Lady GaGa and Beyonce have teamed up for GaGa's new track titled "Telephone" and a remix of Beyonce's "Video Phone." Some promo photos for "Video Phone" have already spread online featuring the two superstars on chairs in matching poses wearing white gloves and leotards. The official "Video Phone" music video will debut this upcoming week.

Clips of the Hype Williams directed music video for "Video Phone" will be available on Tuesday morning before the video premieres on MTV later in the day. The new collaborative track will be included on Beyonce's deluxe edition of her album I Am...Sasha Fierce released later in the month.

Beyonce's new video for "Video Phone" will have its global premiere on Tuesday, November 17, 2009 across 60 channels on MTV networks. The showing will reach 168 countries around the world, from South East Asia to Europe and on MTV and VH1 in the US.

GaGa's "Telephone" track is currently making its viral rounds as the November 23rd release date for The Fame Monster draws closer. Lady GaGa's The Fame Monster will be released in three different versions including two deluxe albums and one EP album only featuring her newer music such as the recent single "Bad Romance."

Many are wondering why GaGa is having three different versions of the album drop on the same day. GaGa has explained that she wants to show her appreciation for her fans by offering a lower-priced alternative to the new deluxe albums. The EP of new tracks is a cheaper option for fans who still want to support GaGa's music:

She went on to say that by releasing a lower-cost version of the album (priced at $9.99 on her site), she is showing her appreciation of her followers. "We may have an economy, but music has no economy," she continued. "I will release four or more singles from The Fame Monster, tour the world with the Monster Ball Tour and most importantly, I insist on honoring my fans with an affordable new album, an album that is as loyal to them, as they have been me."

The official "Video Phone" music video will debut this week on November 17th and GaGa's The Fame Monster album(s) will arrive in stores on November 23rd. Beyonce's deluxe edition of I Am...Sasha Fierce will also be available on the 23rd.
