MTV — Lady Gaga is currently in the midst of the Australian leg of her massive Monster Ball tour — with scheduled stops in Japan and Europe — and, as you probably know by now, she’s also putting the finishing touches on the much-anticipated “Telephone” video, too.

But neither of those things are standing in the way of yet another ambitious endeavor, a planned 3-D concert and subsequent DVD.

On Monday (March 8), MTV News spoke to a rep for her label, Interscope Records, who told us that “there are talks about a 3-D concert and DVD in the near future.” No other information — including just how a 3-D concert would manifest — was available at press time.

Late last week, Gaga fansites began speculating about plans for a 3-D DVD, but this is the first time a concert has been mentioned. In December, Gaga released a deluxe edition of her Fame Monster album, which included a pair of 3-D glasses that she mysteriously explained would come in handy “for things happening soon.”

In the mean time, her Little Monsters are gearing up for the debut of the “Telephone” video — the follow-up to her striking “Bad Romance” clip — which, after weeks of teasing from Gaga herself and some last-minute editing is scheduled to premiere Thursday at 11:30 p.m. ET on E! News.

T Magazine — In the contemporary fashion dialogue, no celebrity is paid more lip service than Lady Gaga. Such is her reach that the Global Language Monitor recently revealed that “Lady Gaga” topped the list of the most searched fashion terms, with “no pants” a close third. The Moment recently caught up with the fashion plate du jour, who was surprisingly candid and dressed in mufti — an outfit of checked shirt, black tights and vertiginous heels that brought to mind Mary-Kate without the grande nonfat latte — to talk about everything from her new gig as a mouthpiece for M.A.C. and its AIDS fund to her constantly referring to herself in the third person.

I have to say that meeting you is rather odd. It’s like interviewing Mr. T. What to call you?

[Laughs] Lady Gaga or Gaga is fine. Everyone calls me one of the two, and it’s very normal. I think it’s mostly about being in my world and understanding what I do. Everyone here is around the magic that happens when I work with, say, Terence Koh or Francesco Vezzoli or Frank Gehry. When you’re around me and really see that all I do is live and breathe for my work, it’s not strange, it’s just Gaga.

Got it. Before we turned on the tape recorder, I was talking to you about betrayal. Is that something you think about more than ever?

Absolutely. You have no idea. More than dealing with betrayal, though, what is really hard is that I have had to leave my past behind me. It’s hard knowing who to trust with your personal life. When you cry in your room at night, you don’t always know who to call. So I am very close to my family.

Why would you disconnect yourself from your past?

I left it behind because I had to. For many reasons, like drugs. It’s no secret that I have had problems with drugs in the past. And some places represent to me things in terms of my mental and physical health, so you learn to move on, to preserve what your mission in life is, and my greater mission is my fans.

According to a fan who met GaGa at last night’s show in Newcastle, GaGa is planning to film the Monster Ball for a 3D DVD release! I wonder if that’s what the 3D glasses in The Fame Monster Super Deluxe are for . Stay tuned for more details as they become available.

MTV – Lady Gaga has never been shy about her adoring loyalty to her fans, whom she calls her “little monsters.” And despite her off-the-wall getups and sometimes provocative lyrics, she wants to make sure she’s still someone they can look up to.

“I find it so important now to be a role model and a figure. And I know that may sound strange to some people, but most important is my connection with my fans and the connection that they breed with one another,” she told reporters at the Viva Glam charity launch in London on Monday. She’s a spokesperson for the MAC AIDS Fund’s campaign, which donates 100 percent of its proceeds from the sale of lipstick and lip gloss to the global fight against AIDS and HIV.

Gaga is currently in the U.K. for her epic Monster Ball Tour, to which she recently added more dates, and she compared playing shows there to her native New York City. “London is not always an easy crowd, and I remember because I used to open for so many people here. I always found solace when I went to the gay clubs because they were always wild and dancing, and they really loved and enjoyed me.

“But the O2 was something I’ve never experienced before,” she added about her stop in London. “Everybody was dancing and screaming and on their feet the whole show. It was really remarkable. I look out into the audience and I hear them singing my music and supporting me and I want to do everything I can to protect them because some of them are really troubled and insecure.”

Lady Gaga’s “Telephone” rises 5-3 with Greatest Gainer honors on Pop Songs, one notch below the singer’s former three-week No. 1, “Bad Romance.”

With the ascent of “Telephone,” Lady Gaga becomes one of just three women in the chart’s archives to occupy two of the top three simultaneously.

Here is a recap of the women to claim two-thirds of the top three:

Lady Gaga (2010)
“Bad Romance”
“Telephone” (featuring Beyonce)

Ashanti (2002)
“Foolish”
“What’s Luv?” (Fat Joe featuring Ashanti)

Mariah Carey (1995)
“One Sweet Day” (Mariah Carey & Boyz II Men)
“Fantasy”

Should “Telephone” book a ride to the top, Lady Gaga, with her first six Pop Songs entries, would tie Mariah Carey for most No. 1s in the chart’s history.

InStyle’s Entertainment Editor met Lady Gaga and Cyndi Lauper to talk style, sex and celibacy – and she discovered the girls just wanna have fun… safely.

Monday’s launch of MAC’s new Viva Glam lipsticks was extra special because I got to meet and interview the campaign’s new faces – Lady GaGa and 80s pop legend Cyndi Lauper. My inner gay man could barely contain himself.

The ladies were in town to promote the MAC. campaign – From Our Lips – and to also spread the word about safe sex for women. Did you know that we ladies are more likely to become infected with HIV than men? Nope – us either.

That’s why every penny (excluding VAT) from the sale of the Viva Glam lipsticks goes towards the MAC AIDS Fund. (Lady GaGa’s shade is a gorgeous candy pink and Cyndi’s is a luscious coral red),

I can report that far from being intimidating divas both stars were charm personified. GaGa is petite and slender (nowhere near the emaciated figure some papers would have you believe) while Cyndi is quirky, sweet and spoke so softly you could barely hear her.

But before we got down to the serious stuff I just had to find out what GaGa was wearing (yep, she was making another brave fashion statement). ‘My shoes are from a sex shop and so are my lace tights. Since we’re talking about sex today it’s kind of appropriate!’ she laughed. ‘This [points to her lace bodysuit] is actually a dress that I pinned to make it look like a leotard – it was a gift from the Pet Shop Boys who are my friends. They had their costume designer make it for me. And the hat is by Charlie Le Mindu.’

But they weren’t in London meeting zillions of journos just to talk about their wardrobes. So let’s hear it from the girls…
