Lady Gaga was a featured segment on today’s episode of Entertainment Tonight. The actress/singer spoke about her role as Patrizia Reggiani in House Of Gucci and the admiration for other Academy Winner actors she wanted to work with such as Tom Hanks, Maryl Streep, and Glenn Close. In the interview, she stated her influences in her acting and how female empowerment inspires her. She said, “I was fascinated with Marilyn Monroe, Princess Diana, Ella Fitzgerald…” and that, “…a woman’s story is not one thing.” A moment when Gaga believed she achieved her dreams was, “…the last performance of the Monster Ball… it rained…” She recalls being immersed in the show and appreciated her community around her. On Bradley Cooper, she stated that she, “…wouldn’t have asked anybody else first about this movie…” She felt inspired by her first major role in A Star Is Born and how he took a chance on her. Lady Gaga also teased her next project. Though she was not ready to divulge any specifics, she did say she has “something in mind”. While the film itself has been somewhat polarizing amongst critics and viewers, Gaga has been continuously praised for her portrayal of Mauricio Gucci’s ex-wife. Lady Gaga has already garnered a few accolades for the role, and is poised to receive her second Best Actress in a Leading Role nomination at the Academy Awards.

Lady Gaga's beauty brand, Haus Laboratories, has just launched their new collection. The Italian glamour inspired collection is titled "Casa Gaga" and features a range of products from lipsticks to highlighters. The release of their Italian glamour line comes just weeks before the worldwide release of "House of Gucci", starring Lady Gaga. Both projects, the film and makeup line, are influenced by Italian culture, which is very important to Gaga. Casa Gaga can be purchased as a collection for $198 USD, or you have the option to purchase pieces of the collection separately. Here's a look at the different products that are part of Casa Gaga. There is a 5-piece set of lipsticks that come in a vegan leather pouch. The lipsticks are inspired by Italian icons and come in 5 different "high impact shades of cushiony, creamy color to define & enhance lips." Along with the lipsticks, this collection includes 3 lipglosses. The gloss collection is called "La Luce Lip Glaze" and features 3 "multi-dimensional, sparkling gloss to transform your lips." Haus Labs notes that these glosses can be worn alone, over lipstick, or on top of their Tutti Gel-Powder All Over Rouge. The Tutti Gel-Powder All Over Rouge, is a "monochromatic cheek & lip duo you need to add a pop of universally flattering color." Simply use a brush (or even your finger!) for this gel-to-powder texture. In addition to the Tutti All Over Rouge, Haus Labs has a Tutti Gel-Powder Highlighter. This highlighter is paired with the vegan Italian Glam Highlighter Brush, giving you everything you need for the perfect glow. One of the most popular products that Haus Labs has released since their debut in 2019, is their Liquid Eye-Lie-Ner. So it is no surprise that their signature jet-black matter-than-matte liner is part of Casa Gaga. The eyeliner is the same beloved formula as the original, but packaged in luxe gold for this collection. Casa Gaga, the limited-edition capsule collection, is available now on hauslabs.com & Amazon.

With the release of Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett’s new album, “Love For Sale” on Friday, the pair were featured in a segment on 60 Minutes. This special interview gave fans a look into the making of the new jazz album and behind the scenes of Bennett’s “Final Act”. Anderson Cooper led the interview as he spoke to Gaga and others about working with Bennett as he battles Alzheimer’s Disease. News of the legendary jazz singer’s dementia came back in February of this year. Gaga and Bennett released their renditions of classic Cole Porter songs as Bennett’s final album. The duo also performed together in a two-night concert event titled “One Last Time” in New York City. The concerts which were held in August, were the final performances of Bennett’s timeless career. Gaga spoke to Cooper about the changes she has had to make when interacting with the legendary crooner. She expressed that keeping it simple is important, questions which he could reply with “yes” or “no” were easier for Bennett to answer than asking him which song he’d prefer to sing. Gaga also noted how Bennett would transform when the music would start, he would know exactly what he was doing and she was mindful “not to get in the way of that.” The "One Last Time" concerts were indeed revealed to be an emotional experience. Footage from the event showed Tony lighting up as soon as the curtains rose. When Gaga made her entrance, he greeted her by saying her name - Gaga later revealed that this was the first time he had done so "in a long time". One Last Time: An Evening With Lady Gaga & Tony Bennett, the concert filmed at Radio City Music Hall, is set to air Sunday, November 28 @ 8PM ET/PT on CBS.

