Ciara's confirmed to be the musical guest on SNL when Justin hosts it. so no doubt they'll duet on Love Sex Magic... but it's not scheduled until like may 2nd, the week the album comes out. i haven't heard anything about Idol...

is it confirmed that GaGa is gonna be on Idol or is it just wishful thinking? i think a big performance like that is the only way PF will be #1 at this point. unless Right Round doesn't get added back to iTunes for a while :laugh:

i'm sure they pushed back the physical release so she can do promo for PF before it's 'officially' out. her US tour ends on like april 10th, so she can go do UK promo the week of release

Luke/Max.. same thing. -_-

go Poker Face! :dance:

The Fame is set to have it's biggest sales week yet in the US. it's on track to sell 35-40k and a new peak inside the top 10 on next week's chart :D Poker Face is def. doing it's job for the album and it's only just starting :dance:

I'm sure she wouldn't mind :heehee: Poker Face for world domination! it's already #3 on US itunes w/ fairly low airplay still! I think PF will be just as massive if not more than JD was here.

omg that new cover is soooo much better than the original! I Want!

video. she looks great and I love that marilyn-esque hairdo gvI7OXUlDa4

On the Scene: Lady GaGa's 'LoveGame' video Feb 2, 2009, 08:51 PM | by Whitney Pastorek She humped inflatable pool toys in the video for "Just Dance" and taunted enormous dogs with her "Poker Face,". For her next trick, pop provocatease Lady GaGa is going old school. Shot inside a warehouse at the Port of L.A. (where I visited for a feature on the tiny blond sequin-spreader that will run in the magazine next week), the "LoveGame" video is set on a subway platform, wet concrete glistening beneath a menacing flock of bondage-loving biker-gang dancers who back the Lady through a routine that's part Rhythm Nation, part Blonde Ambition Tour, and generally takes so many cues from Michael Jackson's "Bad" clip that after one of the nearly two dozen runs through the chorus, GaGa herself actually stage-whispered, "Who's bad?" "I wanted to have that big giant dance video moment," said GaGa of the concept, directed by Joseph Kahn (Britney Spears' "Toxic"). "I wanted it to be plastic, beautiful, gorgeous, sweaty, tar on the floor, bad-ass boys, but when you got close, the look in everybody's eyes was f---ing honest and scary." Aside from the bikers, a collection of cops and club kids milled around the warehouse, which housed other set pieces like parked cars and a token booth; the Lady also endured hours of body paint for what she calls "the most brilliant setup of the two days," in which she's "naked, but covered in art." "The whole idea behind the subway 'Bad' thing is that me and my friends from New York, we're all, like, the dopest f---ing artists," GaGa says. "Best designers, performance artists, dancers. The dancers in the video...those are not hot L.A. people that you see in everybody's video. Those are kids who don't get cast, because they're too f---ing real." In that authentic vein, the mistress of the disco stick created yet another one of her infamous props for the video: a pair of glasses made from chain-link fence. "I love the imagery of a downtown, bad-ass kid walking down the street with his buddies, grabbing a pair of pliers, and making a pair of sunglasses out of a fence on the street," she says. "I thought that imagery was so real, and it shows that no matter who you are, or where you come from, or how much money you have in your pocket, you’re nothing without your ideas. Your ideas are all you have. The opening of the video is me with this chain link hood and these intense glasses. They look so hard. It looks like I plied them right out of the fence and put them on my face." But don't be skeered -- according to GaGa, the underlying message of all this subway/street action is "That it's okay to have a good time and make art. We don't have to be slitting our wrists and jacking off to our own over-intellectual ideas. It's okay to make amazing music that makes people feel good." No word yet on when the video will premiere. Stay tuned to EW.com and PopWatch all week for more from the Haus (and mouth) of GaGa.... source ___ sounds AMAZING B) :wub: :naughty: :dance: :w00t: :yahoo: :cheer:

at the same time/same week

the GAGAMINATION is complete :D so she'll pull off a double. #1 in the UK & US this week :dance: it isn't that common is it? i think Coldplay did it w/ Viva La Vida, and before that it had been a long while...

the Japanese Pop Superstar is back with a new english album. The english follow-up to the fantastic Exodus :dance: 'Come Back To Me' goes for radio adds on mainstream radio feb. 9th in the US. I don't think there's any word on a UK release just yet. it sounds v. much like an r&b ballad :o not what I was expecting from her at all. I love it, if programmers give it a chance it could do well. :arrr: it's streaming here: mms://wm.allaccess.com/allaccess/utadcome.wma

I voted yes. :D i wonder how The Fame will do next week? i hope it does well and she isn't seen as just a singles act :dance:

a few k more in the final update and GaGa could match her debut week sales :o :dance:

omg go Saturdays :w00t: :w00t: :dance: I was afraid they'd be stuck at #20 forever :arrr:

go GaGa! is it really #1? :w00t: :dance: yay at Alesha's huge climb too. :wub: :cry: at the Sats still not top 20 Kathriella: love your sig :wub: Fearless = best r&b album of the year :dance:

Happy New Year :D [though it isn't 2009 here for another 8 hours or so -_-] my iTunes january prediction: ~a full out GaGamination~ :dance: and hopefully top 10 for my beloved Saturdays :cry:

after she hit the top 10 GaGa soared up at an even faster rate :o here's hoping she knocks off Alexandra by the end of the week :D

they're both gaining airplay by about the same amount [both up 4mil for this week so far], and gaga's pop bars on itunes are now way ahead of SL, more so than last week. so i hope next week she can pull it off! if not, it's okay, it'll still be a huge #2 hit, but hitting number one just for a week would be nice. this all reminds me of 2 years ago w/ B kept Fergalicious from #1 for weeks even though Ferg was #1 on sales, including christmas week, but Irreplaceable had massive airplay that Ferg could never overcome and peaked at #2 :(

ugh, damn that beyoyo. SL will still be #1 on the Hot 100 w/ it's airplay advantage. hopefully GaGa can do it next week!

go GaGa! #3! w00t :D come on Sats! they've been stuck at #21 forever. :(

I can't believe Earth Song is Michael Jackson's biggest selling hit ever. how random lol and Madonna having no million sellers at all :o

GaGa sold 419k last week! 2nd highest sales ever for a digital track :o :o no word on what Single Ladies sold, but if JD outsold it by at least 55-60k, then #1 on the Hot 100 is assured *prays* :teresa: Digital Tracks Set New Weekly Record December 30, 2008 - Digital and Mobile | Retail By Ayala Ben-Yehuda, L.A. and Silvio Pietroluongo, N.Y. Weekly digital track sales have set a new record, with 47.7 million sold in the U.S. between Dec. 22 – Dec. 28, according to Nielsen SoundScan. That figure for Christmas week represents a 126% spike from the week prior, a likely reflection of consumers redeeming download gift cards or receiving MP3 players as gifts. The week’s top-selling digital song was Interscope artist Lady GaGa’s “Just Dance,” with 419,000 downloads. :w00t: :dance: Total digital track sales this year were 1,070,000,000 – up 27% from 2007, based on full year-end data. All but two songs on Billboard’s Hot Digital Songs chart increased their sales by triple-digit percentages last week. During the corresponding week last year, ten songs on that chart sold more than 200,000 downloads; this Christmas week, 15 songs did so.

Just Dance :cheer: about half way to #1 :dance:
