i just LOVE how you regurgitate stuff from Perez Hilton. Bravo!!!!!

         

Here is a vimeo link that looks pretty sharp - vimeo.com

Great fun. Weird, unexpected and fetish-tastic.

The opening was the sloooow and boring kind of self-indulgent, but after that it went crazy in a very good way. Love the 80s glam rock guys(?) licking her shoes.

Were the old-time credits and the house a Citizen Kane reference?

         

@mva: sigh, I first saw the video on Perez's blog and then searched youtube, dailymotion, prod co. sites, and finally did a google search. apparently my google-fu isn't strong but if your implication is that i'm some spammer for perez then i resent that. i thought antvillians would want to see this video and so i posted it. anyhow, 30f had a more 'benign' link and so i've used it (thanks 30f).

P.S. - I just did a bit more research and discovered that the person who put up the vimeo version of Paparazzi is also a blogger. So, mva, I feel as if I'm supposed to ask, is it okay if my link goes to vimeo if the video's poster is a blogger? Any netiquette tips or righteous indignation in this instance?

         

So far, this and Khan's Katy Perry video are the most compelling of the year.

Gaga makes a strong argument in favor of mega-huge pop videos. Her song is a really great slice of pop, but this video is what's going to solidify her A-list status.

         

hahaha. "Lady no more GaGa"

         

I've been waiting for this, as i think its a perfect pairing and it was worth the wait in my opinion. This video definitely referenced Melanie Pullens "High Fashion Crime Scenes" which I see no problem in other than that i've been waiting for the right track to do the same :-(. Overall loved it.

         

i think it's a very well made glossy pop promo. glitter and litter are just one letter apart, indeed. also i like the fact that at 3:38 she doesn't seem to be wearing any underwear.

         

Lady Gaga would sell her grandmother to get into the charts.

         

Based on a South Park episode? :)

         

This is a perfect coupling of artist and director for sure.

         

@jesse - the britney one?

         

Love it, well done! Completely riveting to watch.

         

OK, finally saw it on Kanye's blog. Er... wow. The few entertaining bits of it (the fashion murders) drowned in rather a tide of self indulgence. I was bored by the time we got to the song.

(Also, in my opinion, not one of GaGa's strongest songs, so can't hold up that much extra weight.)

         

Well pissed the video leaked? "Stop leaking my mo'kin' videos" over on myspace

That seems the sharpest file on the net at the moment!

         

full of plenty of total akerlund moments, even if he does seem a bit bored.

liked it in a pop way

         

Oh, the irony of Kanye leaking Gaga's video... I think that's made my day.

         

Who the fuck is Perez Hilton?

         

^^Fanboy but also some kind of Hollywood Gay Rights Activist Gets up the nose of the American (Christian) Right AKA: Mario Armando Lavandeira

         

Figuring out what any of that is supposed to mean is an exhausting prospect. Some amusingly insane costuming in there, especially the Sorayama-robocripple.

Since i didn't see a working link here.. www.youtube.com

         

making of... bebo

         

anyone know where I can get a high-res version of this video? preferably in quicktime?
