WOMAN.ca Is Not Impressed

To some people, Lady Gaga can do no wrong. The little Italian girl from around the block, she's come a long way from leg warmers and piano bars.

The pint-sized diva has built an empire around her larger than life personality. From cd's and stage shows, is it a wonder she's built a loyal following, inspiring clothing lines, make up and now of course, her own perfume.

But since it's Gaga, and she's never to be outdone, her scent won't be sugary sweet cotton candy, or a full bodied aroma with sophisticated notes. No... Gaga's scent, as reportedly rumoured, will be “blood and semen”. Gross, much?

On a recent Australian radio show, Lady Gaga finally revealed to hosts Kyle and Jackie O that she “wanted to extract the feeling and the scent of blood and semen from molecular structures” - confirming months of speculation.

She goes on to say, “[Blood and semen] is in the perfume but it doesn't smell like that – you just get the after feeling of sex from the semen, and the blood is primal.”

Okay... I feel like... what? The after feeling from sex, from a perfume? I don't know if that's what I want people to think when I walk past...it's like, a LIE!

Also interesting to note, buying this perfume means you get a little bit of Gaga in every drop – the blood she refers to is derived from her own haemoglobin: “It was taken out of my own blood sample,so it's a sense of having me on your skin.”

It's almost fitting – she's already under our skin, she may as well be on it too. I think I need a shower.  

Has she finally gone too far? Or is this just another, “Oh, Gaga...” moment?
