sociology of fame and how to maintain a certain privacy without feeling like you’re withholding anything from your fans. my philosophy is that if i am open with them with everything and yet i art-direct every moment of my life, i can maintain a sort of privacy - in a way i maintain a certain soulfulness that i have yet to give. hat’s what everyone wants to know; “what she’s going to look like when she dies, what’s she going to look like when she’s overdosed on whatever they think i’m overdosing on?” everyone wants to see the decay of the superstar. of course [people want to see my decay], they want to see me fail, they want to see me fall on stage, they want to see me vomiting out of a night club - isn’t that the age that we live in - that we want to see people who have it all lose it all"
"My whole life is a performance, and it's about pushing the boundaries of pop culture and for myself, deciding where the stage begins and ends, not allowing anyone else [to tell] me when or how I can perform. I can perform when I choose."
She knows that by staging her own downfall shaving her head, smoking weed publicly, wearing extremely controversial clothing (fur), posting photos of herself looking tired and weary that the media will take every little thing out of proportion and blow it up into something massive, like they always do. When in reality it's a performance and just one big controlled demolition.
Gaga's a performance artist, she gets off on it, She loves doing stuff like this on purpose just to sit back and watch how people react to it all. Let her go crazy now so that when ARTPOP drops and she gets back to tip-top shape, everyone will be like, “Wow, she got her **** together, this is amazing"
Her biggest downfall has been Born This Way, I'm sure she didn't plan that.

It wasn't a downfall as such, it just didn't meet the hype, Im pretty sure any of the other pop girls would kill to have an album sell 8 million.
She needed something between The Fame/Monster and ARTPOP that was different. Something that would be held to different standards and scrutinized differently than her first two albums. Without that she couldn’t conclude the Fame trilogy with ARTPOP, because it would have been forced. Gaga had to experience some career tension to ever write effective songs about it, if she wants to be that martyr she needed an album that would stir up some controversy, and physically put her in that realm.
Born This Way served that purpose.
Now she can release ARTPOP, and conclude the Fame trilogy genuinely.

What direction is she taking with it? If she's been working with Zedd, I'm guessing more electronic stuff?
Smithy
03-02-2013 10:51 PM
Yeah, she's worked with Zedd quite a bit, he's the confirmed producer on Burqa & G.U.Y and Tara (GaGa's make up artist) said that their work is a bit like Stache
But even after that she's working with Redone, Fernando Garibay, DJWS & Madeon (whose work is amazing)

She's been talking about the album since August, creating hype, she has a legion of fans who will buy whatever she puts out regardless of it's quality, she's not an artist like Rihanna who needs to drop a new album every year to stay relevant for fear of people realising she's not all that talented and there's a dozen other pop bimbos out there who could easily replace her.
