Lady GaGa Unwraps ‘Applause’ Single Cover

Published: Sunday 28th Jul 2013 by Sam

The ‘ARTPOP’ revolution is upon us.

Pop tour de force Lady GaGa whipped her legion of Monsters into a frenzy moments ago after revealing the cover for ‘Applause’.

The fiercely anticipated track (due August 19th) is the lead release from the 27-year-old’s fourth studio album, which arrives on November 11th.

Intriguing. Eager to hear the song! Roll on August already!

  8. Lovebird July 28, 2013

    Absolute trash, so reductive. Is this what she is calling “art”?? The t***** has run out of ideas. This is redundant, just like she is.

    • SHESDUMB “I DONT BOP I DO THE MONEY DANCE” July 28, 2013

    Lmfaooo The pot callin the kettle black. @LoveStank the only T***** in music is that Non Existence FLOP THE FLOP u stan for. Just think about it Rihc*nt. If u bought a Citranny cd everytime u posted on TGJ, she might would be @ 180k, unstead of not over 100k in the third week of release bwahahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahah #FLOPS

    • FAF July 28, 2013

      how many records have u sold? ur fave did 10mil in the us, w/ 2 albums that t***** sold half of that .

      sit down & stay on topic, UGLEE 😆

      • Music July 29, 2013

        @FAF B****, shut up. Stan for someone who is actually slaying the game right now and maybe these comments wouldn’t be hurting your feelings. Cuz clearly Ciara aint the business!

  12. HOWYOULIKEIT July 28, 2013

    I’m waiting for the song. This cover looks like it was for the btw era

  13. LittleScheisse July 28, 2013

    @Lovebird Honey get over it… Please it just looks pathetic now… LOVE THE COVER IT LOOKS TRULY ARTISTIC AND A SIDE OF GAGA WE’VE NEVER SEEN #ThumbsUp

    • Music July 29, 2013

      Girl, you know his undercover stan ass couldn’t wait to comment on a Gaga post!

    INTERESTING….

  16. Belladonna1363 July 28, 2013

    WOW!!!!!!!!!!!! I Love It!!!!!! This is going to be Amazing I can tell! She’s going to kill it at the VMA’S this year! The New King Of Pop!!! ( Beyonce is the Queen)

    • stephy the lambily July 28, 2013

      MICHAEL JACKSON HAS/HAD A PENIS…. SO THERE FOR HE WILL ALWAYS BE KING

    • Perry Power July 28, 2013

      Sit the f*** down. Michael Jackson is the King of Pop and Madonna is the Queen. It will always be that way. I love Beyonce but her music is hardly considered pop.

      • Lovebird ( come ride a train on me) July 28, 2013

        Queen of Pop = Madonna

        King of Pop = Michael Jackson

    • MJStan July 28, 2013

      “King of Pop is a title most commonly associated with the American popstar Michael Jackson, who originated the popular use of the term of King and Queen of Pop with Madonna.”

    • Belladonna1363 July 28, 2013

      I dont care what you people say She is the New King Of POP & MJ would have wanted that way he loved GAGA! What He would not like is you hateful B*tchs on this blog spreading your hate like you do everyday. He was about making the world a better place just like GAGA does. So Girl Bye!!!! @STEPHYTHELAMBILY @PerryPower @LOVEBIRD @MJSTAN

      • Music July 29, 2013

        How do you know he loved Gaga or if he even knew her? Source?

  17. Monstarebel July 28, 2013

    How people praise this retarded b******* i will never know.

    • LittleScheisse July 28, 2013

      like your fav did? Check her instagram huntyhttps://twitter.com/ladygagaloo/status/361559848992788480/photo/1

    • stephy the lambily July 28, 2013

      GURL THEY PRAISE YOUR FAV ALL THA TIME WHILE SHE IS PATTING HER P**** ON STAGE & SERVIN HORRIBLE LIVE VOCALS…. SO WHATS THE DIFFERENCE

    • Music July 29, 2013

      You calling someone retarded but go hard for Nicki the clown Minaj. The irony.

  18. FAF July 28, 2013

    reminds me of Annie Lenox & i know y’all want the fame era, but this is looking like BTW, tbh……

    • FAF July 28, 2013

      Lennox

    • Guest July 28, 2013

      You can’t judge a song you’ve never heard before based on a single cover!

