    What — and who — are you most looking forward to watching on the big screen this fall?

    Fandango posted the results of a survey, asking moviegoers about certain upcoming films, stars, and partnerships.

    “Harry Potter” fans pushed “Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald” to No. 1 on the “Most Anticipated Movies” list. Fans are also curious to see how Lady Gaga does acting opposite Bradley Cooper in “A Star Is Born.” And fans are eager to see Rami Malek as Queen frontman Freddie Mercury in “Bohemian Rhapsody.”

    It’s not clear how Fandango went about the polling, or how they came up with these options. They may have specifically suggested the five choices in each category and asked fans to pick one or rank the list. If they didn’t suggest anything, and fans came up with these choices on their own — or from much a much longer list of options — then it’s more impressive to make this cut than if these were the only choices.

  • Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper’s ‘A Star Is Born’ Remake Pushed Back Five Months

    It’s going to be a later arrival than expected for Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper‘s upcoming remake of Hollywood classic “A Star Is Born“: The flick has been pushed from its planned May 2018 release date to October 2018.

    There was no official reason given for the five-month delay, which swaps the film’s original May 18, 2018 bow with the new choice of October 5, 2018. But Variety thinks it may be to better position the flick for an awards season push. Still, it’s a puzzling move, especially since the movie’s very first planned release date was slated for September 2018, before studio Warner Bros. shuffled the schedule and moved it up to May.

    Whatever the reasoning behind the switcheroo, “A Star Is Born” is certainly expected to make a big splash, thanks to its impressive pedigree: It marks the major movie debut of Gaga — who will be billed by her real name, Stefani Germanotta — as well as the directorial debut of Cooper. It’s also the third time the film will be rebooted: The original version debuted way back in 1937, starring Janet Gaynor and Fredric March as an aspiring actress and aging film star, respectively, who embark on a romance as their careers spin in opposite trajectories. The film was remade in 1954 with Judy Garland and James Mason, and again in 1976 with Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson, that time exploring the music industry.

    Gaga and Cooper’s version will also be music-centric, with the songstress playing Ally, an up-and-coming singer whose relationship with fading country legend Jackson Maine (Cooper) turns her into a superstar. Gaga wrote several original songs for the film.

    “A Star Is Born” is now slated for release on October 5, 2018.

  • First Look at Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper in ‘A Star is Born’ Remake

    2017 Coachella Valley Music And Arts Festival - Weekend 1 - Day 2Lady Gaga is going a little bit country for “A Star Is Born.”

    The singer is starring in a remake of the classic movie (which has already been made three times previously) opposite Bradley Cooper, who is directing. The first image from the film, which is in production now, shows Stefani Germanotta (Lady Gaga’s real name) singing into a microphone with Cooper playing guitar next to her.

    The movie also has an official synopsis:

    Cooper plays Jackson Maine, a country music star who is on the brink of decline when he discovers a talented unknown named Ally (Germanotta). As the two begin a passionate love affair, Jack coaxes Ally into the spotlight, catapulting her to stardom. But as Ally’s career quickly eclipses his own, Jack finds it increasingly hard to handle his fading glory.

    “A Star Is Born” was previously made in 1937, 1954, and 1976, the last version starring Kris Kristofferson and Barbra Streisand.

    Germanotta and Cooper filmed some concert scenes at the Coachella music festival, and festivalgoers were used as extras. She has written and recorded several original songs for the movie.

    “A Star Is Born” is slated to hit theaters Sept. 28, 2018.

  • Lady Gaga Follows Up Super Bowl Performance With World Tour Announcement

    AMFOOT-NFL-SUPERBOWL-HALFTIMELady Gaga’s high-flying, drone-packed Super Bowl halftime show was just one treat for fans on Sunday.

    Shortly after her performance, the singer revealed that she is soon to embark on her latest world tour. Called “Joanne” like her most recent album, which was released in October, the tour will kick off Aug. 1 in Vancouver, British Columbia. Her website currently shows the tour running through Dec. 14.

  • Lady Gaga to Play Donatella Versace in ‘American Crime Story’ Season 3: Report

    Lady Gaga is getting the role she was practically born to play: Donatella Versace.

