Lady Gaga;s Judas to drop April 19th!

The opening minute or so of the 41st installment of Lady Gaga's Gagavision, the first edition of the pop superstar's video blog after a lengthy hiatus, shows her getting her makeup applied with a searing techno song playing as the soundtrack. As the close-up footage of Gaga's face gets rolling, words appear on the screen announcing, "Music from Born This Way 5-23-11."

But it's the end of the Gagavision episode that likely will excite the singer's fans the most, as it includes an announcement all of her Little Monsters have been waiting for -- the release date for her next single, "Judas." As Gaga is shown dancing in rehearsals for the "Judas" video, which she co-directed with her creative director, Laurieann Gibson, Mother Monster is heard in a voice-over saying, "So that concludes Gagavision Number 41. Judas is coming. Let the cultural baptism begin." A message is then shown that reads, "Judas April 19. If they were not who you were taught they would be, would you still believe?"

The Gagavision installment also gives fans a glimpse at what life is like for Gaga, sometimes in a grainy black-and-white documentary style similar to Madonna's "Truth or Dare." The video is filled with behind-the-scenes footage of Gaga, getting her makeup done, getting styled to do promo ("We should just wear a classic black suit all the time or just nudity," she remarks as she checks herself in the mirror while wearing a partially see-through black outfit) and approaching a protestor at one of her Monster Ball tour stops.