      • FAF July 28, 2013

        I can, because Gaga is very thematic. This looks NOTHING like urban anything, which ARTPOP was slated to be . Her new V cover gave her a normal look as opposed to this which is giving me BTW.

    • Music July 29, 2013

      Nothing about ARTPOP sounded urban anyway. I knew when I saw the promo pics, it was going to be slightly similar to the freakshow that was BTW. But not complaining tho. She’s clearly proven herself to be professional with her work and never disappoints on the creative side of it all.

  19. Katy Kat July 28, 2013

    & Let The Attention Seeking Gimmicks Begin.

    • Lovebird July 28, 2013

      Yasss hunty, we already know what to expect.

      • Belladonna1363 July 28, 2013

        Or @Lovebird you can call it not wanting to be normal looking witch is nothing wrong with that.lol why call someone a freak if all they want to do is just look different. thats hateful.

  20. LittleScheisse July 28, 2013

    How does this remind you of the BTW Era? Lol there is no comparisons at all.

    • FAF July 28, 2013

      born this way intro when she had the colors behind her and the bald look for the live performance “hair” my point being, it looks like its going to be a themed album, not just a happy pop era like TF

    • Music July 29, 2013

      The Fame and The Fame Monster were themed actually with the hollywood lifestyle and fashion references but I get what you mean.

  21. Beyawnce July 28, 2013

    I don’t know what to make of it , trying to be artistic, oh well the song must better live up to the hype.

  22. Lil Mo Stan and trey burkes husband (Kendricks d*** game wasnt on point) July 28, 2013

    Opp, tgj is revealing trolls. (Beyonce is better than caca) drag her Sam! Anyways, I wanna pre-order, but im kinda afraid that’ll mirror btw, which was not a good album in my honest opinion. She’ll slay, though. Wonder what her next outlandish outfit will be? She should hop out of a pyramid like Cleopatra. Omg, the possible slayage! Ok im done (I act gayier online than in person Lmfao kiii b****)

    • WeCouldBelongTogether July 28, 2013

      Do you even realize the b******* that you’re spewing?

  23. Perry Power July 28, 2013

    Never cared for her music or her thirst for attention but she has me interested in this era. I’ll be checking when August comes around.

    • Music July 29, 2013

      Glad a Perry stan can be positive about another artist.

  24. Mark111 July 28, 2013

    I spoke too soon. I’m not down with the craziness this time.

  25. Lovebird July 28, 2013

    Belladonna or whatever it is you call yourself.

    Queen of Pop = Madonna

    King of Pop = Michael Jackson

    Queen of thieves = Lady Gaga

    King of thieves = Beyonce (she calls herself King)

    • SLAYRIAH CAREY (TOUR DE FORCE) July 28, 2013

      I saw your comments on TLL. Let me just remind you that Mariah actually has sold more albums than Celine.

    • Belladonna1363 July 28, 2013

      @LOVEBIRD I understand Why MJ is King And Madonna is Queen There both Beyond Amazing but all that hate for Bey & Gaga is just not needed. we dont agree and im fine with that.lol I dont believe just because they were the first to Be King & Queen they should always be. Music Should move forward not back. I also do think Bey & Gaga Should Be King & Queen 4ever. Always let the new people come in.

    ^Are the words that come to mind when Gaga is mentioned. The b**** needs to hurry up, release the album, sell it in a 6 for $0.59 bundle deal and take her seat next Ashanti, Jessica Simpson, and Ciara.

    *raises glass in the air*

    But here’s to hoping that she saves herself the embarrassment and just bows out gracefully.

    • FAF July 28, 2013

      Not toooo much Ciara’s in vogue & with her own production company riding around in Bentleys living off her writing credits & Jessica simpson has a hundred million dollar fashion empire . Not toooooooooo much

    • LittleScheisse July 28, 2013

      Umm DO U NOT REMEMBER RIHANNA SELLING ‘RATED R’ FOR .99 CENTS ON AMAZON? NO ONE MENTIONS THAT THOUGH! JUST BECAUSE BTW CRASHED THEIR SITE FROM ALL THE PURCHASES MAKES HER WRONG FOR DOING SOMETHING OTHER ARTISTS DO? AND HER RECORD LABEL GOT THE FULL PRICE FOR THE ALBUM BECAUSE AMAZON PAID FOR THE ALBUMS TO SELL FOR .99 CENT FOR THE LAUNCH OF THEIR SOFTWARE… WHAT ARTISTS WOULDNT DO THAT? ESPECIALLY IF THEY WANT PEOPLE TO HEAR THEIR MUSIC? UR PATHETIC HUNTY

    • Music July 29, 2013

      @Little she doesn’t stan for Rihanna. Her avi and sn is shading her.