Lady Gaga's makeup brand, Haus Laboratories has just announced the release of their all-new eyeshadow palette. This palette is inspired by the singer's upcoming jazz album with Tony Bennett, both titled "Love For Sale". The concept for the beauty brand has always been to encourage self-expression, creativity, bravery, and kindness. Gaga has spoken many times about the transformative powers of makeup and how it has changed her life. Makeup has played a huge role in the singer's own self-expression, and Gaga has "tried so many different products, so creating makeup that could withstand a stage performance was important to [her]." Every product is tested by Gaga herself, including the all-new Love For Sale palette. The creation of this palette was started back when Gaga and Bennett were recording their album together. Each shade is named after either a song from their album, or a famous jazz singer. Gaga boasts that the palette is completely made in Italy (just like herself), and that it features new and innovative formulas. The singer and entrepreneur spoke to the versatility of the palette and how each purchase makes a difference: "I actually use this palette every single day. And it’s also nice because it’s called Love for Sale. It’s made with love, and it stands for love: One dollar from every purchase on Hauslabs.com will be donated to Tony Bennett’s charity, Exploring the Arts, which provides greater equity and opportunity in the arts for underserved teens." Gaga teased that you can see the palette in action in her upcoming film, as her makeup artist, Sarah Tanno, used it to help the actress transform into the character of Patrizia Reggiani for Ridley Scott's "House of Gucci". She also hinted at a whole new Haus Labs collection that will be released soon as well. For more details, read the full interview here.

Lady Gaga spoke to British GQ about her collaboration with Dom Pérignon. The singer and activist shared how creative freedom, risk-taking and dismantling injustice, are all part of this collaboration. Lady Gaga by Mark Selliger The article detailed how Gaga and her mother, Cynthia Germanotta, celebrated an extremely generous donation to their Born This Way Foundation from Dom Pérignon. The sum of the donation has yet to be announced, due to it being raised by a charity lottery. The lottery gave entrants the opportunity to "win an extraordinarily special, limited-edition sculpture – only 110 of them exist – which forms just one part of the epic, two-year partnership between Lady Gaga and Dom Pérignon, centred on an all-new, limited edition Rosé Vintage from 2006." The limited-edition sculpture was designed by Gaga, Nicola Formichetti, and Dom Pérignon. Gaga described the piece as "It’s full of life and energy [...] What I love about it is that it seems to have momentum and that is something that I wish very much for humanity, that we will have momentum through love.” The notion of love played a vital role in the collaboration, between the sculpture and the video campaign created by Nick Knight. Gaga spoke about the film and sculpture, expressing: “I hope that the love we’ve shared in this collaboration is something that shines through when you watch the film that Nick has made, when you see the sculpture, if you drink the champagne, that you feel the love between us all. That was something that we cared about. I care about it in all of the collaborations that I do, I even became close with the people that work at MGM before I began my show in Vegas. I believe in family, I believe in relationships and I believe that culture should involve realness and authenticity. All of that was infused into this.” The collaboration between Lady Gaga and Dom Pérignon was born from their mutual value in creative freedom. This value became the heart of the campaign. Dom Pérignon's Chef de Cave Vincent Chaperon, said that the reason they reached out to Gaga in the first place was due to “her drive for reinvention, humanity, the fact that she’s the embodiment of creation and innovation herself.” Two years were spent learning about one another and understanding mutual inspiration and connection. Gaga stated that she decided to work with Dom Pérignon once they'd met and began to build an artistic family, “I don’t claim to be an expert in champagne, but I am an expert, I think, in people. They are wonderful people and we’ve worked well together. I think creative freedom is something we’ve enjoyed exploring and it’s created a lot of love and a lot of alchemy between us.” Lady Gaga by Mark Selliger Along with the values of love and creative freedom, there is a shared importance of risk-taking between the collaborators. Chaperon described it as "having the courage to explore the unknown, to go beyond your territory without losing ‘you’", with an emphasis on risk-taking without aggressiveness. Seeing as Gaga is notorious for reinvention while remaining firm on kindness, the pair were a sort of perfect marriage. Gaga was described as "the perfect embodiment of the Dom Pérignon ethos." Chaperon explained that the reason they chose the rosé for the campaign was because “It encapsulates this idea of pushing boundaries, as it is the hardest of all of our wines to produce.” Gaga spoke in more detail about the film that Nick Knight created, expressing her excitement to create something "extremely bold, mesmerising and [that] embodied artistry". The film was centered around the concept of "Queendom" - an idea that was born based on the old saying that champagne was made for kings. Gaga did not like the patriarchal view of champagne, and wanted to show that champagne was made for queens just as much so, "we liked the idea of empowering women as well, or celebrating anyone that would identify with a Queendom, which includes everyone. Whenever possible, if I see a capable moment to dismantle something I believe is not serving humanity, not just the patriarchy, I will put it into the work.” When asked by British GQ what the biggest risk she'd ever taken is, Gaga answered in a way no one could disagree with: “In one way, I could answer that question simply and say my whole career was one big risk.” Gaga was also asked whether there was a moment in the past decade that she was most proud of, to which she replied: “I’m very proud to have heard the stories of so many people around the world and [that I] decided to devote my life to the sharing of those stories. [I’m glad I was able to] meet people, hear their struggles and make that a part of my art [...] Do I believe that art and activism are one in the same? Not always. I believe that art can possess a spirit of activism, but I believe that activism is a lifelong work and it’s one that I’m committed to every day. I’m committed to a lifetime of unlearning.” Dom Pérignon Rosé Vintage 2006 x Lady Gaga is launching exclusively at Harrods for the month of October 2021 and available from wider stockists as of 30 October 2021.