    Sources tell “American Horror Story.”

    In fact, at Entertainment Weekly’s recent PopFest, a panel moderator suggested the singer for the role, and a grinning Murphy replied “Ya think?”

    Lady Gaga has long ties to Versace — she starred the fashion house’s 2014 Spring ad campaign. She also paid tribute to her friendship with Donatella Versace in a song on her 2013 album “Artpop.”

    The Versace murder storyline is based on Maureen Orth’s book, “Vulgar Favors: Andrew Cunanan, Gianni Versace, and the Largest Failed Manhunt in U.S. History.” Meanwhile, season 2 will focus on the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.

  • Watch Lady Gaga Hijack ‘The Late Late Show with James Corden’

    Saturday Night Live - Season 42“Late Late Show” episode.

    When it came time for Corden to come out an deliver his opening monologue, Lady Gaga took the stage instead. Stealing the host’s thunder and calling herself “Lady Haha,” she started in on the usual topical jokes. Yet, she only got through a few before a pants-less Corden ran onstage to reclaim his show.

    The two staged a faux argument over her supposed hijacking, but they quickly reached a compromise that viewers’ loved: Gaga got to stay as part of the band. Naturally, she didn’t have to hide away — she performed one of the singles from her new album, “Joanne,” and interacted with guests.
    Another highlight of the show was Lady Gaga’s “Carpool Karaoke” segment. Between that and her unexpected appearance, the audience got a healthy dose of Gaga.
    “The Late Late Show with James Corden” airs weeknights at 12:37 a.m. ET on CBS.

  • Lady Gaga’s ‘Carpool Karaoke’ Date Is Set, So Get Ready

    Tony Bennett 90th Birthday - Red CarpetDrop the poker face and get excited, Little Monsters! We’ll soon see “Late Late Show” host James Corden.

    The singer-slash-actress is slated to appear in an upcoming “Carpool Karaoke” segment on the late-night talk show, and the air date has finally been announced. Fortunately, we don’t have to wait long to catch Gaga singing along with Corden; the Mother Monster-starring segment will be included in the Oct. 25 episode.

    “Carpool Karaoke” has become massively popular since 2015, and Lady Gaga’s appearance will definitely be one to watch. The pop icon and “American Horror Story” star just dropped her fifth studio album, so she has new tunes she could belt out and numerous earlier hits to revisit. Whatever she sings, we can count on her spectacular talent, plus Corden’s enthusiastic vocals as a bonus.

    “The Late Late Show with James Corden” airs weeknights at 12:37 a.m. ET on CBS. If that’s too late for you, you can find it later on YouTube.

This will mark Gaga’s third time as the “SNL” musical guest, with her last appearance on the program occurring back in 2013, when she was also the host.

  • Lady Gaga Confirms Super Bowl LI Halftime Show Performance

    Lady Gaga Sings The National Anthem At Super Bowl 50Adele may not be performing at the Super Bowl Halftime Show in February, but another international superstar will be taking the stage instead: Lady Gaga just revealed that she’ll be headlining the performance.

    Gaga, who many had speculated would be performing on the NFL’s biggest night, made the announcement on Twitter on Thursday night, confirming to her Little Monsters that “The rumors are true.”


    “This year the SUPER BOWL goes GAGA!,” the singer wrote. She was joined in her excitement by the NFL itself, which used its own Twitter account to tout Gaga’s performance.


    “Can’t wait. Let’s do this!” the NFL wrote in reply to the singer’s Tweet. It later posted a video mashing up excited players’ touchdown dances and sideline cheers with Gaga’s “Perfect Illusion” video.

    Gaga previously performed at the Super Bowl just this year, where she sang the National Anthem before the big game. Music isn’t the only way the singer has been taking over our televisions, thanks to her Golden Globe-winning performance on “American Horror Story,” which she starred on during last year’s “Hotel” season. She’s also appearing on the current “Roanoke” season, too.

    The Super Bowl will take place in Houston on Sunday, February 5, 2017. See you there, Little Monsters.
