Gaga isn't listed because she falls under the "surprise" performances.

I'm guessing she will perform near the end when the wednesday stuff is happening. 

And if she falls under “surprise performers,” then clearly Jenna Ortega referencing a “Killah surprise” is about Gaga herself. Or, at most, maybe a hint at her role in Wednesday.

If Jenna Ortega was randomly given insider info on Gaga’s decision to randomly promote a new song or EP, I’ll eat my hat.

You gotta admit though, it feels something big is happening, that's why you added the last part  

I mean, i would be over the moon with some cute Abra performance, or even some MAYHEM album tracks but idk man, I think something different is happening, or at least, I want to believe it will

This fanbase has also been pushing “EP!” rumors since Born This Way, and it’s literally never materialized. For BTW, everyone was going nuts over how “frontloaded” the era was and convinced new material had to be coming since the singles stopped with MTN - way before the tour kicked off. For ARTPOP, I’ll give us a pass since she fed into the hysteria with the Act II stuff. For Joanne, we kept hearing about a “B Side” project, complete with leaked demos, BMI registrations, etc. For Chromatica, “Act IV” was always on the way after the Sour Candy MV with T Dolla $ and SOPHIE collabs…

At some point, she’s bound to release a follow up project to one of her albums again. But, that doesn’t make these same insiders any more right. It’d just be a matter of luck.

No, I added it to make sure I wasn’t actively trying to be a grump. I don’t see this as the right time or place even if I did think something new/big was coming - and I don’t want everyone feeling let down or going on about “missed opportunities.”

Outside of the deluxe/ep talk, do you think a new single is likely? It has been 4 months since Abracadabra and the summer is approaching, we are almost out of the Spotify US charts, and have been bleeding on radio for the past 3 days.

I feel like if there's a moment to release something tudum is the biggest opportunity they have, it would make sense to leverage such a big promo spot (much like they did with Abra with the grammy's), better yet, TUDUM has a bigger audience than the grammy's.

Let me pick your brain a bit

oop, i'm on streak today 

 

The runtime of the latest livestreamed TUDUM was 2 hours and 46 minutes.

[Eido 3,663]

Stranger Things 5 being at almost the end of:( 

also I thought they would at least be mentioning ST: Tales of 85’

[27monster27 12,695]

So how big is the performance? Is it just one song or a big setlist?

EDIT: From each individual artist specifically.

Sorry to ask something that I’m sure has already been discussed but to be honest Icba to read through pages to look for the answer 

is this basically a live concert? And do we think it will be available on Netflix to watch after?

I think expectations should be toned down. It’s a non-music-related event; the focus of it is to promote upcoming Netflix content. Using it as a platform for promoting a (surprise) new single or EP makes no sense for Gaga or Netflix, and is similar to the “will she debut (insert song) MV at (insert concert)?”

Grammys was one of the few weekend events where a surprise release makes sense, since it’s an industry celebration (of which she was 1 of the winners) where her audience and the greater music market was tuned in and paying attention.

If she were going to promote something new, it would’ve been released today. What sense does it make to sacrifice the first day streams and sales of a new release, which she relies heavily on, and some fans still use Abra’s 13 peak (which it surely would’ve outdone had it debuted on a Friday) against it?

The potential reach of the event only points even more strongly to her promoting her most recent album. It’s a GP audience. The only scenarios I see where something “new” makes sense is if she is being announced as being part of a new series or - very unlikely - if she did something like a soundtrack for Wednesday. 

It’s been officially announced that she’s PERFORMING
