- Music video for Lady Gaga's new single "G.U.Y".
- House of Gaga presents:
Part 1, Artpop
Money rains down. Greedy corporate types on a hunting spree with crossbows mill about angrily, coming to blows, fighting about money. Little 'angel' victim left behind, a callously trampled Lady Gaga. She'd been brought down by an arrow piercing through her back, impaled through her chest. She lies there, see-through pantyhose and convincing winged costume, but not as an angel, as officially described on the video's Wikipedia entry, more of a wretched pathetic sight looking more like a wounded buzzard. Feigning death, she lies there, till those buffoons, very satisfied with themselves, plod off looking for more to desecrate. Then she struggles to get up, to get away, to find shelter. The sun blazes down. She tries in vain to get rid of that cruel arrow, but the pain prohibits her, and she is getting weaker. "We could, we could belong together, we could, we could belong together...." The sun is merciless. But wait, buildings on the horizon. Big mansion. Help! "Cover me with your subtext and fantasy..." She crawls there and collapses at the main entrance. Hooded figures come out to help her. She is picked up carefully and carried inside.
Part 2, Venus
"Rocket # Nine, take off to the planet (to the planet)... Venus! Aphrodite lady seashell bikini (garden party)" Stricken angel/bird Gaga is assisted inside and carried aloft to the swimming pool, where she, wreathed in flowers, is revived, and miraculously healed. Turns out this is an Olympus-themed Greek God headquarters. Synchronized swimming commences in the pool. Cast members of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills (2010) appear to play instruments. In typical Gaga mode, she sits there comically in a fluffy white teddy bear/whatever costume. But she is also the snowy-haired temptress. Wearing a white one-piece bathing costume, Lady Gaga delivers an intro seguing into the next part.
Part 3, G.U.Y.
"I wanna be the girl under you, I wanna be the G.U.Y. ..." Lyrics that can be interpreted however you prefer. Most likely refers to sexual role reversal. Lady Gaga apppears on a seashell bed wearing a red La Perla swimsuit.. The synchronized swimming in the pool of the Gods continue, as Himeros, the God of Sexual Arousal, looks on. Utilizing the game Minecraft, famous men, two of them singers, Michael Jackson and John Lennon, are resurrected from death. Our heroine is seen in a Rapuntzel-length blond wig squirming on the floor with a muscular black man, all over his body. She is also a huntress in a gold two-piece, armed with a bow and arrow. A vintage black sedan stops in front of CorporateVille. Just to show that payback truly is a bitch, Lady Gaga wears a winged headdress as she heads for the showdown, she and Lisa Vanderpump armed with money cannons (?) another reference to the opening scene with the wounded angel/bird as bills of money fly everywhere. She takes ruthless revenge on those who tormented her, killing them in their offices. They are then turned into clones. A host of clones marches off out the gate, into the world.
Part 4, Manicure
This is simply Lady Gaga's song 'Manicure' playing as the long, long line of end credits roll down. Some downloaded versions exclude this. That's the almost eight-minute version. With the end titles, the length stretches past eleven.