  27. ENOUGH ONIKA (KMART QUEEN) July 28, 2013

    Ugly. I won’t be purchasing. She should not be rewarded with throwing out pure sh*t like this. BTW era is over, no ones “shocked” by you being ridiculous anymore…

  28. ratedxxx(tic toc) July 28, 2013

    I’ll wait till her song drops to pass judgment…

    I remember how hyped up born this was, and turned out to be a madonna reject….

    people needs to wait to hear the song before, she’s going to snatch wigs, your fav wish she could, your fav is a flop, b*******

    because we saw how born this way went….

    • LittleScheisse July 28, 2013

      ??? Born This Way outsold every album that year except 21 and Adele was slaying everyone so HUH? Tf are you talking about? BTW had BTW, Edge of Glory… Im lost

      • ratedxxx(tic toc) July 29, 2013

        first of all I was talking about born this way the single..hence the “madonna reject”, comment

        second album sales does not dictate how good of an album it is….

        born this way album was based on hyped, hence why it sold over 1 million than when down to 170k on the second week…lets keep it real

        I’m not even going to bash gaga, for her album selling 99c..because she had nothing to do with amazon selling the album for 99c

        amazon purchased the album for full price and then sold it for 99c..

        but born this way was garbage….I don’t care if it had sold over 30 million..still garbage

  29. Lovebird July 28, 2013

    So let’s see, how does our Fall schedule look like.

    We have,

    Britney Spears (confirmed)

    T***** Caca (confirmed)

    Ariana Grande (Confirmed)

    Justin Bieber (awaiting confirmation)

    Katy Perry (awaiting confirmation)

    Beyonce??? (Crickets, tumble weed and fear from the self proclaimed King B)

  30. SHESDUMB “I DONT BOP I DO THE MONEY DANCE” July 28, 2013

    • Belladonna1363 July 28, 2013

      You could find somthing wrong with her know matter what it was you love to hate her. And thats your choice.lol

    • miao July 29, 2013

      Fail! Try harder! One essay on this topic would be just fine.

  32. LittleScheisse July 28, 2013

    MADONNA IS 50 F****** YEARS OLD AND SHE SPENT 30 YEARS IN THE INDUSTRY! SHES HAD YEARS TO DO ABOUT EVERYFUCKING THING! SO WHATEVER GAGA DOES PPL ARE GOING TO TRY TO FIND A COMPARISON BECAUSE THEY WANT TO NOT LIKE HER. BUT GUESS WHAT? THE INTERNET IS BLOWING UP, SOCIAL MEDIA IS GOING CRAZY FOR GAGA. SAY WHAT U WANT. BUT GAGA WILL BE HERE THIS SUMMER TO SLAY ALL OF U C**** EXISTENCE.

    • Music July 29, 2013

  33. JER July 28, 2013

    It looks………… Familiar somehow

  34. HOWYOULIKEIT July 28, 2013

    wonder what she will say about her new album. Album of the CENTURY maybe? I think she learnt that overhyping your own material is not a good step. But she doesnt look s***, neither classy, neither fierce on that cover. Good luck

  35. Ciara is everything July 28, 2013

    Such a try hard.

  36. We Could Belong Togehter July 28, 2013

  40. Britney Stan July 28, 2013

    Shes so f****** reductive.. Smh Same gimmicks over and over again… Next

  41. Rosie July 28, 2013

    I thought this era was supposed to be all “less is more?” The f*** is that b*******? Still crazy, still looks like a t*****, still fading, and definitely still ugly. I bet this song will be dated electropop trash because that’s the only genre she can do properly, and unfortunately it is on it’s way out. But if course this will shoot straight to #1 on iTunes because of her underage bottom Monsters and their gift cards and will drop like a rock by the next day or two.

