Singles

[edit]

The proposed "singles" of this album are "Lady Gaga... and Lord Gaga", "The Dark Knight Is Confused", "Adorable", "On The Jersey Shore", "Glitter Puke", "Why Are You Filming Me?", and "Bieber Fever". These songs are parodies of pop culture (Lady Gaga, The Dark Knight, Justin Bieber, Kesha, etc.) and have got the most hits on YouTube. The most popular of them all is the TiK ToK parody "Glitter Puke", which is about Kesha's intervention after drinking to much the previous night. The video has over 22,000,000 hits as of June 2010.

Trivia

[edit]
  • Lady Gaga is the first artist to have two songs parodied (Bad Romance and Telephone), followed later by Justin Bieber (Baby and One Time, presumably)
