Lady Gaga Attends 'Joker' Premiere in Los Angeles

After last week's extensive press tour to promote "Joker: Folie à Deux" and its companion album "Harlequin," Lady Gaga walked the black carpet at the film's Los Angeles premiere, hosted at the city's TCL Chinese Theatre. 
 

 
Gaga stunned on the carpet with bleached brows and a muted red lip. She wore a black, floor-length dress with an accentuated, puffy shoulder sleeve and a crimson red wig. She adorned the outfit with a red-and-green jeweled necklace, black earrings and, of course, her engagement ring. 
 

 
As she was fielding interview questions on the carpet, Variety asked Gaga when she'll do a "full-on superhero movie," leading her to react with a coy shrug. 
 
 
Gaga plays Harleen "Lee" Quinzel opposite Joaquin Phoenix in the sequel to 2019's "Joker," which received an Academy Award nomination for Best Picture. The two stars shared a hug on the black carpet ahead of the premiere. 
 

 
The official Los Angeles premiere comes after a series of screenings in Venice, London and a press screening in Los Angeles last week. 
Following the premiere, Gaga hosted a live taping of "Harlequin" with fans. 
While in Los Angeles, Gaga will film a performance for Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Oct. 1. 
"Joker: Folie à Deux" hits theaters internationally on Oct. 4, 2024.

Lady Gaga Guests at Graham Norton Show

Lady Gaga appeared on the Graham Norton Show on tonight (Friday, Sept. 27) to promote her new film "Joker: Folie à Deux" and its companion album, "Harlequin." 

Gaga sat on Norton's infamous red sofa beside Demi Moore, Colin Farrell and Richard Ayoade, dressed in her best Harley Quinn-inspired outfit with cropped, shoulder-length red hair. 
On the show, Gaga spoke about her engagement to her longtime partner Michael Polansky. Gaga confessed how Michael proposed on April 1, 2024 – also known as April Fool's Day. Naturally, the first thing she did was laugh, thinking it was a joke. 
It was no joke, and while she said yes, she explained how she wanted to keep the whole thing a secret – until she was caught, on video, introducing Michael as her fiancé to French Prime Minister Gabriel Attal at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games. 
Gaga first spoke publicly about her engagement to Vogue US, where she revealed her mother was the matchmaker who set them up. Gaga recalled how her mother told her, "I think I just met your husband."
Since the engagement, Gaga and Michael released their first artistic collaboration together, "Harlequin."
In a now-cut segment, Gaga revealed that she's "99% free" of pain from her fibromyalgia. 
Gaga first spoke about her experience with the chronic illness in Netflix's "Gaga: Five Foot Two" documentary. Fibromyalgia is characterized by widespread, chronic pain, and is also associated with sleep, memory and mood problems. 
The disorder caused Gaga to cancel multiple shows due to severe muscle spasms and tightness. 
Of course, Gaga had fun with the other guests sharing the red sofa with her. She was introduced to Demi Moore's dog, Pilaf, and the two seemed to hit it off quite nicely.

Gaga will next appear on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Oct. 1, 2024. 
"Harlequin" is out everywhere, and physical copies can be purchased here.

Lady Gaga Releases New Album, 'Harlequin'

Just three days after its official announcement, Lady Gaga has released her new album, “Harlequin.” 
The project serves as a companion piece to the film “Joker: Folie à Deux,” in which Gaga stars as Harleen “Lee” Quinzel opposite Joaquin Phoenix. 
While “Harlequin” includes 11 covers featured in the film and its soundtrack, Gaga re-recorded the songs with new and reimagined production, plus two original songs, “Folie à Deux” and “Happy Mistake.” 
In an interview with press at the London premiere of “Joker: Folie à Deux,” Gaga spoke to the inspiration behind creating the album, citing her “really, really personal” experience with her character, Lee.
“When we were done with the movie, I just wasn’t done with her,” Gaga said. “So, because I’m not done with her, I made ‘Harlequin.’ ”
 
 
The idea of duality between Gaga and Lee manifests in "Happy Mistake," one of the album's original compositions. 
“I wrote ‘Happy Mistake’ as a reflection on and a celebration of all the darkness that has healed me before, and all the dual identities I’ve carried,” Gaga told fans at an exclusive listening party in London ahead of the album’s release. 
At the listening party, Gaga played the album twice through as she danced with fans just hours after “Joker: Folie à Deux" premiered. 
 
