Who’s Bad? Lady Gaga takes cues from Michael Jackson’s Bad… She humped inflatable pool toys in the video for “Just Dance” and taunted enormous dogs with her “Poker Face.” For her next trick, pop provocatease Lady GaGa is going old school. Shot inside a warehouse at the Port of L.A. (where I visited for a feature on the tiny blond sequin-spreader that will run in the magazine next week), the “LoveGame” video is set on a subway platform, wet concrete glistening beneath a menacing flock of bondage-loving biker-gang dancers who back the Lady through a routine that’s part Rhythm Nation, part Blonde Ambition Tour, and generally takes so many cues from Michael Jackson’s “Bad” clip that after one of the nearly two dozen runs through the chorus, GaGa herself actually stage-whispered, “Who’s bad?”
I CALLED IT WHEN I SAW THIS VIDEO LAST SPRING.
