It looks like Lady Gaga has something to say ahead of her highly anticipated seventh studio album — and fans are all ears.

The pop star caught the attention of her Little Monsters with a cryptic Instagram post shared Friday (Sept. 20), giving no explanation as she shared a grainy image of white streaky text over a red background. “I’m ready for my interview,” it reads.


What does it mean? Fans have no clue. “WHATS HAPPENING OMG,” one person commented, while another follower wrote, “OH MY GOD!!! I DON’T KNOW WHAT IT’S ABOUT BUT I’M VERY READY TOO!!!”

Others questioned whether the message had something to do with her upcoming LP or Joker: Folie à Deux, in which she stars as Harley Quinn alongside Joaquin Phoenix. Gaga has been working on both projects over the past year, and she recently promoted the October-slated movie as well as made her red carpet debut with fiancé Michael Polansky at the Venice International Film Festival.

In a Sept. 5 interview with Vogue, the 13-time Grammy winner revealed that it was Polansky who encouraged her to get back to her dance-pop roots on her new record. “Michael is the person who told me to make a new pop record,” she recalled. “He was like, ‘Babe. I love you. You need to make pop music.’”

She also revealed that the album is scheduled for a February release, with the first single due out in October. “There’s a lot of pain associated with this adventure,” she added in the profile. “And when I start to explore that pain it can bring out another side to my artistry. When I’m here at this studio, I’m relaxed and I am able to face my demons and what’s remarkable is … that’s the music. I’m able to hear it back.”

William Shatner To Go Where He’s Never Gone Before on Heavy Metal Album Featuring Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden Covers

The 94-year-old TV icon teased that the untitled LP will feature 35 "metal virtuosos."

Forget about second acts in American life, TV legend William Shatner is up to his fourth, maybe 10th act at this point. The 94-year-old actor best known for playing the irascible James T. Kirk on the original Star Trek series and movies, as well as police sergeant T.J. Hooker in the 1980s is boldly going where even he hasn’t gone before.

In an Instagram post on Thursday (Feb. 19), the mutli-hyphenate performer who made his musical debut in 1968 with the beyond bizarre The Transformed Man LP featuring his florid readings of The Beatles’ “Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds” and Elton John’s “Rocket Man,” announced that he’s prepping his first heavy metal album at an age where metal typically goes into your body rather than comes out.
