Lady Gaga posed in a Simone Rocha design, an up-and-coming British designer, for “Elle” UK’s January 2012 issue. The entertainer wore a sheer mint green mini-dress and matching headwrap. It’s from the Spring 2012 collection. Inside is a full length image of the frock sans any lining, thankfully Gaga wasn’t too shy. She accessorized the frilly number with a translucent belt at the waist. It was a good selection because green is the perfect color for spring, and the dress was so fresh and light.

Lady Gaga has designed wristbands to assist in Japan’s earthquake relief efforts.  Written on the bands are: “We Pray for Japan” in both English and Japanese.  They retail for $5 each, but donors can choose to add any additional amount.  The earthquake and tsunami has produced much devastation, and the entertainer is looking to her fans to support this cause.   You can purchase the prayer bracelets here, all proceeds will go directly to the Japan relief efforts.

Lady Gaga covers the March 2011 issue of Vogue, and the first images have been released.  She appears in a gorgeous blush colored halter with loose draping and a plunging neckline from Haider Ackerman’s Spring 2011 collection.  A perfect pink bob, blond brows and deep plum red lipstick finish her cover worthy appearance shot by Mario Testino.  This cover is high-fashion mainly because Gaga is a chameleon with the ability to transform fashion, not vice-versa.

Lady Gaga returns as the face of MAC Viva Glam for 2011.  Sales from the Viva Glam lipstick goes to the MAC AIDS  Fund to help people living with HIV/AIDS.  Gaga’s new ad campaign has been revealed and we are privy to a softer side of the singing superstar.  It has an angelic quality, from the superb lighting, right down to her clasp of the pearls and diamonds in her hands; similar to how one would hold a rosary.  Doing good work to relieve suffering in society can take on that effect.  MAC’s lipstick for charity launched in 1994, and its 2010 campaign, featuring Cindy Lauper and Lady Gaga was the most successful ever.

Telephone – Philip Treacy telephone hat paired with a black Armani coat, flared trousers and towering heels.

Mini Mouse - Off one shoulder black latex body suit.

Harlequin – Black Marjan Pejoski Body suit with oversized black neck fuff.

Lady Gaga had eight wax figures made at Madame Tussauds Museum.  The figures were revealed today in eight different museums worldwide.  Here are three of the looks, the Telephone which was characterized by a Philip Treacy telephone hat and Giorgio Armani jacket.  Her Mini Mouse look had the perfectly sculpted mini mouse bow made from blond hair, and her Harlequin figure donned a full body suit with diamond patterns throughout.  They are all surprisingly lifelike, and perfect replicas of the superstar.

The stars are signing off of Twitter and Facebook to commemorate World AIDS Day on Wednesday, Decemeber 1st, a day was created to bring awareness to the disease.  They will only sign-on once the charity, Keep a Child Alive raises $1 million dollars; Keys has a longstanding relationship with this organization.  Proceeds raised will go to aid families affected by HIV/AIDS in Africa and India.  It’s all a part of the Digital Life Sacrifice campaign.  Donations are accepted via text and through the bar-code embedded within the ad campaign.  Alicia Keys, Lady Gaga, Kim Kardashian, Justin Timberlake, Jennifer Hudson and Swizz Beatz are among the celebrities taking this challenge.  So make sure you donate and tell your friends, if you want to get your favorite celebrities back online.  Giving up access to social media is a small price to pay when you consider the greater good.

Marc Jacobs and Lady Gaga cover the Fall 2010 issue of V Magazine.  Also featured are Liya Kebede and Andre Balazs among other prominent names in the annual New York issue.  Fashion photograher Mario Testino captured the images of these amazing talents on film.  If you had any doubt that this was the New York issue, a partially dressed Gaga with her own interpretation of Lady Liberty’s crown and torch should clue you in.  The cover is very artistic, bordering on genius.  If I were a betting woman, I would bet that Lady Gaga was, um, wearing a Marc Jacobs gown.  Marc Jacobs is the fashion designer with leading man good looks, and he gives us his best side profile as he sits on a television set that could have come straight out of the 1950′s. 

Model Liya Kebede and hotelier Andre Balazs are obviously channeling uber-chic Upper-East-Siders in their spread.  The two are dressed up to the nines for a shopping trip that included an apparent stop at Michael Kors’ boutique.  Testino’s tell tale sign that this was a scene from the streets of New York would be the trash bin on the corner with an empty pizza deliver box inside.  The spread includes other famous names like Chloe Sevigny, Marina Abramovic and Debbie Harry to name a few.  Nicola Formichetti styled this amazing photoshoot.
