Lady Gaga will premiere her new music video for her controversial song “Judas” during American Idol next week. The singer sat down with MSN Canada to talk about the controversial song – and the concept for the music video. She claims the the video is a metaphor about forgiveness.

Next week Lady Gaga will premiere a Federico Fellini-esque music video for her new single “Judas,” a song that has predictably rankled Catholic groups with its hard-edged appropriation of the biblical story of Jesus’ betrayer as a metaphor for falling for the wrong man. In the video, which she co-directed with Canadian choreographer Laurieann Gibson, Gaga will star as the prostitute Mary Magdalene leading a motorcycle gang of apostles on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem.

In a brief and slightly philosophical phone interview with MSN before her concert at the Bell Centre in Montreal on Monday, the singer insisted the video is an affirmation of faith, not a challenge to it. The subject of faith will also be a major theme on her third album, “Born This Way,” which she says is now finished and ready for its May 23rd release date, and her forthcoming tour to support it.

Here’s an excerpt of the interview from MSN:

How did your Catholic background inform the songwriting for that track and the album?

Well, I wouldn’t necessarily say that my schooling informed the songwriting on that record in particular. “Judas” is a metaphor and an analogy about forgiveness and betrayal and things that haunt you in your life and how I believe that it’s the darkness in your life that ultimately shines and illuminates the greater light that you have upon you.

Someone once said to me, “If you have no shadows then you’re not standing in the light.” So the song is about washing the feet of both good and evil and understanding and forgiving the demons from your past in order to move into the greatness of your future. I just like really aggressive metaphors — harder, thicker, darker — and my fans do as well. So it is a very challenging and aggressive metaphor, but it is a metaphor.

What’s the concept of the video?

Well, I want to allow the video to speak for itself but I will say that the theme of the video and the way that I wanted to aesthetically portray the story was as a motorcycle Fellini movie where the apostles are revolutionaries in a modern-day Jerusalem. And I play Mary Magdalene leading them into the town where we meet Jesus and I will leave the rest for you to see. But it’s meant more to celebrate faith than it is to challenge it.

I’m about over Lady Gaga.  In case you were wondering.

Will.i.am sat down with Elle Magazine in a very revealing interview. He talks about everything from sex – to dating – to never meeting his father. In an excerpt from the interview, he talks about how his biggest pet peeves in women are 1) women who have condoms at their house, 2) women who don’t dry their sinks when they’re done using them and 3) women who don’t clean themselves with baby wipes. If you know a woman who meets this criteria – she may be in luck!

On Will’s sex life:

To me, sex isn’t like an extracurricular activity that you do because you’re [feeling amorous]. Because I was raised around girls, I think I’ve adopted that perspective on sex. When you’re with somebody and you love them, then you’re going to do it and you’re going to do it a lot. On tour, the band started calling me G. S., for the Good Samaritan.

On his father, whom he’s never met:

I asked my mother about it once, and she said, “Willie, can I ask you a question? Are you happy with your perspective on the world? Are you proud that you’re tenacious and driven? Are you happy how me and your uncles have raised you?” I was like, “Yeah.” She said, “Then you shouldn’t feel like you’re missing anything. I am your daddy. I protected you, and the proof is your happiness with who you are right now.”

This part of the interview is just too good to miss any of it, so here you go:

ELLE: If you walked into a woman’s house, what one item would convince you that you weren’t compatible?

W: If she had condoms in her house, that would just f*ckin’ throw me off. That’s just tacky.

ELLE: Well, okay, I could see if she had a candy bowl full of them on the coffee table. But if she’s got a few in a drawer, wouldn’t that simply suggest she’s health-conscious?

W: I just think, like, if you’re into someone and you guys get to that level, then that’s something you should converse about together and say, “Hey, maybe we should get some.” Another pet peeve is wet sinks.

ELLE: Wet sinks?

W: Yeah, like a wet sink. You don’t wipe the sink after you use it? Dry it off! And if she’s got only dry toilet paper and no baby wipes next to the toilet. You ain’t got no baby wipes?

ELLE: I’ve heard about this particular deal breaker before. Why is that a big deal to you?

W: Here’s proof on why people should have baby wipes. Get some chocolate, wipe it on a wooden floor, and then try to get it up with some dry towels. You’re going to get chocolate in the cracks. That’s why you gotta get them baby wipes.

I was with Will until the wet sink thing. Wet sinks? Really? That’s a deal breaker?

And I get the baby wipe thing… I mean it couldn’t hurt. But he takes it one step further with his whole chocolate on the floor scenario. GROSS.

What do you think of her red dress? It’s awfully matronly.

Christina Aguilera stopped by the ‘Ellen Degeneres Show’ and opened up about her now-famous Super Bowl performance in an interview that will air today.

She said, “I had been singing that song my entire life.  I was the youngest anthem singer in my hometown of Pittsburgh, PA.  I sang for the “Steelers” when I was this big (as a child.)  I think 7 or 8 years old. I would sing for them. I think had a moment where I was at the “Super bowl” at 30 years old.  I took in the moment a little bit too much. Shoot me for appreciating the moment but here I am at the “Super bowl”…singing for a team and in front of the world. And remembering what it was like to be that young and look where I made it now.  And then it was like, oh.  That night I knew, I just made myself a Trivial Pursuit question…In 2011 what female singer, ya know, flubbed the lyrics.  It’s just insane. But I have a really good laugh about it and you get over things.  You get back up again and you just prove to yourself and to everyone you that much stronger.”

Gotta feel for the girl. I can’t image the pressure of singing the National Anthem in front of millions of people. It’s bad enough to mess it up – but even worse to be crucified in public for it!
