The video for Bad Romance, the first single off Lady Gaga's upcoming album The Fame Monster, debuted today, November 10, 2009. Directed by acclaimed music video guru Francis Lawrence, Bad Romance has everything one would expect from the, arguably, reigning queen of pop: outrageous costumes, synchronized dance scenes, innuendo, skin, and even sunglasses made out of razor blades.
The clip opens with Gaga surrounded by the characters from her previous videos (her sunglasses, the diamond-encrusted head pieces, Lava, the Great Dane) let's call it the Fame version of herself. That Gaga is quickly kidnapped, poisoned with vodka (shout out to the folks at Nemiroff!) and transformed into something new: the super-sexy, somewhat spooky Fame Monster version, which we'll see on her upcoming tour and hear on the updated version of her album, The Fame Monster, which hits stores on November 23. The message is clear: the old Gaga is over, here's the brand-new Gaga: the one who seems to delight in pushing the boundaries and exploring all manner of sexual proclivities.
So check out the video for yourself below and sound out with your opinion on the 'new Gaga.'

Home Depot stock is up. Coincidence? I think not.

I can finally feel comfortable wearing my sunglasses made out of razor blades in public and not feel like a freak.

I dressed up as Lady GaGa on Halloween.
