Tonight when speaking with a film producer colleague, he remarked that this latest Lady Gaga video - Telephone, is basically Soft Porn. Gosh ? Then I remembered that I'd yet to watch it for myself. So I went out and found it in the Internets. Ohhhhh My My.. That's honestly the first thing that I said when it came up on the screen. It opens with Gaga in jail. We are mesmerized as the guards walk her to her cell, and then strip her - tossing her onto the bed and exiting the cell. one of the guards says - "See I told You She didn't have no dick" the other responds, "Too Bad". Next You see Gaga Nude - climbing onto the bars of the cell,. it's filtered gauzy in a crotch obscured shot that leaves you wondering because you can't see either way. Let the mind games begin.
WOOOOOO Clutch The Pearls Babies
This video is a whole lotta things all wrapped up in one. There's a planned mass murder; girl on girl prison yard sex; wild high fashion; high tech phones on hats; a police chase in a hot ass tricked out truck called "The Pussy Wagon"; and of course multiple lucrative fast product placements at various spots in the six minute thematic video. Wow, all of the classic elements of a good soft porn flick working together; he remarked.
Theres' no doubt this will open doors for Gaga in film. Someone is going to watch that scene of her menage a tois on the prison yard, and have a light bulb moment. I just hope that she's really ready for the big time. Her fashion sense is getting wilder all the time. Notice that in the prison yard sequence the glasses are smoking. Yes the cigarettes on the glasses are apparently lit. Wow now that's a unique effect I don't think I've ever seen before. The music itself doesn't start until the 2:55 mark when Gaga gets a call from Beyaki. She answers and starts singing into the phone on the wall. that's where the music and dancing begins.
Film uses all types of elements to pull a story together, and this one employs them all; with razor sharp precision. It's really more of a short film at nearly 9 plus minutes. Much in the vein of the Michael Jackson theatrical videos like Ghost. It actually spends so much time on the film aspects, that you forget about the dancing and singing for a moment. That is a huge step forward for Gaga, since her vids have been previously Panned as mostly fluff; centered around her crazy fashions.
The strange on film relationship between Gaga and Beyaki has gained a whole new fan base, no doubt. This is how artists cross over from market to market; and in the process make a substantial amount of money doing it. The amount of advertising in this video is record. That alone will make it a record cash earner. I think this is a hit for both Gaga and her advertisers. Innovation is a difficult road to travel for new concepts. Good Work Lady Gaga.
