Lady Gaga Reveals Joaquin Phoenix Has Listened to Entire 7th Album

Lady Gaga has revealed that Joaquin Phoenix is among the select few who have listened to her highly anticipated seventh studio album. During an interview while promoting her upcoming film ‘Joker: Folie à Deux’, Gaga casually mentioned, “Well, Joaquin's heard my whole seventh album, and you should just follow him around.” This light-hearted exchange occurred after host Richard Madeley noted that Phoenix had his headphones on upon entering the interview.

Gaga recently released her latest project, ‘Harlequin’, which she humorously dubbed “6.5” on promotional billboards. This album serves as a companion piece to Joker: Folie à Deux and features a mix of covers along with two original songs titled “Happy Mistake” and “Folie à Deux.”

The project was a collaboration with her fiancé, Michael Polansky, who co-executive produced the album alongside Gaga. Together, they co-wrote four tracks, including ‘Good Morning’, ‘Get Happy’, ‘Oh, When the Saints’, and ‘If My Friends Could See Me Now’.

In a recent interview, Gaga confirmed that her upcoming album, often referred to as “LG7,” is set for release early next year, accompanied by a new single in October. She attributed the idea for the new pop album to Polansky, saying, “Michael is the person who told me to make a new pop record. He was like, ‘Babe. I love you. You need to make pop music.’”

As anticipation builds, Gaga's fans are eager for new music, especially with the excitement surrounding her collaboration with Phoenix. His involvement not only enriches her film project but also adds to the buzz about her next musical chapter. 

With her unique blend of artistry and personal insights, Lady Gaga continues to capture the hearts of her audience while preparing for a remarkable return to the pop scene.
