On the Queen of Diet Coke

Drink me.

I love Lady Gaga just as much as the next little monster. Every girl knows what it’s like to wake up one morning and discover that her heart has been eaten. However, just because her ingenuity has reached the level of Diet Coke can hair rollers does not make her Mother Nature. (I’m talking to you, Ecorazzi and Ecouterre.)

Gaga’s video for ‘Telephone’ is a revolving advertisement both for brands she supports (i.e. her own Monster Heartbeats, tour sponsor Boost Mobile) and others. Still, I think her reason for curling her ‘cues with Coke cans, as explained by Gaga herself, is far cuter than politics or PR.

Of her Coke can fetish, Gaga admits, “My mom used to do that when I was a kid. If we didn’t have any rollers in the house, she’d slice up some Coke cans and then she’d heat them up and pin them in her hair.”

See, guys? It’s a family affair, complete with a cameo by her teenage sister Natali Germanotta. (She would be the brunette Gaga lookalike in the ‘Telephone’ video at the 2:47 point.) Go revel in the music – not the unintentional initiative.