Good Morning Vogue met up with House of Gucci costume designer Janty Yates to discuss the fashion for the film. Most notably, the pair talked about the numerous looks that Lady Gaga wore as she portrayed Patrizia Reggiani. Yates described Patrizia Gucci's style to be "quite extreme" with an excessive amount of jewels that had her "Christmas tree'd up". Gaga had a plethora of looks for the film. Yates noted that the actress had 54 script days and never once repeated anything, not even an earring. While creating the different outfits that Patrizia would wear in the film, Yates praised Gaga for being a "wonderful collaborator" and for thinking out each minute detail to the nth degree. The pair would make decisions on jewelry and accessories based on the mood of Patrizia in that particular scene. The film follows Patrizia through a drastic character arc that Yates helped demonstrate with fashion choices. The costume designer explained that at the beginning of the story, Patrizia is much younger and more simple with cashmere jumpers and little skirts, to full blown glamour with sequins, full dresses, and being "drenched in jewelry". As the film progresses and we see the end of Patrizia and Maurizio's relationship, Gaga can be seen wearing much "stronger" clothing, including leather jackets and even jeans. Yates said that Gaga was adamant about having her character get more "butched up" and that she wanted to dress like her Italian mother. Watch the full interview here. The interview included new official stills of Lady Gaga from House of Gucci. The movie, directed by Ridley Scott, is set to be released on November 24, 2021.

Entertainment Weekly has published a new article and interview with DJWS about ARTPOP and the infamous unreleased ARTPOP Act II. Read an excerpt of the interview below. ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: What is it like for you to see ARTPOP's resurgence eight years later? DJ WHITE SHADOW: Everything is weird! We worked hard on that record and I'm glad it impacted people so much that they're still excited about it. Obviously, people talked about Born This Way and the impact it had on culture, and ARTPOP got stuck in a weird spot. There were a lot of things going on behind the scenes — management shifts for her.... the changing of the guard at Interscope, Jimmy Iovine was [leaving] and John Janick was coming in, and people weren't buying CDs anymore as much as they were streaming. It was wildly confusing. What a f---ed up time to drop a record. In the way that it gets pushed out, the numbers don't always reflect how it went down. That record was in upwards of 3 million in sales. It was a good-selling record, but when you're following [Born This Way selling] 6 million copies, you look like an asshole. EW: I think songs like "Tea" and "Onion Girl" are the two I've seen people talking about the most. Lyrically, what story did those songs tell? DJWS: It's tough for me to talk about lyrics. If her and I were sitting next to each other, I would totally talk about it. But I don't want to step on her like that. I can tell you that they're both good songs. There is a song called "Onion Girl." EW: There was also "I Wanna Be With You," which she performed at the iTunes festival and you co-wrote, morphing to become "Dope" on the album. What happened with that process — how and why did it go from performing that song publicly to it changing into a different song for the album release? DJWS: When we did the iTunes Festival, we hadn't gotten to the point where we were sitting in the studio finishing things completely. So, she wanted to make changes! At the end of the day, it's her art. If we're talking about a car, she comes up with the concept, she goes in and draws it, and I come in with a screwdriver and some wrenches and try and put the car together. Sometimes you have to take the car apart to put it back together the way she wants it, and that's all that is. That's a song that we had a version of, she liked it, and she wanted to do something different. It's not up to me to say no. I would never say no. Let's get this thing out the way she wants to get it together! At the end of the day, "Dope" was the song she wanted on the record, and it just started as something else. I see that happen 500 times, and you guys get to see it once. That's a microcosm of how albums work. You build one idea as A, and you don't go to Z, you go to AAA to five As to five Zs. I'm sure there were 12 iterations between "I Wanna Be With You" and "Dope" that we did. EW: You've played snippets of "Tea" on the road. Are there any other instrumentals you might've played on the road without telling people they're from the album or have any of these instrumentals snuck into other places — whether it's tour interludes or anywhere else? DJWS: No! I asked before I did that. Even if I make the instrumental and I play it for her and she thinks it's cool, out of respect for another human being, I'd always ask. I twisted it a little bit at the end to fit where it was supposed to fit in my personal set. I reproduced part of it. You can read the full interview at EW.com DJWS was a producer on Lady Gaga's 2013 album, ARTPOP. The ambitious EDM album was met with mixed reviews from critics, but eventually became a cult classic. It is one of Gaga's most adored projects by her fans, and is now considered 'ahead of its time'. Gaga had an entire second act that was set to be released, but it ended up being scrapped. Little Monsters have continued to campaign for it to be released one day, a dream that seemed like it would never be realized until April 2021. On April Fools, DJWS posted a joke about one of the ARTPOP Act II songs, "Tea", and fans went into a frenzy. A petition was started to show the love for ARTPOP and the demand for the release of Act II. The petition got thousands of signatures, and ARTPOP went number 1 on iTunes Worldwide. The resurgence of ARTPOP got news outlets buzzing and Lady Gaga herself thanked fans for the love and support.
