An old demo recording of Lady Gaga singing a song titled “Second Time Around” has surfaced on the Internet this week.  It’s a kinder, gentler, (more boring?) Gaga.

What do you think?  EB reader Kat — thanks for the email! — thinks she sounds like Mariah Carey.  I think Beyonce.  What say you all?

Poor Lady Gaga’s chest exploded whilst performing at the 20th Annual MuchMusic Video Awards in Toronto, Canada.

Also there was Audrina Patridge in a cheap and ill-fitting dress, my fiance Bradley Cooper and the pure Jonas Brothers.  Oh, and I’m totally willing to support Kelly Clarkson in this whole body-acceptance thing she’s got going on, but there must be compromise.  No.  More.  Scarf.  Tops.

Rumer Willis appeared with her chin and Tila Tequila was positively stumped over the one-button operation of the Flip Mino HD camera.

Finally, in an admirable effort of frugality, Kim Kardashian fashioned her dress out of one of the extra costumes used by Fergie’s backup dancers.

The actual song begins around 2:50.

Love the song, bored by the video. Or, ahem, “short film.” I just plain don’t get the visual arts.

You have to watch the video of this interview Lady Gaga did with an Australian news site.

She’s alternately nice and bitchy, basically tells the interviewer she’s an idiot, and says there is only one thing a man can offer her — and it better be sizable.  And yeah, it is what you think so you might not want to play this video if you’re at work.

The song “Silly Boy” was released on the internet this week with vocals by Lady Gaga and Rihanna.  It gathered a lot of steam when Kanye West linked the track to his blog.

This new tune would be great and an awesome step forward for Rihanna especially, except for one tiny fly in the ointment:  It’s a fake.  Rihanna’s rep confirms to Us  that Riri didn’t record this song.

I can’t wait for Kanye’s ALL CAPS EXPLANATION OF WHAT EXACTLY IS GOING ON!

Just in case you hadn’t noticed them before, she put a big ole star on them and framed them with a… is that a gun holster? What is that?

The Dutchess did her best Tomb Raider impression on the red carpet at this Saturday’s 102.7 KIIS FM Wango Tango event– which does not refer to a Ted Nugent song, but a Summer Concert held in Irvine, CA.

Lady Gaga was also present, but turned the corner from delightfully insane antics to just plain old pyschosis when she started laying wet ones on Perez Hilton. Let’s all hope she soon goes back to talking to her tea cups.
