While picking up the top prize at the MTV Video Music Awards on September 12, Lady Gaga offered fans a token of her own. She released the name of her new album, Born This Way, and belted out a few bars from the yet-to-be-released title song, all while wearing a dress made of meat.
Gaga (picture) spilled the news about her new album while accepting the Video of the Year Award for �Bad Romance� Sunday night in Los Angeles. Prior to the awards, the superstar promised fans that if she took home the evening�s top honour, she would share the title of her new album, the follow-up to her 2008 debut album �The Fame�.
In addition to winning seven other awards at the VMAs, she revealed a few details about the upcoming Born This Way, to be released in 2011, calling it the �absolute greatest work� she�s ever done. �I�m so excited about it,� said Gaga. �The message, the melodies, the direction, the meaning, what it will mean to my fans and what it will mean to me in my own life � it�s utter liberation. I�m on the quest to create the anthem for my generation for the next decade, so that�s what I�ve done.�
The US pop star hasn�t yet revealed the album�s producers and collaborators. �I will never tell, because as soon as I tell, everyone starts working with them,� she said. �So all I can say is that nobody knows who they are. They�re all new.�
Lady Gaga told US magazine Rolling Stone earlier this summer that she would release the title of the album at midnight on New Year�s Eve. �I�ve been working on it for months now, and I feel very strongly that it�s finished right now,� she said in the interview.
She also revealed that fans could expect a different type of music on the new album, saying that her subject matter had shifted from fame to politics. �The message of the new music is now more bitter than it was before.�
In November 2009 she released The Fame Monster � a re-release of The Fame featuring eight new songs including �Telephone,� �Bad Romance,� and �Alejandro�. The two releases have together sold well over ten million copies worldwide