 
In an interview with Zane Lowe, Gaga described the album as “vintage pop,” though the album contains influences of jazz, gospel, showtunes, soul and pop standards. 
Gaga is expected to release a music video for "The Joker," originally performed by Shirley Bassey, as she posted a clip of herself dancing to the track at the Louvre Museum in Paris. Earlier this month, she was photographed at the museum as a film crew set up outside. 
 
 
Gaga first teased "Harlequin" with a series of cryptic Instagram posts, each with a phrase against a plain background: "I'm ready for my interview," "Don't tell me what to wear," "No duct tape no mission," "Moondust gets everywhere" and "Still not October," the latter being a reference to a post she made at the 81st Venice International Film Festival that revealed the lead single of LG7 is coming in October. 
On Monday, Sept. 23, mysterious billboards alluding to "LG6.5" appeared in New York City and Los Angeles. The next day, Gaga formally announced the album.
 

 
“Harlequin” marks Gaga’s first artistic collaboration with her fiancé Michael Polansky, who is credited as a writer on four songs. 
Each song is produced by Lady Gaga and her frequent collaborator Benjamin Rice, with the exception of "Happy Mistake," produced by Rice, Lady Gaga and BloodPop, and "That's Life," produced by Lady Gaga, David Campbell and Jason Ruder. 
Check out the album's writing credits below: 
 
“Good Morning”
Written by Arthur Freed, Lady Gaga, Michael Polanksy and Nacio Brown.
 
“Get Happy (2024)”
Written by Harold Allen, Lady Gaga, Michael Polansky and Ted Koehler.
 
“Oh, When the Saints”
Traditional.
 
“World on a String”
Written by Harold Allen and Ted Koehler.

“Smile” 
Written by Charlie Chaplin, John Turner and Geoffrey Parsons. 
 
“The Joker”
Written by Leslie Bricusse and Anthony Newley

Written by Dean Kay and Kelly Gordon.

Lady Gaga Arrives at 'Joker' Premiere in London

After a long week of press – and a new album announcement – Lady Gaga arrived at the London premiere of “Joker: Folie à Deux” with her fiancé Michael Polansky. 
The couple walked the carpet together, with Gaga donning a red-and-black bob and a red, puffy-shouldered jacket over a matching, floor-length gown.

Her makeup contrasts with the rest of the look, as her bleached brows, heavy blue eyeshadow and a single, glitter tear streak stand out against the all-red ensemble. 
The look’s color palette is similar to that of the cover of “Harlequin,” Gaga’s companion album to “Joker," releasing this Friday, Sept. 27. 
Gaga stopped for photos with co-star Joaquin Phoenix and director Todd Phillips, a pop of color between their black-and-white suits.

On the carpet, Gaga fielded questions from reporters and took photos with fans ahead of the screening.
Gaga plays Harleen “Lee” Quinzel in the sequel to 2019’s “Joker.” The film first premiered at the 81st Venice International Film Festival, where both Gaga and Phoenix received acclaim for their performances. 
The film’s international theatrical release kicks off on Oct. 2, 2024.

