Considering that Gaga is only 23 years old, I have to give her mad props about the sheer audacity of this video. And the cultural references here are so on point- "Thelma & Louise," "Faster Pussycat Kill Kill," Bettie Page, Quentin Tarantino, etc. Really, how many people from her generation really understand irony and camp like that? There's so much to love about this video- drag queens, Prison for Bitches, the Pussy Wagon, the telephone head pieces, the butch dykes, the sunglasses made of lit cigarettes, etc. It's just so chock full of trashy goodness... I'm just overcome.
