Well holy shit, this is a twisted video.
This is what Lady Gaga told MTV about the music video:
"I knew [Francis Lawrence's] ability as a director is so much higher than what I could [do]," Gaga explained to MTV News last week. "There's this one shot in the video where I get kidnapped by supermodels. I'm washing away my sins and they shove vodka down my throat to drug me up before they sell me off to the Russian mafia."
As if being kidnapped by supermodels before being sold off to the Russian mafia isn't bizarre enough, Gaga also decided to step up her fashion game in the clip and include some razor-blade sunglasses -- yep, razor-blade sunglasses.
"I wanted to design a pair for some of the toughest chicks and some of my girlfriends -- don't do this at home! -- they used to keep razor blades in the side of their mouths," she explained. "That tough female sprit is something that I want to project. It's meant to be, 'This is my shield, this is my weapon, this is my inner sense of fame, this is my monster.' "
Ah, okay. Well go with that.
Watch the video after the jump.
