MUSIC NEWS: BEYONCE TO TEAM WITH LADY GAGA FOR “VIDEO PHONE?”


It was a known fact that Billboard’s Woman of the Year, Beyonce, was prepping to release a new single from her latest studio album, I Am… Sasha Fierce. But now rumors have hit the blogosphere that Bey will team with none other than Lady Gaga for a remix of the Bangladesh-produced, Sean Garrett-penned track, “Video Phone.”



“On Oct. 7, Lady Gaga and BeyoncĂ© were working on the video together at a studio in NYC,” an insider reveals exclusively to Life & Style. “Everything on the set was being kept very hush-hush, and security was extremely tight.”

“In the video,” says the insider, “BeyoncĂ© wears a feathered dress. And of course Lady Gaga wears something wild. The fashion is sick and insane.” [SOURCE]

Beyonce is also set to release two DVD’s in November. One is I Am… Yours (released November 24th), the hotly anticipated taping of her live tour, as well as a 2-disc documentary, titled Beyond the Ballad. Lady Gaga, who is preparing to headline a new U.S. tour this fall, is also rereleasing her debut album, The Fame Monster, which will also hit stores on the 24th of November.

This should be interesting. Both artists are known for their showmanship and are at their peaks. This collaboration will be monumental.

"ORA" WATCH Tell yo Friends!!





The concept has a heavy emphasis on haute horlogerie. What that means exactly is that the “Ora” is designed with superior craftsmanship, technicity and originality to transcend every other segment of watch on the market regardless of brand, status or price. It focuses on the intricacy and prestige of fine watch making and embraces complexity and diversity on materials and methods used to deliver the time correctly. The time is delivered via three separate, but seemingly cohesive, tapes; one displaying the hour, one displaying the minute and one displaying the day. The shape of the watch is a direct result of an “inside-out” designing approach where the moving parts dictated the overall form of the timepiece’s outer shell.

MUSIC NEWS: KANYE WEST & LADY GAGA ‘FAME KILLS’ TOUR CANCELED SAYS LIVE NATION

Live Nation released a brief statement and did not offer any explanation. Refunds are available for those who brought tickets for the tour. It was to kick off Nov. 10 in Phoenix and was scheduled to run through at least January.

If you remember, West told Jay Leno he was planning to take time off in wake of the VMA Taylor Swift fiasco.
