Support NeoGAF

[royalan]

Revealed in an article with WWD magazine. This will be the cover art for her new single, titled Applause.

What say ye GAF?

 

[I am Michael Bolton]

She's looking better

 

[Solo]

15 minutes are up.

 

[Frustrated_me]

Kinda cool?

 

[NomarTyme]

Katy Perry is better.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

She's a mess.

 

[Chinner]

who?

 

[bob_arctor]

Looking forward to the single. I never got caught up in whatever style or look she was rockin', just liked her music and talent.

 

[Buckethead]

The picture isn't bad the framing and text is.

 

[Vashetti]

Looks like Jared Leto:

Cautiously hyped for this. I learnt my lesson after believing her that Born This Way (the song) would be amazing.

 

[Rocket Punch]

fART

 

[Fey]

repent yall this is gonna slay

 

[IceCold]

Looks like they put makeup on her and then she started bawling because no one cares about her music anymore except for pop-gaf.

 

[SJRB]

More like "Lady Haha" amirite?

 

[Trigger]

I like it from an artistic perspective, but I really hope this isn't an era of pretentiousness. I like Lady Gaga more when she's tongue in cheek.

 

[twobear]

Looks good, Leigh Bowery, blah blah blah.

 

[wenis]

Ehh, I like it.

 

[Poker Face]

15 minutes are up.

Nope.

It's not what I expected, based on what we've seen for promo so far. I really like it though.

 

[NameGenerated]

 

[Servbot24]

It's a good cover.

 

[Jitters]

Noice.

 

[Dr. Malik]

All of this commotion just for a single cover, only Gaga

 

[Mau ®]

I think the single cover is fantastic. I love it.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

repent yall this is gonna slay

Stop it.

 

[titiklabingapat]

Better than fake bone prosthetics.

 

[survivor]

I like it.

 

[botty]

Well, Jared is synonymous with art and beauty, but I don't see it here. The cover is nice, though.

 

[Replicant]

Have to say the replies thus far have made me cackling non-stop.

 

[Ahasverus]

eeeeh I like it
I'm really curious to say the least about this recent direction of hers

 

[SecretMoblin]

reminds me a bit of

 

[botty]

reminds me a bit of

which in turn...

 

[Ollie Pooch]

I like it from an artistic perspective, but I really hope this isn't an era of pretentiousness. I like Lady Gaga more when she's tongue in cheek.

The comment at the end of the article about going as a fried egg instead of hard boiled gives me hope.

 

[caesar]

15 minutes are up.

lol

 

[3phemeral]

reminds me a bit of

Not the same since that's popart/fauvism and this is based off of pantomime face-painting.

 

[Riposte]

Do you wanna know how I got these scars?

 

[Artemisia]

I don't like it much.

I wanted something like this:

 

[KefkaPalazzo]

Return of the Queen. I like it.

 

[paperheart]

It's a great single cover.

 

[Rookje]

Has the song come out yet?

Anyways, I like it.

 

[magnetic]

Vaguely reminds me of this:

The graphic design has a very 80s look to it.

Not HAHA NEON EVERYWHERE 80s, I mean actual 80s. (Looking at it again, though, the Kate Bush cover has a quite ugly typeface, I like the handwriting on the Gaga cover a lot more.)

 

[mltplkxr]

It looks like it references Pierrot. Not Kabuki.

 

[botty]

It looks like it references Pierrot. Not Kabuki.

it is a reference to Pierrot, but just watch as people attempt to compare it to other things for fun.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Is she pulling off a Bowie?

 

[Sydle]

I like it.

Have there been any leaks or demos of the new album? I am so curious about what she does next and if she can top Fame/Fame Monster. Also wondering if she can come up with something as great as Heavy Metal Lover again...I've played that song 1000s of times.

 

[royalan]

It looks like it references Pierrot. Not Kabuki.

I'm aware of the Pierrot reference. But the use of bright colors in thick, downward curves reminded me more of Kabuki. Hence, my shady title.

 

[PS3GamerKyle]

I like it!

Gaga <3

 

[mltplkxr]

Oh, Yeah. It has none of the outrageous hair though. Nor the costume.

 

[tmarques]

More like Cirque du Soleil.

 

[Koodo]

She has the color of every girl in the game smeared all over her face. The remains of their devoured wigs.

 

[JaCy]

Now the wait until Aug. 19.
