Lady Gaga Still Likes to Take Pictures of Her Ass, Is Inspired by Rocky IV and Iron Maiden, and Wears Clothes Given to Her by Her Fans

We’re glad to see that while Gaga’s style and hair constantly evolve, she still embraces her signature money shot: the exposed ass. The picture at left, which we saw hints of a few months ago, is a promotional photo for her just released Born This Way album.

Coinciding with the release of Gaga’s long-anticipated album is an in-depth Rolling Stone interview, which you’ll be able to read this Friday. The mag published some juicy excerpts, making us excited to read the entire thing.

-Some sources of inspiration for Gaga?

Rihanna’s Stylist on Her Rolling Stone Cover: “If Rihanna and Kid Rock Had a Baby…”

by

It’s hard not to notice Rihanna’s Rolling Stone cover. The pop star’s flawless booty takes center stage, barely covered by a teeny-tiny pair of denim hot pants. Only they’re not denim. The magic booty “shorts” are actually “metal mesh shorts” according to the credits (Rihanna tweeted that they were “chain mail”), custom made by Michael Schmidt Studios for the shoot’s stylist, B. Akerlund.

You might have heard of B. Akerlund–she’s also styled Lady Gaga (she styled Gaga’s bubbly Rolling Stone cover and the video for “Paparazzi”), Madonna, and countless other pop icons. So we had to know, just what was she thinking with those shorts?

“The inspiration was if Rihanna and Kid Rock had a baby,” she told us. Fair enough. Let’s just hope that doesn’t actually happen IRL.
