Lady Gaga has described her Monsters Ball tour, currently wreaking havoc across Europe, as “the first-ever pop-electro opera.” According to a press release, Gaga plans to make the upcomin g is new, leg of the tour “even more eye-popping” than the first.
So… get ready.
Live Nation’s global touring CEO Arthur Fogel said in a statement:
“Lady Gaga has set out to revolutionize pop music and with her new production she continues to do exactly that. We’re thrilled to take the Monster Ball to fans around the world.”
Ms. Gaga just released her nine-minute long video for “Telephone.” The video, which Lady Gaga has noted was inspired by Quentin Tarantino, features Beyonce breaking Lady Gaga out of a women’s prison, some girl-on-girl action and a sexy dance sequence. It’s pretty much exactly what you might expect from a Lady Gaga music video.
