No stranger to controversy, Lady GaGa courts exactly that with the covers for new promotional single ‘Venus’.
The ‘ARTPOP’ cut was initially scheduled to serve as the album’s official second single – following Platinum lead effort ‘Applause’. However, as reported, was bumped to “promo” status once the R. Kelly assisted ‘Do What U Want’ became a surprise hit on iTunes globally this week.
Still, Mother Monster seems keen to whip up a buzz about the mythical track, taking to Twitter seconds ago to post three official covers. The first (and tamest) appears above.

The trio of shots were lensed by ‘Alejandro’ and ‘Fame’ (fragrance commercial) director Steven Klein.
‘ARTPOP’ hits stores November 11th.
