♕ RUMORS/THEORIES/DISCUSSION --- Information is unconfirmed/with little basis

*RUMORED COLLABORATIONS:

• Coldplay [Source]
  

*RUMORED PRODUCERS:

• DJ Zedd [Source]
  

*PERFORMANCE ART THEORIES:

• Gaga started talking about the album and mentioning the word 'Gypsy' a lot starting from December. This was after she had announced to MTV that the album had a name and was flourishing. This coincided with a time she was dressing like iconic female blonde pop stars from the past [SOURCE].
  
  Gaga also spoke about life as a superstar on the Ellen Degeneres Show [December 2011] saying ''I'm a gypsy, you know. I can’t plan my life out like that so much. Then I think, well, gosh. What a waste of money to buy a house and I'm on the road.' - which is sort of reflective about the struggles of her life at the top.
  
  These could potentially give hints at the life-performance art aspect of the next era. She may start dressing like the typical iconic blonde pop star as she also wants to tackle the idea of reality/fantasy (who is she - is she this icon, what do people expect from her) and the decay of the blonde pop star

ALBUM TITLE THEORIES:

• The album will be called (or will have a track) names "Private in Public", Gaga has stated this phrase on a picture on her Tumblr and in her V Magazine Memorandum 2. Gaga has stated that all facets of her art (her wigs, her hats etc.) have come part of her - she cannot tell the difference/refuses to tell the difference between the reality of her life and the escapism or fantasy of her art. Both are real to her - hence art has become the most poignant and truth of her life - becoming the and core and most personal part of who she is - private in public. It also links to the idea of fame - Gaga is ALWAYS in the public eye but through her "attention directing" art, [Excerpt - From 6:50 onwards - 60 Minutes Interview (February 2011)] she is able to maintain a level of privacy in public which counteracts but cannot altogether prevent the 'decay of the blonde superstar'.
  
• The album will be called (or will have a track) named "Element of Crime" - On Gaga's Tumblr picture she said - "In Pop, you know you have succeeded when there is an ELEMENT OF CRIME" - this links to the idea of fame in pop where the blonde female is the star but people sort of her destroy her for things she does - there is an element of crime to everything she does.

• The album may be a throwback to idea of The Fame but concentrating more on the relationship with the media and the destruction of the pop star once fame has now been achieved. (Fan Rumor)

I wonder how many threads we'll have BEFORE we get the actual album

17 :)

[ryhanna 3,507]

I guess some people here don't know what Iconic means..

Is any kind of release this year looking likely? I'm not too sure. I'm hopeful, but I'm sure my judgement is being clouded by fandelusion :toofunny:

[Henryy 11]

Imagine what the cover of an album called "Element of Crime" would look like. :jizztastic:

[Americano 31,061]

Unpopular opinion, but I wouldn't mind another country-esque song like You and I.

It wouldn't need to be another single, but to keep the trend going from BTW (remix) and Y&I single onto the next record.

[Jase 13,285]

I love Y&I, so another country-esque song would be fine by me

[Americano 31,061]

I also hope she does a huge Spanish-influenced single, similar to Alejandro.

I know it'd start to get boring with a song like that on 3 albums in a row, but with difference influences outside of Mexico (Americano), it could sound fresh.

Alejandro is one of my all-time favorite singles by her, so I'm a bit biased with it.

Single choices are gonna be very interesting during the next era. I wonder if the label are gonna be extra cautious.

I do miss the GGD speculation about what the next single is going to be, it's always so fun