REVIEW: Joker Folie à Deux

I had the honor of attending the premiere of "Joker: Folie à Deux" at the 81st Venice Film Festival on September 4th, 2024. Despite the growing hype around the movie, I attended the premiere with no expectations. While the first trailer revealed incredible cinematography and set the stage for an intriguing story, the second one didn't add much or show enough to drastically change my expectations. So, I decided to sit through the whole screening and let the images speak for themselves.
It's important to mention that I wasn't among the detractors of the first movie; I liked it, and it's a good film. I loved how it depicted the story of someone with mental health issues from an inner perspective, allowing the audience not to justify but to understand the main character's different point of view. The fact that it coincides with the iconic name of "Joker" was a bonus for me. In my opinion, the story could stand on its own without the burden of that name. But to be completely honest, I still recall leaving the cinema thinking about a few scenes that felt more like "viral marketing material" than functional parts of the movie itself. However, I guess they worked in the end, as those scenes helped the first movie win at Venice that year and earned it 11 nominations and 2 wins at the Academy Awards. I still think it was a bit overrated.
Anyway, let's jump to the present. As I did with "A Star is Born" and "House of Gucci," I'm going to divide this review into two parts: a spoiler-free one and one where I openly discuss all the scenes. Feel free to continue reading and skip the second part if you wish. Also, I’m not going to give it a score, as I feel it's too reductive. In the meantime, thank you for reading.
Joker: Folie à Deux - Spoiler-Free Review
Let's start with the elephant in the room: "Joker: Folie à Deux" is a good movie with some problems. There is no way to sugarcoat it. The film has a very solid structure, and the original idea works, but it doesn’t commit to its own premises. The musical numbers are incredible, but alas, too short. There are no huge or epic choreographies like in "La La Land," even though the set design allows for it. The story is not as dark as the first one, but the dark vibes remain. The musical numbers were honestly my favorite part, but I genuinely wished they lasted longer. Just like I wished Lady Gaga had more screen time. Given the marketing campaign focused so heavily on both leads, I expected more scenes centered around her, but maybe that’s just my fan side talking.
Gaga's acting is incredible. She has improved a lot since "House of Gucci" even though she doesn’t really have too many parts to stand out for long. I won’t even comment her vocal skills on this movie. Each song made me laugh thinking about her claims of “unlearning” how to sing. She sings effortlessly, and it's easy to see why she was chosen for this role.
Many scenes in the movie are simply breathtaking. The setup, the set design, the lighting. Each frame of this movie feels like a painting. For example, the song that Lady Gaga wrote for the movie (the "waltz") blends seamlessly and I hope it will get so much recognition in the upcoming awards season, even thought it doesn’t last too long.
Gaga and Joaquin are so magical together that I wished they had a joint single to promote, like "Shallow," to promote their chemistry together outside the movie. Their confidence on screen is incredible, and the fact that I wanted much more from this movie still proves how good the premises are.
I absolutely agree with the reviews that call it "daring." The musical aspect was fundamental and key to the movie. I am clearly not one of those who gets the “ick” when characters start singing in musicals, but I did feel that some transitions were less smooth than others. This might indeed rub those viewers who dislike sudden musical interludes the wrong way, even though most songs blend perfectly into the story and feel totally natural. The movie is in fact NOT a proper musical, in fact all the “dancing” scenes are put in a context that it doesn’t feel out of place with the scene.
I loved how each song coincided with his internal emotional earthquakes. There's one song in particular, sung by Joaquin, that old Gaga fans will instantly recognize and give them the biggest smile. 
Joaquin is incredible. Even though the movie has all those problems, he manages to land on his feet and deliver a breathtaking performance, worthy of the first movie. His Oscar nomination is assured, and I really hope Gaga's is as well, although it’s going to be tough given the strong female contenders this year.
Maybe I overhyped myself dreaming of huge Chazelle-style numbers and another "Shallow" moment that never arrived, but nonetheless, the whole movie is good and worth watching. Joaquin is amazing, and Lady Gaga is undoubtedly on the right path to her next great role.
Joker: Folie à Deux - Spoiler Review
In this version of the review, I’m going to talk about the things I liked and didn’t like, still trying not to spoil the whole movie in the process.
The main problem with the movie is the same that "House of Gucci" had; at some point, Lady Gaga isn’t as present as before. Even though this decision makes sense for plot reasons, it was a bit disappointing to see her always (and literally) in the background. She has to be there since most of the movie revolves around the courtroom, but I still wished they interacted more in the second half. It makes sense that "The Joker" returns as the main and pivotal part of the story in the final act of the movie, but I still wish they'd emphasized the "Folie à Deux" aspect more. The character of Lee influences the whole movie and the decisions Joker makes, but still, if they had focused more on that dynamic, I’m sure the ending would feel less like a series of events and more like a genuine conclusion. I don’t know how fans of the comics will react seeing the roles of Joker and Gaga swapped, it’s a different take that I really enjoyed even though it didn’t end up with the explosive ending that it promises.
I’m not sure why they didn’t include the leaked performance of "That's Entertainment" that Gaga does on the Joker steps. Maybe they felt there were too many musical numbers? But then why not remove one or two songs and make the remaining ones last longer?
I’m not upset about how that scene turned out, anyways, I just wonder how it could have been if they had included the one we saw.
My favorite performance in the movie was undoubtedly the song Gaga performs on the piano while Joker does a tap dance. To me, that makes the whole movie worth watching. She sings so well that I wish that scene lasted two hours, just like the scene where Joaquin started singing "Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered," my heart stopped for a minute, and I was thrown back to the "Cheek to Cheek" era with little shivers all over my body.
I hope DC fans and Little Monsters will enjoy the movie anyways, but it’s surely gonna stir many mixed reactions. 

