GAGA ON GLEE

 

FOX’s hit show Glee could be getting their biggest guest star to date. According to www.ContactMusic.com, series creator Ryan Murphy reached out the “Telephone” singer who said that she would “love to be a part of it.” So what this means so far is that there will be an episode featuring her music this season, but an appearance by Gaga is yet to be confirmed. Murphy also praised Madonna, who allowed ten of her songs to be used in a forthcoming episode that will be a tribute to the “Like a Prayer” singer.

MADONNA’S BOYFRIEND FEELS MARRIED

 

Madonna and boyfriend Jesus Luz aren’t officially married, but that doesn’t mean much to the 23-year-old model and DJ. According to an interview he did with Brazil’s RG Vogue magazine, Luz said, “I consider myself a married man. I have a family. At my age, my father was also married.

MTV DID NOT BAN GAGA’S NEW VIDEO

 

In the wake of reports that surfaced over the weekend claiming that MTV had banned Lady Gaga’s nearly ten-minute long video for “Telephone,” a spokesperson for the channel has clarified the situation. She explained, "MTV did not ban Lady Gaga and Beyoncé's 'Telephone' video — in fact, we premiered it on Friday, March 12th, on-air and online at MTV.com, two days before this story was falsely reported. Fans can continue to catch the video as we repeat it on-air and online." The rumor appears to have begun with a segment that aired on CNN on Sunday in which reporters said that MTV had banned the clip. The "Telephone" video went live on MTV.com at 12:30 AM on Friday, an hour after it premiered on E!, and began airing on MTV that morning at 9:30 AM as part of the Lady Gaga Artist Collection, which ended with a full-length airing of the video. The clip has been viewed more than 14 million times on YouTube since its release late Thursday.
