Gaga has previewed her latest cover for V magazine, which shows the singer and fiancé Taylor Kinney completely naked in a post-coital embrace, having just done what she described as “adult finger painting”.
And if you think that sounds a bit rude, just wait till you find out what it actually entailed...
Lady Gaga's V magazine cover
In case you don’t understand the euphemism, what she means in real terms is that they painted their bodies and then had sex on a canvas, which they've claimed was all done in the name of “peace”.
Explaining why the canvas was significant, Gaga told the magazine: "We made love on this canvas on a Sunday in Chicago. We made love amidst chaos. We talked about shootings. We made love amidst terrorism.
"And we talked about how people's hearts are also suffering all over the world as they watch and witness a swell of violence. We made love amidst violence.”
Lady Gaga is the guest-editor of the latest issue of the US fashion publication, which sees her pose for 16 different covers.
"I could not complete the covers of this issue without relinquishing one to an important cause,” she said.
Gaga and Taylor
“Taylor and I talk all the time about our unique existence on this earth. How can we use our creativity to heal people?
“Since we first met, Taylor's been painting and drawing all over me. Years ago, when we were secretly living in San Diego and crashing on the floor of a beach shack, we never wore shoes. He told me he wanted to make love to me on a canvas. And though he made many murals on my body in the wee, small hours of our stoked, gypsy mornings with our friends, for whatever reason we never got around to it.”
The issue will be priced at $50 and 100% of the sales of the physical issue through the shop site will go directly to the Lady Gaga’s charity, the Born This Way Foundation.