“That’s all folks!”

Lady Gaga Graces The Cover of Vogue & Announces New Album

Lady Gaga is gracing the cover of Vogue's October US issue. The artist announced the news with a new photoshoot and a lengthy interview, where she revealed the release month of her new untitled album, discussed her role in “Joker: Folie à Deux,” and spoke openly for the first time about her relationship with her fiancé, Michael Polansky.

You can read quotes from the interview below.
Talking about her new album:
  “There’s a lot of pain associated with this adventure,” she says, “and when I start to explore that pain, it can bring out another side to my artistry. When I’m here at this studio, I’m relaxed and I am able to face my demons and what’s remarkable is…that’s the music. I’m able to hear it back.”

In a following statement, Vogue revealed that Lady Gaga’s new album will be released in February 2025, with the first single expected in October 2023.

Talking about her love for her peers:
Charli XCX, Chappell Roan, Billie Eilish. “I mean, I really love them. I go on the internet and, like, cry. And I love Taylor Swift too. And Kesha. I watch it all, and I’m like: Yup. Go! Just Go.” Here, her voice cracks and her eyes well up with tears. “I’m not only cheering them on, I want them to know that my heart is in it with them. And I want them all to feel really happy.”

Talking about how she met her fiancé:
“My mom met him, and she said to me, ‘I think I just met your husband,’ and I said, ‘I’m not ready to meet my husband!’ I could never have imagined that my mom…found the most perfect person for me?” Flash forward to December 2019: Parker’s 40th birthday party at his house in Los Angeles where Stevie Nicks performed. “I got invited, and I said, ‘I wonder if Michael is going to be there,’ and my mom said yes, and so I went to the party, and I kept asking for him, and he finally came over to me, and we talked for three hours. We had the most amazing conversation.” Polansky tells me that he didn’t make it three steps into the party before someone told him that Lady Gaga was looking for him.

About the difficulties with her previous album:
“I think what I want my fans to know is that I’m just, like, so happy. I’m healthy. I feel like the last time they heard from me—in this way—was Chromatica, and that album was about an absolutely horrible time for me with my mental health. I was in a really dark place. I struggled for, like, many years before that. But everything started to change. Because I had a real friend who saw the ways in which I was unhappy and why. And he wasn’t afraid to truly hold my hand. And get to know me. On a very deep level.”

