Lady Gaga Premieres New Video: G.U.Y.

A scene from the G.U.Y. music video

Lady Gaga premiered the video for her new single G.U.Y. tonight, with an exclusive two minute preview on NBC's Dateline, followed by the premiere of the full, seven minute short film on her VEVO channel.

The build up to the premiere took the Internet by storm, as Gaga was trending for hours on various media outlets and social networks such as Twitter, Google and CNN. Her legions of Little Monsters were clearly desperate for something new, especially because her last video was released in August, 2013. For someone who brought the music video back to total relevance, that's a long time ago.

She teased for days with stills from the video, and thirty minutes before the premiere, she tweeted this .gif image:

Minutes before the premiere, fan sites and music forums stopped working. One of Lady Gaga's biggest fan sites, GagaDaily, crashed under the weight of more than 2,200 over-excited fans who were waiting for the video together.
