Gaga's new songs 'killer' says Sir Elton, who's writing with her

Be The First To Comment



Sir Elton John is working with Lady Gaga on her new album, which she said will be released this year.
The friends will join each other in the studio this week to work on Gaga's fifth studio album.
Elton's heard two of the songs so far and has already said they sound "killer".
He added that he won't be afraid to say what he really thinks about her other new tracks too.
The Oscar nominee's last full pop album, Artpop, was released in 2013.
Tracks included Applause and Do What U Want, featuring R. Kelly.
Since then she's done a collaborative album with Tony Bennett, 2014's Cheek to Cheek.
But these are the brand new tracks fans have been eagerly awaiting.
"I'm writing with Gaga," Sir Elton confirmed to Beats 1 Radio.
"I've heard two songs, which are killer. They're just great songs. It's like back to the early stuff of hers, like You and I and Bad Romance," he said.
t seems he won't be afraid to hold back either.
"Artpop was not a great idea. It was not a good album and I think she would admit that," Elton said.
"Then in the midst of that, she did three things which were kind of amazing.
"She did the whole tour and album with Tony Bennett, which did amazingly well. She sang the Julie Andrews tribute at the Oscars, which everybody loved. And she was on American Horror Story."
He said: "I think she's a great writer. To me, she is Stefani Germanotta and I love her and I care about her - she's godmother to my two children.
"I want her to go and make a kind of simple, fabulous, great song record."

Lady Gaga wins Born This Way plagiarism case against French artist

Be The First To Comment

Lady Gaga has reportedly won a court battle accusing her of stealing images for her 2011 Born This Way album.
French artist Orlan was asking for 7.5% of the royalties made by the star's record.
That amounts to $31.7m (£28.3m) of the eight million global sales for her second studio album.
The case claimed that Gaga had stolen concepts from two sculptures including a 1989 piece called Bumpload and Woman with Head from 1996.
It was argued that the work had been copied in both the album artwork, as well as in a scene from the music video of the same name, where severed heads appear on a table.
The case also considered Lady Gaga's reading out of The Manifesto of Mother Monster as a reference to Orlan's Manifeste de l'art charnel (Manifesto of Carnal Art).
According to The Art Newspaper, the court's ruling found that an artistic installation cannot be reduced solely to its physical elements.

The ruling also stated that Orlan must pay Lady Gaga and her record label 10,000 euros (£8,390) each, as dictated by France's legal code for civil proceedings.
Orlan told Artnet news that she intends to appeal against the decision.
