Lady Gaga set her league of little monsters atwitter last month when she let slip that she’s already completed work on the full-length follow-up to her smash debut, The Fame. That disc won’t be out until next year, though, so we have yet another stopgap from the woman who’s done as much as anyone lately to keep the music industry afloat. The Remix collects 10 club-ready interpretations of tracks from The Fame and its expanded reissue, The Fame Monster; it’s a cash grab, but one that handily reminds you how much Gaga has done to push American pop back toward the dance floor.

The best cuts — such as Starsmith’s retro-’80s take on ”Bad Romance” and a haunting version of ”Paparazzi” by Madonna collaborator Stuart Price — emphasize the contradiction at the core of Gaga’s hits, in which jubilant Eurodisco grooves can’t quite conceal a touch of stage-kid melancholy. Elsewhere you get brainless beat worship (Richard Vission’s six-minute ”Just Dance”) and iffy indie-electro experimentation (Passion Pit’s ”Telephone”). But hey, all those baby beasts need feeding, right? B–

If you haven’t purchased your copy of ‘The Remix’ yet, make sure you pre-order it on iTunes now!

With their grey hair and glasses, they are decades older than her average fanbase. But these cowboys were thrilled to meet Lady Gaga when she popped into their local bar yesterday. The pop star was just as happy – when she first visited The Round-Up Saloon in Dallas, Texas, she was an unknown aspiring artist. Two years later she dropped in for a drink fresh from her huge stadium performance at the American Airlines Center.

This time she received a huge reception, with one over-eager fan even climbing up to the roof area to get her to sign her arm. The owners Alan Pierce and Gary Miller first met Gaga when her tour manager contacted them to ask if she could perform a slot in summer 2008. They said they weren’t keen, as ‘the next Madonna’ wasn’t the usual type of act to perform at the bar. But the two gave Gaga a chance and she played a couple of songs.

Two years later she was back in the city as part of her world tour, and surprised them by booking out the roof area and arriving with her 15-strong entourage, including her mother, to celebrate her whirlwind success. Pierce told Thecount.com: ‘She was nice and wonderful now, as she was before she became a big star.’
And Gaga even got a memento of her visit – a belt buckle.

Up and coming pop singer, Sky Ferreira, talks about Gaga in a recent interview with PAPERMAG:

What’s your take on the current Gaga-fied pop world with all the glitz and glamour? You kept it simple with the video for the Rankin-directed “One”.

I love the whole dramatic over the top thing. I like songs to be like chapters. Some simple, some extreme. I want each video and song to be something completely unexpected. Not meaning unexpected for “shock factor” — more just to experiment. I don’t want to do something to just shock people. I’ll only do something because I think it’s awesome and I want to do it. Not like “Oh, OK. I need to do this and that so I can get their attention.” That’s why I love Lady Gaga because I think it’s the same with her. She’s made everyone have to step up their game.

Lady GaGa was spotted at Whole Foods today in Highland Park, TX. A girl who works at Whole Foods asked for a picture with her and Daniel Hickman took the photo.
