Lady Gaga is continuing to send fans spiraling with cryptic messages on Instagram — and no, she doesn’t care to elaborate.
The superstar has been posting one new message every day since she first piqued people’s interest on Sept. 20 by sharing a note reading “I’m ready for my interview,” meaning there’s two more to obsess over. Starting with Sept. 21, Gaga uploaded a black tile with white lettering that says, “Don’t tell me what to wear.”
One day after that, the 13-time Grammy winner shared a green tile bearing the message, “No duct tape, no mission.” This time, the post came with an audio snippet featuring a mellow chord progression on acoustic guitar.
Gaga is both gearing up for the premiere of Folie à Deux — in which she stars as Harley Quinn opposite Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker — and the release of her seventh studio album, which she recently confirmed is arriving in February. That’s left fans confused as to whether her string of Instagram posts pertains to the film or new music, but the “Rain on Me” singer isn’t giving them answers just yet.
When asked about the matter during an on-camera interview with Entertainment Tonight posted Sunday (Sept. 22), Gaga froze up and smiled. “It’s a secret,” she said quietly. “That was a good question there — it stumped me.”
Fans can at least be sure that a new single from her upcoming album will drop in October, something Gaga revealed with a recent subtle Instagram post outlining her schedule for the next few weeks. The schedule also contained her appointments at Folie à Deux press junkets, including the Joker sequel’s world premiere at the Venice International Film Festival Sept. 4, which the vocalist attended with fiancé Michael Polansky on her arm.
At another recent Folie à Deux event, she hilariously passed out bags of popcorn ahead of an early screening in Los Angeles. “Enjoy the f–king show!” she cheers in a clip taken inside the theater, looking peak-Gaga in a whimsical dress and puffy platinum hair.
