Lady Gaga Will Perform For The First Time On the 'Late Show'

Lady Gaga isn't quite a stranger to the Late Show with David Letterman, on which the starlet has appeared numerous times. Mother Monster's first appearance on the popular late-night TV show was on May 23, 2011 in an interview segment.
Gaga is, reportedly, set to perform her current single "G.U.Y," lifted from her critically underrated ARTPOP disc, on the show, marking her first-ever performance. Can you believe it?
The 28-year-old is also currently in the midst of performing seven sold-out shows at the Roseland Ballroom in New York City. The show, titled Lady Gaga Live At Roseland Ballroom, is a landmark occasion. She will be the last performer to ever grace that iconic stage before it closes its doors forever.
The Late Show with David Letterman is rated TV-PG, but the press release, humorously, reads: Rating may change on day of broadcast due to specific subject matter.
If Gaga's "G.U.Y" music video is any indication, that rating might become a blaring R. In fact, it wasn't so much a video as a film, documenting the ravages of the music industry. The 11-minute clip (yes, 11 minutes) opens upon a devastating scene, as men in clean-cut suites are grabbing for money and trampling over the winged-Gaga. She is left to her own devices, crumpled and forlorn by the wayside. The men simply move on up the hill to the next big pop phenomenon. Unbeknownst the them, she has a vengeful plan. Later on, she enlists some Housewives to take down the man in as gruesome way possible.
It's tragically beautiful, Little Monsters!
