Lady Gaga: 'I'm putting out a new album this year'

Lady Gaga has finally addressed rumors about the release date for her new album, which fans refer to as LG5. "I am putting out an album this year," the singer and acress told a reporter at the Golden Globes press conference. "I won't tell you when, but it is coming out this year."

When asked whether her role as The Countess on American Horror Story: Hotel will influence the look for the new album era, she added: "That's a difficult thing to say, as I'm still creating all of those things. But what is nice about playing The Countess is that it reminded me that in my own life and in my music I'm at times playing a character, and I become them fully. I think that confidence will stay with me, but who's to say?"

Gaga has been working on the yet-untitled record since 2014. Although she is keeping details about the project under wraps, Gaga posted several teasers of her recording sessions with producer RedOne ("Poker Face," "Bad Romance," "Judas") on Instagram last year.

"With Gaga, I'm fully committed until we're done. We're just going to work on writing songs until we get hopefully the best album of the decade," RedOne said. "The new material feels great. And that's what it is like with me and her – when we both feel great, it's incredible. A lot of it is to do with trust, no ego, just love for the music. And when it's fun and respectful, putting the egos aside, it's magic."
