ReidOne 12,427 Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 I've been waiting a LONG time to take this adventure, and my birthday weekend was the perfect time! I drove 90 minutes deep into the desert outside LA to visit the Four Aces movie set where Lady Gaga & Beyonce filmed one of my all-time favorite videos... Telephone!!! Unfortunately the *** Wagon was not there... ...but mine was! LOL... Not gonna lie, I let out an audible squeal when I pulled up here. Peeking into the diner. The Four Aces movie set is used for LOTS of productions. It's also been in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Calvin Harris music videos, and tons of movies. It is in the middle of NOWHERE. It's taken me years to visit because it's quite the trek to get out here. Here it is!! Beyonce's booth! Gaga stood right here when she served Tyrese his lethal meal. The motel rooms, where Beyonce filmed her solo sequence! Me with a telephone on the set of Telephone, lol. In case you were wondering... I got about 20 minutes of time on the property before the security guy in the pick-up truck on the right finally told me I had to leave. Luckily he was... yes... on the "telephone" when I arrived and not paying attention so I was able to get close-up pics, haha. He was really nice though, it wasn't awkward for the record. And as I was leaving, another car of 30-something guys pulled up and was doing the same thing I was. HA! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg 6,330 Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 That's so awesome! I'd love to visit the set! Have you been to Universal Studios? There's a 'ride' that drives you through the sets, and you drive through the Judas set. They also demonstrate their tidal wave set which is where Gaga stood for the wave scene! It was so awesome to see! TEOG was filmed there too, but I don't remember seeing that specific set. Your photos are amazing! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
