Who
needs clothes? Lady Gaga released a first look at the cover art and two
separate snippets of her new song Venus on Friday night and Saturday
morning
The constantly changing artist gave fans a first listen to her new disco beat track late on Friday, before releasing a second section in the early hours of Saturday.
Explaining the first snippet, Gaga said on Twitter: 'I wrote 4 hooks in Venus. The snippet is of the first two before the true chorus. The rise before the orgasm.'
While Lady Gaga is hoping to space travel but from the safety of her bed with the line 'Let's blast off to our new dimension (in your bedroom)', her cover art plays homage to one of art's classic images.

The star is already on the promotional trail, first preforming at a album listening party in Berlin, Germany, before heading to England.

The singer stepped out with her arms raised, wearing the same see-through creation from earlier and a possessed stare, she walked barefoot on the pavement.

appearance was nothing short of terrifying as she approached fans,
hands, feet and face painted white and creepy glass-eye lenses.The eccentric star showed off all she's got, wearing a flesh-coloured thong and no bra, giving the crowds a glimpse of her nipples and bare bottom.
She also wore a crimped blonde wig and had dyed blonde eyebrows and white eyelashes, which left her with a shocked expression.
As Gaga left the hotel, she walked across the street with no shoes on, but luckily she had a team of minders around her to stop her stepping in anything she shouldn't.
