GaGa - McQueen

As controversial as this post may be I felt I needed to write about this combo before it becomes too old. Lady GaGa, the new pop queen, who seems to have the persona of marmite not only with her music but also her fashions has teamed up with Alexander McQueen to debut his spring/summer 2010 and her new music video. Lately, the new up and comer has collaborated with Beyonce, Gossip Girl and Alexander McQueen in her latest song, Bad Romance. It seems the typical GaGa song when listened to at first with the odd phrases and catchy pop; but the video helps to give the song a real personality. Francis Lawrence, who has worked on 'I am Legend' and with popstars such as Janet Jackson, Britney Spears and Ok Go, directed the video and helped to give it the edgy, asylum looking, and in my opinion modern re-take of thriller. The dance moves are twitchy, awkward and involve a lot of weird claw like motions.

The singer wears at least 10 different custom made outfits including lingerie, a polar bear skin robe, and a sequinned cupcake Alexander McQueen dress fitted with 10 inch stiletto hooves. It's no wonder the pair hooked up, Lady GaGa's sound and styles completely embody Alexander McQueen's range of outrageous designs.

The only trouble i have is the continuing style of GaGa, the constant attention seeking of GaGa's outfits and lifestyle is running slightly cold now. None die hard fans OR fashion followers may see this video as a gross replica of her other ones and could lose the respect and attention Alexander McQueen's work deserves. We can only see in the spring and summer of 2010...
