Did she perform the full version of all of those songs? If so, why did she get at least double the amount of songs everyone else got? I know she is the biggest star there, but that seems kind of weird/unfair.

I really thought that although her voice started going out (possibly sick) towards the end and her looking beyond tired, she put on a helluva show. She showed 'ring rust' (wrestling term) or maybe 'tour' rust is better suited but that's understandable.
Scheiße is still my favorite BTW song so it was cool to see her open with it (I'm 95% sure its the next single). She was killing that Judas choreography like her life depended on it. The 'Hair' performance was very touching- not my favorite but still such a lovely tribute to Jamey (Bullying Is For Losers!). I liked You & I though I was worried Gaga was going to once again bust her ass or worse poke out a eye when she was on the motorcycle- shes kind of a clutz. The Edge of Glory was good (loved the skirt she added to her look) but that was when it was evident that her voice was starting to fade. Okay closing of 'Born This Way'.
Overall I'd give the show a B.
I look forward to her next tour with her actually performing HML/GH.

Forgot to add that her performances with Sting (Stand by Me/King of Pain) were quite impressive.  |

I was pretty damn impressed. Her energy is amazing. She keeps on going like there's no tomorrow. I haven't seen the performances for JD/LG, TEOG, or BTW but the others ones I saw and loved it. My minor complaint is that she really didn't perform Scheiße. It was just an opener of sorts.  |

I don't get why she got so many more songs than everyone else too-do they have the "headliners" at the end perform more? Like, I feel some other artist got more than five as well but I am blanking on the name.
Someone also said she implied HML is the next single-is that true?
Her voice wasn't great and she obviously looked tired, but she commanded the stage in a way that I did not see from some of the other performers. She just...belongs there.

And she played "Heavy Metal Lover" after "Born This Way". Just finished watching most of her set, loved it!

I believe both night closers (Jay-Z and Lady Gaga) got 45 minutes for their set. I was also very impressed with Lady Gaga's stage presence, touching performance of 'Hair' with dedication to that young kid who sadly took his own life. That being said, her vocals sounded very average to below average to me though. |

I have been seeing a lot of positive press/reviews about her set. Good for her.

On the scene at the iHeartRadio Music Festival, day two: Lady Gaga takes over the showLeave it to Lady Gaga to co-opt a music festival featuring tons of other artists and make it her own. The Queen of Pop appeared on stage as the final performer last night at the iHeartRadio Music Festival at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas and stayed on stage for well over an hour—much longer than any of the other acts. “They told me I was only allowed to play for 45 minutes,” she told the crowd. “But I think you’re all pretty drunk so you probably don’t know what time it is, do you?”And it’s true: No one was complaining that she was on stage for so long, serving up hit after hit, including “Judas,” “You and I,” “Just Dance,” and “Bad Romance,” which basically blew the roof off the arena. One of the most heartfelt moments of the evening came when Gaga performed her single “Hair,” which she dedicated to a special fan of hers, 14-year-old Jamey Rodemeyer, who committed suicide last weekend after being bullied. During the dedication, Gaga said: “Jamey I know you’re up there looking at us, you’re not a victim, you’re a lesson to all of us, I know it’s a bit of a downer, but sometimes the right thing’s more important than the music, let’s do this one for Jamey.” His picture stayed on one of the huge jumbotron screens throughout much of the tune. The tribute was emotional for lots of the crowd—I spotted several concert-goers crying. And, of course, Gaga didn’t let her performance of “Hair” go by without inserting some ad-libs: “Bullying is for losers!” she cried during the song, which ended with a rain of blue and silver balloons from the ceiling. As gimmicky as something like this could come off as being, Gaga pulled it off very gracefully. Another of the buzziest moments of the night, too, came via Gaga, when she pulled Sting on stage to perform with her. During her first encore, Gaga sang “Alejandro,” “Telephone,” and “Papparazzi,” which eventually spiraled into her heaving bosom covered in blood. Gaga had died of fame! So she asked for “the police”—headed by Sting—to bring her back to life. “Sting is one of the most kind and beautiful people I’ve met,” Gaga said, as he came out. The pair sang “Stand By Me” and “King of Pain” before Gaga ended the set and said she was going to follow Sting “off stage because he’s cute.” But, naturally, she returned: Her second encore found the crowd melting down over “Edge of Glory.” Then she left again. And returned yet again for a third encore of “Born This Way,” which she started acapella before moving into the version we all know and love. Oh, and her hair was short by this point, too. music-mix.ew.com/2011/09/25/iheartradio-review-day-two-lady-gaga-sting-jennifer-lopez/

Does anyone know what's up with her duet with Cher?
I remember reading that it would be out in September and there's less than a week left in September. . .

