| Lady Gaga - People Magazine |
Lady Gaga's recent makeup looks are generating quite a bit of buzz. The cover for her hit new single "Applause" from the upcoming album Artpop, is a facial close-up of the star made up in colorful face paint, reminiscent of some abstract expressionist painting. In true Gaga style, she didn't stop with the cover. The makeup was replicated in the song's video, along with several other theatrical face painted looks. Gaga then took the look from art to life. She has been sporting a more toned down version of the cover makeup out on the streets as she promotes the single. And last but not least - her Video Music Awards performance, where she magically applied the face paint makeup mid performance!
