In case you missed it, Lady Gaga broke the internet today with ‘Stupid Love.’
Mother Monster took to Twitter and Instagram to share a photo of a billboard that announced her brand new single, ‘Stupid Love’. The graphic design on the billboard harks back to some early ‘00s trends and the imaging of Lady Gaga evokes the dance-pop eras of Born This Way and ARTPOP.
Remember when Lady Gaga claimed she didn’t remember ARTPOP? So do we! Listen to our chat about that infamous Tweet on this episode of It’s Been A Big Day For…
Understandably, the internet have lost their collective minds.
The new single is set to drop on Friday, which means, yes, it’s come just in time for the Mardi Gras festival. Now, we all know that dance music by pop queens is kryptonite for the LGBTQIA+ community, but Lady Gaga? The notorious queen of the gays? What is she doing to us?
Lady Gaga knows exactly what she’s doing with this release. I wouldn’t be surprised if Lady Gaga launches a special edition, ‘Stupid Love’ poppers in her merchandise drop to fully capitalise on this. Lady Gaga, releasing the song just in time for Mardi Gras is guaranteed millions of streams for this queen of pop.
Ultimately, Lady Gaga is solidifying her positive relationship with the LGBTQIA+ community. ‘Stupid Love’ dropping on Mardi Gras weekend makes the song synonymous with partying, acceptance and good times, what more could you ask for, as an artist?
Also, did we mention, the song is being released on the same date as the premiere of Rupaul’s Drag Race, Season 12? It looks like February 28 has officially been claimed by the LGBTQIA+ community!
If you can’t wait until then, you could (potentially, maybe) listen to the single now. If you do a little digging that is. A demo of the single has already leaked and hit social media in the past month, with fans hacking her website to find the title of the single a month before that. Hence, there are quite a few Tweets referencing the leak…
All-in-all, we can’t wait to hear the final version of Lady Gaga’s ‘Stupid Love’. We imagine it’ll be brilliant, incredible, amazing, show-stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, etc.
