Music Video: Bad Romance – Lady Gaga

Posted by: DRBrooklyn730 on: November 11, 2009

Gaga really brought the avant garde in this video. The makeup. The hair. The fashion. Alexander McQueen! The style was ferocious and unapologetic. Just like love in a bad romance.
Love this song by the way. It is so catchy!
