Making new music while touring, we are really back in the Fame Monster era

Idc if it’s Total Mayhem or not, but the fact that she’s making new music is so exciting! The passion and love she has for performing this era is unlike anything we’ve seen in years; I’m happy that’s made her energetic and inspired to make more music

Did they lie ?

Yep she's trully into what's next

I guess the sex with Michael in every hotel room in every single country is very good

I am just so happy to see her being happy again making music. Enjoying it. Talking about it. Makes my lil heart smile Its been a long time she felt like this about making music. And as a fan, a fellow human it makes me so happy for her.

Oh we're boarding extra early this time

His intern has great taste

Honestly, I think all the theories about her working overtime to get ready for family plans are just ignoring the obvious answer. She's working overtime because she loves it again. This is the first decade in a decade where she's not been struggling mentally and is truly happy and in love with music again. And the result of that is that she constantly wants to create. Exactly like how TCB saw her essentially be reborn and be ready to get back to doing this. She hasn't stopped since then and its not just because of any family plans. Its because she's connected to music again and letting it flow freely.

She said "I don't remember Joker but no one is forgetting Harlequin, dammit"

The she's totally open promoting next project in her interviews is telling me 2026 will be good

Lady Gaga's 'Harlequin Live: One Night Only' is OUT! Watch here:

Ah yes HarleQIUN

Can't wait until we’re screaming together in part 5 of this discussion in 4 years after the album finally drops!!

Making new music while touring again? Oh, MAYHEM got her inspired

I feel like every new album cycle she talks about how much she was struggling the prior album cycle. I feel like other than the grind, she will look back so positively on the Maybem era

Being healthy is truly one of the biggest blessings in life. We should truly appreciate more and give it more thoughts tbh

The people in the hotel rooms next to hers

Btw 2 incoming No One Is ready

Following the recent Harlequin Q&A, it got me thinking about ARTPOP Act II. She interestingly admitted they allowred the lore surrounding the performance to build, ultimately releasing it as a Christmas present... https://x.com/antpats2/status/2003162116149379096 Among Little Monsters, ARTPOP Act II isn’t just an unreleased album, it’s a ghost that still walks the halls of Gaga’s career. The way many of us see it, ARTPOP never really ended. It fractured into many broken mirrors. After 2013, Gaga didn’t abandon ARTPOP because she stopped believing in it. She stepped away because the world around it collapsed. The era was chaotic, messy, brilliant — and behind the scenes, deeply controlled. A huge portion of ARTPOP’s unreleased material was created while Troy Carter was still steering the train, and that matters more than people inside the fanbase realise. Those sessions, those demos, those near-finished tracks? They’re tangled up in management-era contracts, ownership splits, and creative approvals that Gaga no longer has clean access to. That’s the quiet truth many Monsters whisper about: it’s not that ARTPOP Act II doesn’t exist — it’s that it exists in a legal and emotional limbo. There’s also the title itself. ARTPOP isn’t just a name; it’s a brand, an era, a legal entity. After the fallout with Troy and the restructuring of her team, the title became radioactive. Using it again would mean reopening old agreements, old power dynamics, and old wounds. Gaga doesn’t want to relive that version of herself — not because she rejects it, but because she’s outgrown the cage it was built in. And yet… she’s never let it die. You can hear ARTPOP’s DNA everywhere if you know how to listen. In the metallic spirituality of Chromatica, or recently in MAYHEM. In the way she talks about art swallowing fame instead of the other way around. In how she still describes herself as a conduit rather than a product. ARTPOP was about the collision of art and pop until neither could survive unchanged, and that idea is still her north star. The lore says this: Gaga doesn’t want to release ARTPOP Act II — she wants to reincarnate it. That’s why she’s been so careful. She’s waiting for a moment where she can continue the story without using the same title, the same contracts, or the same expectations. A continuation that isn’t shackled to Troy-era management, unfinished obligations, or the industry narrative that painted ARTPOP as a “failure” instead of a prophecy that arrived too early. To her, releasing those old tracks as-is would be like letting someone else finish her sentence. So instead, she’s rewriting the language. When ARTPOP returns, and most of us believe it will, it won’t be called Act II. It’ll be something stranger, freer, and sharper. A parallel universe sequel. Same soul, different body. The art still bleeding into the pop, but this time on her terms, with no one holding the keys but her. That’s why it’s taken so long. Especially after the huge petition seeing over 56,000 signatures. Not because she forgot ARTPOP. Because she remembers it too well. 💙🖤

I hate this narrative btw. What started as discourse about the issues within Hollywood production blocking openly gay actors from taking on leading male roles because of their sexuality and why we should push against it. Is now purist dictat that seeks to reinforce the very limitation we once sought to break. Its acting. The job is to sell a made up story. The best actor should get the job. I feel like this idea that only gay/bi men should play gay/bi characters is a deliberate bastardisation of the original discourse by right wing media to reinforce the confines of the closet.

There’s room for everybody let’s just say that

She is a notorious being

Lady Gaga's 'MAYHEM' is No. 3 on Billboard's staff ranking of the Best Albums of 2025. Despite its chaotic title, Gaga's 14-track project ended up as one of her most cohesive and fully realized yet, exploring themes of fame, identity and ultimately love (romantic and self-worth alike) through the lens of disorder. Lady Gaga might have given her sixth studio album a chaotic title, but the 14-track project ended up as one of her most cohesive and fully realized yet, exploring themes of fame, identity and ultimately love (romantic and self-worth alike) through the lens of disorder. What seemed especially cohesive was the response from Little Monsters and pop fans at large, who praised Gaga for returning to form while also pushing her sound into the future; as the Lady herself told Billboard‘s Stephen Daw earlier this year, her hope was that “it wouldn’t be exactly what you’ve heard from me before, but there is the DNA of my approach to pop music.” It all led to her longest-reigning Hot 100 hit in more than a decade (the five-week No. 1 Bruno Mars duet “Die With a Smile”) and seven Grammy nominations (including album of the year). If this is Gaga’s definition of MAYHEM, long live our chaotic queen. – K.A.

LET’S GO, CHOO CHOO!!! 🚊🚞💺🚉🚂🚆🚄🛤️

To the people saying, "Something is definitely coming soon. She wouldn't do this interview for no reason." Well, the reason is Grammys promo/campaigning. This was just a quick thing she did to keep up the engagement for MAYHEM and Harlequin going into awards season. Y'all shouldn't have expected any definitive announcement, but the fact that she's in the studio and didn't completely rule out new music in 2026 is very exciting. That IS a headline.

We have been so spoiled this year. We just keep winning.

I never would have thought to ever see Gaga repeak like this again. This is BTW level.

Honestly for any newer monsters, especially post ARTPOP monsters, it cannot be understated how Gaga is truly back. Truly the 2nd coming of pop jesus

I just want to point out that Michael Polansky is a POSITIVE force in her life.
