Did Lady Gaga Fire her "Edge of Glory" Video Director?



Lady GaGa may have announced the premiere of The Edge Of Glory promo, but online reports claim Joseph Kahn has NOT directed the clip.

As we previously reported, GaGa confirmed via Twitter that the eagerly awaited video for her third Born This Way single will be released tomorrow (17th June) and was expected to be directed by Kahn.

However, speculation has started on Twitter that Lady G may have fired the prolific director, who has worked with the likes of Eminem and Britney Spears, after he denied directing the Judas singer's new video.

Kahn posted on his official Twitter account: "I did NOT direct Lady Gaga's "Edge of Glory" video. Lady Gaga did."

Gaga's creative director, Laurieann Gibson, was then asked by GaGa's Little Monsters to clear-up the reports, confirming that Kahn was no longer credited as the director of The Edge Of Glory promo.

Gibson tweeted: "sorry guys there was a slight turn of events on Set (sic)" before adding to another Twitter user who accused her of not speaking the truth: "listen u disrespectful f**k they had an issue on set I don't lie!!!!!"

GaGa's record label, Interscope, has since confirmed that Lady G's team, The Haus of GaGa, are named as the video's directors.

UPDATE: Sounds like some drama...

I have high expectations for this video. If it's not like Bad Romance/Paparazzi - I will be sad =(
bblosecontrol 16th-Jun-2011 04:11 pm (UTC)
Oh girl... prepare a bucket for your creys.
hahahey 16th-Jun-2011 04:13 pm (UTC)
It'll probably be Judas level, get ready for it.
phreshprince 16th-Jun-2011 04:14 pm (UTC)
Lower your expectations now or you will be disappointed.
Supposedly from the person at interscope it's really bad and you know how everyone was expecting a mermaid in the video? Well it's cut from the video. And she's bringing back the mole look in the video with the short hair with black and blonde (similar to what she wore in the MTV documentary)
So yeah don't get hyped up
luckynumber5 16th-Jun-2011 04:25 pm (UTC)
I have had no knowledge of even a theme... I like to be blind going into music videos. The mole nears to go away forever.


Such a shame, it's a great song =(
scheisse 16th-Jun-2011 04:25 pm (UTC)
Are you talking about Jeff? He didn't say it was bad. He said Judas was better and it's better when you're high.
scheisse 16th-Jun-2011 04:25 pm (UTC)
Lol, why would you even expect her to come close to two of her most iconic videos that are the reason she was propelled into worldwide super stardom? You're gonna have to wait a couple of years or more before we get another piece as epic as Bad Romance.
hi_im_niko 16th-Jun-2011 04:28 pm (UTC)
Why would she repeat herself tho?
etched 16th-Jun-2011 04:07 pm (UTC)
i really dont like laurieann at allllll
alessar 16th-Jun-2011 04:08 pm (UTC)
I want Sergio Campas, the guy who did the (probably) unofficial gay porn vampire video for Teeth, to do one.
lowlighter 16th-Jun-2011 04:18 pm (UTC)
YES! That would be awesome.

Well judas was a good video and GaGa directed, but I don't like the fact that she scared off the director with her ego
hpxstac 16th-Jun-2011 08:36 pm (UTC)
I'm sure she's probably very hard to work with on music videos. She's always come off as really controlling when it comes to her music and "art". I'm surprised at the fact that she's still trying to hire directors and at the fact that a few have them have stuck around.
yoyobrit 16th-Jun-2011 04:12 pm (UTC)
It's interesting to witness an ego exploding and fucking shit up. Why does fame go to people's heads?
hahahey 16th-Jun-2011 04:12 pm (UTC)
Sounds like Gaga didn't know how to step back on set, whatever I just want to see the video.
scheisse 16th-Jun-2011 04:13 pm (UTC)
...why should she have to step back? her music, her vision, and even though kahn is the director, he should learn to collaborate and not be all "my vision, not yours."
nuclearcouture 16th-Jun-2011 04:15 pm (UTC)
Ecept she hires a director for their vision, so hiring him only to tell him they're doing it her way is a waste of his time. She's a control freak and I don't blame him for quitting.
hahahey 16th-Jun-2011 04:18 pm (UTC)
Because she brought him in as a director, she should have let him do his job tbh.
hardy91 16th-Jun-2011 04:18 pm (UTC)
tbh I have never heard him have problems with anyone else, I really think gaga has problems with control yes you can have a vision but you hire a director to make that vision come to life

i love gaga but she seems like a control freak tbh
juanbomb 16th-Jun-2011 04:13 pm (UTC)
I don't co-direct. One canvas, one paintbrush. Respect the art.

Ouch.

He just snatched Gaga's wig.

This feeds my soul.
nastyposition 16th-Jun-2011 04:14 pm (UTC)
your icon is really not smart or funny tbh wtf?
juanbomb 16th-Jun-2011 04:55 pm (UTC)
It's not supposed to...
scheisse 16th-Jun-2011 04:16 pm (UTC)
Or he made himself look dumb. He should practice what she preach and respect her as well since the only reason the art is being created is because of Gaga's music.
jainypoo 16th-Jun-2011 04:18 pm (UTC)
I finally saw the clip your icon is from. I've been wondering all of this time haha
tjohnn 16th-Jun-2011 04:28 pm (UTC)
<3 this... finally someone speaks up about her .
nastyposition 16th-Jun-2011 04:13 pm (UTC)
ia with this.

It was still rude if she did really fire him like that. It's not like Gaga gives her 99 cents here and there, she knows exactly what she wants and wants exactly what she feels.. She should've just directed her own video like she did with Judas instead of wasting other people's times.
nuclearcouture 16th-Jun-2011 04:13 pm (UTC)
Gaga's making a mistake not trusting other people's creative input imo
scheisse 16th-Jun-2011 04:17 pm (UTC)
but her career is based on other people's creative input imo
nuclearcouture 16th-Jun-2011 04:18 pm (UTC)
It doesn't mean much when "other people's input" are the same team of yes men over and over. She would benefit from an outside perspective.
phreshprince 16th-Jun-2011 04:17 pm (UTC)
Ia. Yes it's her vision but sometimes her vision isn't good. It's always good to have imput and have 2 visions work TOGETHER.
anyone who says everything about her vision in m/v and other stuff are always good are just super fans who REACH
hahahey 16th-Jun-2011 04:18 pm (UTC)
iawtc, it'll be funny if the video ends up being a disaster.
nastyposition 16th-Jun-2011 04:15 pm (UTC)
oh stop. that fucking wig is making me hate her guts. WHAT. THE. FUCK.
scheisse 16th-Jun-2011 04:15 pm (UTC)
Supposedly Gaga didn't like a few things so she wanted to change them and he didn't like it so she said "bye". I guess Kahn is used to being able to walk on the set and control everything, but this is Gaga's creation, so whatever. I'm still upset 'cause he's an amazing director. :'(

Before Gibson said he was directing and it'd be "fishy", but now that he supposedly got fired, it's "no fishy."
turkish_popstar 16th-Jun-2011 04:26 pm (UTC)
Shit, I really wanted a mermaid in this. :(
scheisse 16th-Jun-2011 04:28 pm (UTC)
me too. everyone did.
whitewatergirl 16th-Jun-2011 04:15 pm (UTC)
Laurieann sounds like a trip. And not in a good way.
