During on of her SNL performances didn't she have live back up singers instead of a backing track?

This is a couple pages back, but her SNL performance of Paparazzi used backup singers and live instrumentals. I think it's a pretty cool remix as well; I'd definitely buy a Mp3 or a CD with it included.

Not a lot of people on 6th Street in Austin got it but on Sunday night I ran into an AWESOME girl dressed up as Gaga in Telephone when she is the waitress in the diner. I forgot my drat camera and wish I didn't....

I don't think you understand the deep symbolism of the video.

First off, Snoop Dogg represents the classic figure of the Pater Familiaris, exerting control over all in his kingdom, represented by the game board :snoop:

The first exploit of Katy Perry in the video is to free another scantily-clad girl from within a bubblegum bubble. Thus delivering her from a Freudian latency stage and into sexual maturity, though we see that Katy herself, through most of the video, is not sexually mature, and has a strong oral fixation.

In the next scene, Katy is scene climbing trees to escape from candy snakes, very obvious phallic symbols, which Katy rejects.

Katy rescues another girl, this time from a cube of gelatin, and from a plastic wrapping, again representing latency stages. Katy has served as a messenger of adulthood, while still playing the role of child herself.

The end of the video features Katy spraying whipped cream from her breasts. Katy has obviously reached sexual maturity and become pregnant, though not of her own choice. In theory, Snoop Dogg has exerted right of Jus Prima Noctis, the right of a Lord to take the virginity of any serf's daughter in his estate.

The final scene shows Snoop Dogg :snoop: and his army of gummi bears surrendering to Katy Perry and the other maidens, showing that, through acceptance of her sexuality, females truly own the world. At the videos very close, Snoop Dogg is buried up to his neck in sand. The monarchy has been overthrown by the true heirs to the throne, the female body.

What's Lady Gaga got? Gays are gay? Heh :smug:

I'm still angry that the guy who posted a picture of his shirt with the Dance in the Dark mask never told us where he got it.

It wasn't the normal album art one with her head swinging, but it looked something like this:


I just looked and the picture of the guy with the actual shirt on has gone down.

The problem is most of them are in Europe, and international shipping is expensive as poo poo and not worth it for singles.