A top 40 station in my area played clips of the iHeart Radio show and the morning host complimented Hair (which is good considering they've had a few not so positive comments this era). My gut is saying that they're going with Hair.

If they do Hair I will be ok with it, but I really want Hair to be the video that TEOG wasn't. Meaning simple, but not too simple-just a touching, direct video.

Is there a chance that if the November release of the GaGa thing is a re-release of Born This Way, that it will contain the duet with Cher and serve as a duel release from GaGa's record and Cher's record? Maybe it'll be the only new track along with whatever the DVD is?
I'm also wonder if, whether or not the Cher thing will be part of Born This Way, that it will serve as a stand-alone single and that while it's out, there won't be a single from BTW out at the same time as to not interfere with it? Perhaps it'll either be a short break until the new year and a 5th single from BTW or perhaps there won't be any more official singles until the next album?

Someone posted this in the You and I thread. auspOp, a trustworthy Australian music news blog, says that a repackage of Born This Way has appeared on the new release schedule, for November 25. They don't know anything further about it or what it may or may not contain. They posted this picture:  |

MTV Exclusive: Lady Gaga To Premiere Film At Paris Fashion WeekSinger will debut the film during the Mugler fashion show. Lady Gaga is set to give her Little Monsters a big surprise at Paris Fashion Week next Wednesday. MTV News can exclusively announce that Mother Monster will debut a brand-new short film during the spring/summer 2012 fashion show for the Mugler Women's Wear Collection in Paris next week. The film was directed by "Yoü and I" fashion-film directors and fashion photographers Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin under the creative direction of Nicola Formichetti, Mugler's creative director and Gaga's stylist. The film will feature a previously-unreleased remix of one of Gaga's songs. For those not lucky enough to attend, a special edit of the film will drop the following day online. In an exclusive behind-the-scenes still, fans are teased with a peek at Gaga's face and her long, straight blond hair. In addition, starting Monday, Mugler.tumblr.com will feature live blogging from Mugler's Atelier. While little is known about what the Haus of Gaga have up their sleeve for this latest film, the clapper board does reveal some hints. The date on the board is 09.20.2011, perhaps a hint as to when Gaga, Formichetti, and Inez and Vinoodh shot the video. This isn't the first time Gaga and Mugler have collaborated in this way. Besides the fact that Formichetti is her stylist, she's also given fans brand-new music at his shows. In January, she debuted a remix of her Born This Way track "Scheiße" at a Mugler fashion show. Then in March, Gaga not only walked in a Mugler show, she also debuted her song "Government Hooker" during the same show. Experts agree that the Mugler/Gaga relationship is one of the best in the business. "Gaga working with people like Nicola Formichetti has allowed designers like him and like the late Alexander McQueen to step out of the world of high fashion, which is often perceived of as elite, and become part of the mainstream music landscape as she's used high fashion to build her own personal musical narrative," MTV Buzzworthy blog editor Tamar Anitai said. MTV Style blog editor Mary H.K. Choi calls their work together "a pop culture moment. ... I think we can all agree that Lady Gaga's relationship with Nicola Formichetti has been entirely synergistic," she said. "When she walked the Mugler runway in Paris last season, not only did she model with aplomb, but her debut of 'Government Hooker' galvanized the show as a pop culture moment. The clothing was beautiful, granted, very much the sexy, bombastic Mugler aesthetic of the '80s and early '90s, but the confluence of Gaga, her music and Formichetti — all streamed live on Facebook — made the collection a must-see event." - MTV.com    the-fame.org  Nicola Formichetti's Twitter
