The Birth of Mother Monster


Hatching eggs, mitochondria, science fiction and Madonna homages, painted bodies, dia de los muertos, and the birth of "Mother Monster" all sum up the newest avant garde music video from no other than Lady Gaga. Call it genius, call it weird, but don't you call it queer.

Lady Gaga dropped her new video yesterday for her anthem "Born This Way," the single that caused a buzz all over the internet and blogosphere. Lady Gaga has always been vocal about gay rights, and has always instilled in her fans to simply love who you are. This could quite possibly be one of Gaga's realest songs as she sings the lyrics, "don't be a drag, just be a queen."

The video itself tops the song, which I'm still not quite sure I like yet. Perhaps it will have to grow on me like "Pokerface." The more you listen to it, the more it worms your way into your head. The video; however, is really a work of performance art made by the Haus of Gaga.

Who doesn't want to see Lady Gaga half naked in a sea of skin tones, voguing, dancing and strutting like a woman at the top of her fame? Check out the video below!