    • Lovebird (30 years) July 28, 2013

      I love Lana Del Rey’s Born to die album. My favorite songs are “off to the races, blue jeans, video games, dark paradise, carmen, summertime sadness and this is what makes us girls”. Worth the purchase.

      • Rosie July 29, 2013

        Happy to know that you’ve seen the light.
        And those are my faves too. Lucky Ones & Without You from the deluxe edition are also good. I think you’ll love Paradise also.

      • channel_ROMAN July 29, 2013

        SHE WORE BLUE VELVET !!!!! Love That Album

    • Music July 29, 2013

      two fake b****** only siding with eachother cuz they hate gaga and just the other day they were arguing. Good f****** bye.

  42. Queen Brit Brit July 28, 2013

    This b**** tries so damn hard to be groundbreaking and artist and it fails everytime. Real artist don’t force it, it comes naturally. Lady Madonna and her tired gimmicks are just dry now. I can’t with her posing n*** and all those promo shots when her body is disgusting to look at. And Flopsters have the nerve to come at Katy Perry and her sexual image or Rihanna smh. Gaga is always half naked. At least Rihanna and Katy look good. Gags is just trashy and nasty. LOLOL!!

    • Music July 29, 2013

      But Britney hasn’t been the queen since 2004. Sit.

    • miao July 29, 2013

      Honey you stan for Britney. Relevancy: 1999-2004. Sit x 2.

  43. cake like lady gaga July 29, 2013

    SHOW SOME RESPECT AND BOW DOWN TO THE QUEEN!!! THE QUEEN IS BACK FOR HER THROWN!!!

    SLAY MOTHER SLAY!!!!!!

  44. Mac July 29, 2013

    Not gonna lie, I miss The Fame and Fame Monster GaGa, I know thats old news, and you dont want someone to rehash their past work but I just miss HER from that era. She was more innocent and fun…but thats what the business does to ya.

    I HOPE I love the new music. I really want to. I think I will…*sits patiently*

  45. MicroPop July 29, 2013

    Its so REDUCTIVE.

    It’s like some David Bowie cover from 30 years ago…

  46. IGGY GODZALEA July 29, 2013

    Iggy is opening for the Mrs.Carter tour in Australia. Bankrupt stans are seething lmao!! Iggy always wins!!

  47. F*** Your Swag, I’m Dope. July 29, 2013

    Tell me that s*** doesn’t look totally ridiculous.

    I’m sorry, but anyone who is enabling this contrived weirdo is a damn fool. Everything about Gaga is tacky x10. From her look, to her music, right down to her ridiculous stage name. How can anybody go to the record store and not be totally embarrassed to take a CD by an “artist” who calls themselves “Lady Gaga” to the check out counter? If I were the cashier, I would be trying my damnedest to not laugh.

    She’s not creative, she’s not artistic, she’s not genuine, she’s not altruistic, she’s not deep. All she is is ridiculous. She’s a manufactured freak show, who panders to the misfits and outcasts of society, and has been able to too easily manipulate them into thinking that they can have a voice through her wack ass. F*** outta here with that b*******. Used to be a time when people who looked and behaved like her would be asked to leave the building, if they were let in in the first place. Let’s go back to THAT, please.

    F*****’ clown.

    • quite July 29, 2013

      funny you picked that store thing too. but you know the cashier doesn’t care. they only take your money. they’d even smile and tell you “good choice” for you to come back to buy some more s***. this is how they work. 😉

      nonetheless. purely by visual, buying the cd with that cover is really questionable. it might be she getting rid of ridiculous make up or something but the joker is closer and he’s a phreak. yeah.

  48. quite July 29, 2013

    eewww. nasty. >_< she's one unnattractive m***********. i'd feel shame if i'd buy that with that cover as a hardcopy in a shop. good that anonymousity can hide it on itunes.

    and i don't wanna listen to it. i'm already overfed with her sound from a summer torture with radio.

  49. Thirst July 29, 2013

    lol this b**** is cray cray, but i must say she really makes music interesting and fun! i welcome her back she’s dope

  50. channel_ROMAN July 29, 2013

    Looks like a Roman Reloaded reject.

    • Music July 29, 2013

      Bet it wont flop as hard though. *oops*
