It’s the album cover, guys. It lines up exactly with what the insider on Lanabaords said to an exact T.

Some insiders can be right about stuff but interpret it wrong

They better come up with a new surprise on Monday because we already know the promo pic, title and release date from the source code. The countdown doesn't really work anymore lol.

Or we could just enjoy the ride instead of asking for more…

what do we think the other textures/patterns will be?

TFM: black vinyl? raven feathers?
BTW: machinery? sequins? slime?
AP: koons ball? paintings?

I think they knew Little Detectives would dig into codes and stuff and find out these info, so my theory is that everything was put there on purpose, kinda like the rebus we had for “Disease”, starting with the letters and then finding the website and so on. No way they didn’t know about the info leaking from the codes.

Also, now that things seem to get closer and closer to the release, I need @TimotheeChalamet to officially tell me if the very first “Neon Lights” snippet could be real or if it could be an outtake from a previous era or if it’s not real  because if it’s not I’m going to produce and record it myself just for myself 

No, you can produce everything you want based on that

I really like the album cover a lot. 

It brings to life these lyrics so perfectly: 

I feel so crazy
My head is filled with broken mirrors
So many, I can't look away
I'm in a bad way
If I could fix the broken pieces
Then I'd have a happy mistake

A lonely disposition
Portraits of a strung-out girl
How'd I get so addicted
To the love of the whole world?

It's not as visually striking as Chromatica's album cover but I almost think I prefer it to that. It feels more conceptual in a very real and meaningful way. Absolutely not to discredit the Chromatica cover at all (I love it) but, looking back, and especially knowing how she felt at the time about being 'Gaga', there's something quite insincere about it. Almost as though she felt she had to capture that Gaga essence again, without fully believing in it (which we know was the case). The concept was to 'be Lady Gaga again'. Whereas this cover's concept feels incredibly authentic and real - it is showing us Stefani looking at herself broken but with a strength and defiance in her eyes. The blurriness I think shows us her confronting the chaos (or Mayhem...) of "Lady Gaga". 

I also think there's something very bold about flipping the script and doing something unexpected. She was never going to be able to top the extremeness or 'Gaga-ness' of the Chromatica cover. And if she tried, it wouldn't have worked. This cover is dark and eerie but in a very realistic and grounded way. Most fan art is OTT and high camp and often teeters on pastiche. This feels real and artistic and not like Gaga is doing fan service (which I kind of felt was the case with the "Disease" MV in places, so it's interesting this cover goes in the opposite direction). Fan service is great btw but Gaga is an artist and I want to see her genuine vision, which this feels like it is. 

100% agree.

Also the way she's depicted on Chromatica's cover, laying down almost as if the weight of the Chromatica symbol and her own armour are crushing her and hopelessly staring at the observer, kinda captures that feeling that apparently permeated the whole creation process of the album.

From last Thursday: "i just saw the LG7 artwork. it’s black and white. her face is the center of the pic and she’s looking straight into the camera. she’s wearing a black fringy wig with bangs. she’s pretty pumped up with fillers unfortunately. there’s something on her right cheek im not sure if it’s something or it’s just the hair falling weirdly. it kind of reminds me of the chromatica tribe circle thingy. her outfits black too but you can’t see much of it. there is a crack on the artwork like a crack in a mirror. 1/3 of the artwork is blurry to give of that broken mirror effect."

Looking forward to what the fake insider on X, @lg7secrets, is going to tweet next. It all points to the album obviously not being titled Perfect Celebrity.

That’s because Perfect Celebrity wasn’t album name in the first place but the name of the song we used to call Notorious Being

She's been discussing dual identities recently so the album covet definitely matches that vibe.

It also describes her song "Happy Mistake" from the Harlequin album hmm maybe she originally wanted HM on LG7? 

Also major Edward Scissorhands style in the artwork and expression. 

Very intriguing
