Apparently the cover is fake. #CONFIRMED The Born This Way Cover leaked is a JOKE. Official Cover coming on TUESDAY I can't find any info on that. I don't think it's true.

If it's not the actual cover - then it's something on Gaga's part. She posted it herself. I doubt it's a joke, but there's a tiny chance that it's not final or she'll modify it because of the negative reactions. I'm 99.5% sure this is what we'll see on our CDs in a month's time.

Yea Gaga isn't the type to change something because of a negative reaction. And I highly doubt it's a joke. I'd believe Gaga's twitter over some unknown source that claims to have inside information.

Fans are either right or reading too much into this. Lady Gaga removed the cover from Facebook, and a fan's interpretation is this:
"The real album cover comes out in 3 days, she put this as a fake and killed it on her page (removed it) now the real one will come to life after 3 days... She's showing the story of Jesus' resurrection through the art, because its Easter. ♥"
And since I'm not Christian, I actually had to look up the whole thing: the resurrection of Jesus refers to the return to bodily life of Jesus on the third day following his death by crucifixion.
They're tying this with the Judas betrayal 4 days prior thing.
Thoughts?

She hasn't it taken down from her Twitter. I can't @ the cover but it's not the end of the world, and I was dying looking back at some of the images people posted on here!

Checked Gaga Boards to see what they're thinking. A little elaboration on that idea;

Oh DEAR.
This is hilarious either way; if it's fake, Gaga needs to calm it down. If its real, her fans are insane.

Knowing Gaga and being a little monster, it's probably true! I don't know how she comes up with all this. She's like, 1 year older than me. lol...

I'm not sure what reading too much into Gaga-related things is. I still don't understand what Alejandro was about

"The 3 days and a new one on Easter" theory seems more probable then the "she's depicting betrayal through having her fans turn on her because of a crappy art job" theory. In all honesty, second theory does turn out to be true it would seem like she's backtracking and trying to make it seem like it was planned the whole time when really it's only because of the negative reaction.

I'm one that thinks most of the explanations for her attention seeking stunts are bulls**t. I'd emphatically disagree - it's incredibly obvious. She knows exactly what she's doing, whether the reason she gives us is rubbish or not. It's not just a randomised bunch of release dates/appearances. Whether you like/agree with it or not, it's clearly planned out.

So no, it's not "clear" or "obvious" cause we don't even know if it's true or not. -- There's just such a big disconnect from the fun Gaga when she first came out and the "I like to over think everything" Fame Monster Gaga that's it's hard for me to take her seriously without calling bullshit. Like... wheredahell did that come from? It wouldn't be a problem if the stuff she said made sense, but since half of it doesn't/didn't...

The only reason it's being doubted, really, is hysteria and fan theories. The promotional campaign for her singles/album has clearly been thought out - of course it has. There is a disconnect from that yes, because she's a different person/artist. People grow and change. It didn't come out of the blue at all, I don't think - it was apparent in her photo shoots, interviews and from Paparazzi onwards in particular. I mean, who are we to criticise what she thinks a song she wrote and a video she recorded symbolises? I feel like I've just stated the obvious twice. An artist record/company plan a campaign around an album and people change over time. Come now.

I'm referring to the theories about the fake cover, the unveiling of a "real" cover & if they happen to be true, not her promotion schedule. Clearly, you have no idea what I'm talking about.

These memes have been hilarious today. But really, this one reminded me of what she said in Gagavision: that she spent 72 hours working on it and it's glorious. I don't see at all how you could spend 3 days creating this motorcycle thing. That further confirms the possibility.
