At last!

I've been waiting for this! I was really disappointed though to see how deliberately and pointedly he was mean-spirited towards Gaga herself. Weird Al classics like "I'm fat", "Like a surgeon", or more recently "White and nerdy", are in no way a jab personally at the original performer. In this video, he clearly doesn't like Gaga and goes to great lengths to run her down. That, I don't like so much.

Well, he's always poked fun a bit. Smells Like Nirvana:

Now I'm mumblin' and I'm screamin'
And I don't know what I'm singin'
Crank the volume, ears are bleedin'
I still don't know what I'm singin'
We're so loud and incoherent
Boy this oughtta bug your parents
Yeah!

The victims just need to take it in stride, Weird Al isn't exactly the most savage of satirists.

Random note: the word sarcasm literally means "tearing of flesh".

I Liked It

Hilarious.

Loved it.

I love everything about Lady Gaga except her music. She is just way too locked into that female vocal-dance groove. At least Madonna limited that style to only half the songs on any one album. I really do like the kid, but her creative side needs a few more minds at work. She is spreading herself too thin.

Only vaguely related: Kids react to Lady Gaga.

Was it just me, or did it look like they pasted his head (yay!) onto a dancer's body?

I was thinking "damn, he'll give Eddie Izzard a run for his money" Then I saw his head move just wrong with that porcupine thing. So for the rest of the vid I paid better attention. Yeah, that's not a 51 year old anybody. That's some good CGI.
