Lady Gaga is back. Like genuinely, properly, she's-got-a-new-single back. "Perfect Illusion" is here and it's got so many guest stars we've run out of fingers.
It's a bloody ridiculous list of names:
- Mark Ronson
- Tame Impala's Kevin Parker
- Justin Bieber hitmaker bloodpop (fka Blood Diamonds)
- Josh Homme of Queens Of The Stone Age
- Mother Monster herself, obvs
But wait - there's more! Speaking to Nick Grimshaw this morning on BBC Radio 1, Gaga revealed that some other big hitters are attached to the forthcoming record.
- Father John Misty
- BECK
- Florence Wlech (but not her Machine)
The album is out this year too.
Listen to "Perfect Illusion". Is it a case of too many cooks?
