Rolling Stone

While the singer's music career is her primary focus, it's not the main source of her livelihood. Will her legal slip-up bring her modeling career to a halt?

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?
