Lady Gaga slammed over Judas lyrics

Filed under:

Lady Gaga JudasPA

What a surprise - Lady Gaga is out to shock again. This time she has incurred the wrath of religious figures with her new musical offering Judas (couldn't see that one coming).

The song was released yesterday and has caused something of a furore thanks to lyrics such as: "I'm just a Holy Fool, oh baby he's so cruel, but I'm still in love with Judas, baby."
It hasn't gone down well with US group, the Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights.

President of the group Bill Donohue told HollywoodLife.com: "This is a stunt... Lady Gaga tries to continue to shock Catholics and Christians in general: she dresses as a nun... she swallows the rosary. She has not morphed into a caricature of herself."

He added: "She is trying to rip off Christian idolatry to shore up her talentless, mundane and boring performances."

Er... love her or loathe her, we're not sure Gaga could be called "mundane and boring".

Still, we fully expect the video to really get religious groups in a lather. Gaga has reportedly called it "the most exciting artistic moment of [her] career".

And according to Digital Spy, the film will tell Gaga's version of the Bible - co-director Laurieann Gibson has already declared: "It's really going to shock the world."

What do you think? Is Gaga running out of shock tactics? Your thoughts on the matter below please...

Lady Gaga is probably the first pop star since glam rock to be more famous for her zany outfits than her music - and she never fails to make the effort! Check out our gallery of her many, many looks...

Everybody loves a shiny disco ball, but we don't all want to look like one.

Trust Gaga to come up with the mirrorball dress - for the girl who really knows how to party.

You know the maxim that "less is more"? Well in Gaga's case we think "more is more" might be a better term.

Wacky hat, loads of feathers, pink hair, gold mask... but somehow it works.

Gaga channels Dame Edna at the launch of her "Heartbeats" headphones - marketed in conjunction with Dr Dre.

Gaga was named "stylemaker of the year" at the Accessories Council Awards in New York in November 2009.

We assume a veil counts as an accessory, otherwise she was letting the side down by turning up to accept it without a handbag!

Forget for a moment the general incongruity of Lady Gaga being in Blackpool and ponder what tyou'd wear if you were meeting the queen.

Now take a look at this picture and marvel at Gaga's front. That's what the talent show dancers behind her are doing, we're sure.

We hope nobody told Her Maj that Gaga isn't a real aristocrat!

One of our favourite Gaga costumes here, the lace bodysuit and crinkly black hat ensemble.

We love how it's a make-up launch and virtually all you can see of her face is her lips.

It's the little details...

Meow! Gaga strikes a feline pose as she is snapped by the paps at Tokyo's airport.

Looks like she's been writing on her arm with her mascara there.

Ever wondered what happened to all the lace doilies you used to see at your elderly relatives' houses?

Well it looks like Gaga snapped them up to make this dainty outfit.

Gaga turned-up in this ensemble to collect a gong at the Platinum Awards in Germany.

We're not sure what her award was for - but we're guessing it might have been for the best Scottish Widows advert lookalike.

We know it gets very hot in New York City in the summer, but do you really have to strip to your bra and pour water over your head Gaga?

You do? Oh well, carry on then.
