GAGA "GA GA"...




Love her, hate her, loath her...no matter how you allow yourself to perceive the daring, questionable and unpredictable persona that is Lady Gaga, you will have a strong opinion about her latest Editorial shoot. Personally I think it is amazing! Gaga's most recent cover shoot for OUT magazine has an edge that seems to have been shied away from for quite some time. A large majority of Editorial work, as of late, has been restricted to "safe and sweet". This makes sense in a time of uncertainty, magazines need to sell and it isn't profitable to take any risks. But the risk that honored photographer Ellen von Unwerth took has payed off. She has captured the difficult balance of both beautiful yet ugly, feminine yet masculine, life as well as death and it plays out seamlessly...
