SNL FINALE SPOOF "THREE-WAY"

Last night was the season finale of Saturday Night Live with Justin Timberlake as host, and Lady Gaga as musical guest. He reunited with Andy Samberg for another spoof music video featuring cameos by Susan Sarandon, Patricia Clarkson, and none other than Lady Gaga!

GOLDEN RULE: "It's okay when it's in a three way, it's not gay when it's in a three way, with a honey in the middle there's some leeway..."

CHECK IT:

This video made me laugh last night while I watched it on SNL, and I must admit that Lady Gaga looked HAWWWTTT!!! If she didn't try to make herself look so out of the box all the time, I know that she's pretty in person without all that make-up and crazy gear. I also wish there were more music video spoofs, that was like the skit I always looked forward to whenever I watch SNL.

LADY GAGA'S CONTROVERSIAL VIDEO "JUDAS" PREMIERES

Today, the anticipated music video for Lady Gaga's JUDAS is out. Being a Catholic school girl for 15 years, she claims to have grew up with the concept of religion and has her own beliefs. But Lady Gaga makes it clear, "I don't view the video as a religious statement. I view it as social statement. I view it as a cultural statement. It's a metaphor. It's not meant to be a biblical lesson."

The video had a biker religious theme that had religious elements such as the 12 disciples, Judas crowned in thorns, Lady Gaga washing Judas' feet, a water scene which can be attributed to re-birth or starting fresh and others. Lady Gaga has once again created confusion amongst viewers, but the statement I think it makes is falling in love with someone who isn't right for you and whom no one approves of. But sometimes, we have to take it into our own hands to discover what's best for us.

ALEXANDER MCQUEEN ::ROYALLY UNIQUE::

Alexander McQueen's fashion will live on forever. Case in point, his house was responsible for Princess Kate Middleton's wedding dress this past Friday. Of course the designer was Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen, who was his long term assistant and is currently the Creative Director for the fashion hause since his suicide last year...

Alexander McQueen was a great and innovative designer who was renown in London, but made his influence all the way to the U.S. He was always pushing the boundaries on his fashion designs and fashion shows, giving mixed reviews from critics, but nowadays regarded as GENIUS.

But was McQueen the obvious choice for Kate Middleton's dress? Though potential designers were also up for the running, Alexander McQueen seemed like the best choice. He has a history on regal designs that gave the hint of a potential big wedding dress opportunity in the future. At his apprenticeship at Savile Row early in his fashion career, his clients were Prince Charles and Mikhail Gorbachev!!!

CHECK OUT HIS REGAL DESIGNS!!! His unique style caught the attention of the biggest names in the fashion and media: KATE MOSS, SARAH JESSICA PARKER, NAOMI CAMPBELL, STELLA MCCARTNEY, BJORK, KANYE WEST, ANNA WINTOUR, RIHANNA, KATY PERRY, NICOLE KIDMAN, PENELOPE CRUZ AND MOST NOTABLY LADY GAGA TODAY.

LADY GAGA'S TAPS INTO RELIGION WITH SINGLE "JUDAS"

SHE IS AT IT AGAIN FOLKS...

"Let the cultural baptism begin. If they were not who you were taught they would be, would you still believe?" Lady Gaga said of her new track.

Being that the single is titled "Judas" causes more controversy with the religious sector, especially since talk has leaked that Gaga herself will play Mary Magdalene and the bible itself will be featured in it. The church doesn't think this is such a good idea since the timing is completely off, Easter is just about a week away!

Creative director Laurieann Gibson told the Hollywood Reporter: "It went through several changes and late-night debates because at one point there were two completely different views and I was like, 'Listen, I don't want lightning to strike me! I believe in the gospel and I'm not going there.'"

"It was amazing because to have that conversation about salvation, peace and the search for the truth in a room of non-believers and believers, to me, that was saying God is active in a big way."

"We don't touch on things that we have no right touching upon, but the inspiration and the soul and idea that out of your oppression, your darkness, your Judas, you can come into the marvelous light. We've created a new Jerusalem."

Check out the lyrics, very biblical indeed:

Ohohohoh
I'm in love with Judas

Ohohohoh
I'm in love with Judas

Judas! Judaas Judas! Judaas
Judas! Judaas Judas! GAGA

[Lady Gaga - Verse 1]

When he comes to me, I am ready
I’ll wash his feet with my hair if he needs
Forgive him when his tongue lies through his brain
Even after three times, he betrays me

I’ll bring him down, bring him down, down
A king with no crown, king with no crown

[Chorus]

I’m just a Holy Fool, oh baby he’s so cruel
But I’m still in love with Judas, baby
I’m just a Holy Fool, oh baby he’s so cruel
But I’m still in love with Judas, baby

Ohohohoh
I'm in love with Judas

Ohohohoh
I'm in love with Judas

Judas! Judaas Judas! Judaas
Judas! Judaas Judas! GAGA

[Lady Gaga - Verse 2]

I couldn’t love a man so purely
Even darkness forgave his crooked way
I’ve learned our love is like a brick
Build a house or sink a dead body

I’ll bring him down, bring him down, down
A king with no crown, king with no crown


Who is Lady Gaga without the controversy attached to it? She's an artist who pushes the envelope and conveys a new message to be heard loud and clear. It's refreshing to see someone who isn't afraid to express themselves and to stick to their beliefs.

The song isn't necessarily my favorite compared to her more danceable, catchy tracks. While I was hearing the song on KIIS FM earlier, I was confused if it was even Lady Gaga, because it sounded like a Caribbean artist, i.e. Rihanna? When looking at the lyrics, it does remind me of her single "Bad Romance" which conveys her love as forbidden and dangerous. The video to this soon should be released in a few weeks, so watch out for that!

LADY GAGA DISSES PLASTIC SURGERY

Let Lady Gaga be the one to tell you what to stand for and what to stand against. This universal icon, the latest cover girl for Harper's Bazaar says, "I have never had plastic surgery, and there are many pop singers who have. I think that promoting insecurity in the form of plastic surgery is infinitely more harmful than an artistic expression related to body modification."

If you were wondering, body modification is definitely different than plastic surgery. Lady Gaga is known for her outrageous physical appearance whenever she's out in public and in regards to her facial horns she's been rocking for awhile, she explains, "Which, for the record, are a form of "artistic expression. I am an artist, and I have the ability and the free will to choose the way the world will envision me."

Yes you are, and so are others to choose to have plastic surgery right?! But I'm basically 50/50 with Miss Gaga. There are some plastic surgeries that don't need to be done such as breast or butt implants, but I think those that are scarred through accidents or genetically can fix their appearance to help with insecurity issues and help issue confidence. No, you don't need that 5th Botox appointment, or that Lipo procedure done again!

Ladies (and men), though it's a free country to express yourselves, what's most important is loving yourself first for everything that was God given to you. From your self confidence, your beauty will shine and make you infectious (in a good way) to others!!!