Talking about the waltz she wrote for “Joker: Folie à Deux”:
“I wrote a waltz for the movie,” says Gaga. “And I had a live piano player, Alex Smith, whom I asked to be with me for my scenes. There are moments in the film where I’m playing an adult woman who sings like a little girl. And she’s moving through the world with this kind of immaturity, which I thought was interesting.”

On how she worked on her role of Harley Quinn:
“Harley Quinn is a character people know from the ether of pop culture. I had a different experience creating her, namely my experience with mania and chaos inside—for me, it creates a quietness. Sometimes women are labeled as these overly emotional creatures and when we are overwhelmed we are erratic or unhinged. But I wonder if when things become so broken from reality, when we get pushed too far in life, what if it makes you…quiet?”

Her voice cracks again, and she takes a moment. “I would say that I worked from a sense-memory perspective: What does it feel like to walk through the world and be…braced, in an intense way? And what happens when you cover up all of the complexities beneath the surface?”

How her fiancé convinced her to make a new pop record:
“Michael is the person who told me to make a new pop record. He was like, ‘Babe. I love you. You need to make pop music.’” Says Polansky: “Like anyone would do for the person they love, I encouraged her to lean into the joy of it. On the Chromatica tour, I saw a fire in her; I wanted to help her keep that alive all the time and just start making music that made her happy.”

On how she treats Lady Gaga as a “persona”:
“Man.” She shakes her head. “That’s a big question.” She takes a deep breath. “You know it’s not a persona. It’s not. I am all of these things. The person that I am when I’m onstage in front of 85,000 people? That is also me. That’s like one of the freedoms of my relationship with Michael. It feels really nice to have someone value you whether there’s 85,000 people watching or…the dogs. To see the whole you. And Lady Gaga is the whole me.”

“There was a time in my career when I…. Look….”—she cocks an eyebrow and slips into a self-mocking tone—“where I spoke in an accent in interviews or told lies, but I was performing. Now, it’s a much more palatable mixture of authenticity and imagination. I feel like the world, to a fault, operates in these binaries: You’re either real or you’re fake; you’re authentic or you’re shallow. But for me, I played a lot with artifice. I was fascinated with artifice, really, truly fascinated with it as an artistic tool. I still am. But my relationship to myself as an artist now is more empowered: This is me. This. Is. Me. It’s too complicated to split yourself in two and have to turn it off and on. It’s so much more empowering to be like, I’m a woman, and I’m super complex.”

Lady Gaga's 'Paparazzi' Performance Nominated for 'Most Iconic' at VMAs

Lady Gaga’s epic performance of “Paparazzi” at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards is nominated at this year’s VMA ceremony for “Most Iconic Performance.” 
The Most Iconic Performance category features seven performances across the history of the VMAs, from the 1980s to today. 
This is a fan-voted category. To cast your vote for the winner, check @MTV’s Instagram story between Tuesday, Sept. 10 at 11 a.m. and Wednesday, Sept. 11 at 11 a.m. 
The full list of nominations include: 
Beyoncé – ”Love on Top” (2011) Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Madonna and Missy Elliott – “Like a Virgin”/“Hollywood” (2003) Eminem – “Real Slim Shady”/“The Way I Am” (2000) Katy Perry – ”Roar” (2013) Lady Gaga – ”Paparazzi” (2009) Madonna – ”Like a Virgin” (1984) Taylor Swift – ”You Belong With Me” (2009) Fifteen years after Gaga’s 2009 rendition of “Paparazzi,” many fans still regard it as one of the best of her career.

In a white, embellished one-sleeve top, white bottoms, thigh-high white heels and a curly blonde-pink wig, Gaga took control of the stage with stunning vocals and a “reveal” – fake blood oozing from her heart. 
As she fell to the stage, covered in blood, she was joined by a crew of dancers. At the end, she was left dangling from a rope, blood covering her face and body – even getting in her eye. 
After the night was over, Gaga took home three VMAs: Best New Artist ("Poker Face"), Best Special Effects and Best Art Direction ("Paparazzi").
