Did you miss Lady Gaga's latest "thing"? No, she didn't make a dress out of live babies. (Yet...) But she did transform herself into a guy -- like, very, very convincingly and artfully -- for the cover of her "You & I" single. What being a guy has to do with schlepping all the way from New York to Nebraska on foot, I do not personally know, but I'm open to learning about new ways of doing things. And I'm also pretty sure that's not actually Lady Gaga in drag. It's her alter ego, Jo Calderone, who's an auto mechanic from Italy. And on this week's episode of "Bigger Than The Buzz" -- MTV's new weekly pop music show -- James Montgomery and I discuss this gender-bending transmogrification and debate the merits and relative hotness of a male Gaga versus Jo Calderone versus our own personal tastes and desires. And somehow John Travolta got involved. And James confirmed that the members of Evanescence are, in fact, the nicest people on the planet and that if their music is not featured in "Breaking Dawn: Part 1" then there probably will be blood. You NEED to watch!
And remember Steve URKEL! WHO could forget America's most beloved and endearingly adorkable next-door neighbor of the 1990s? Well he popped up in Cee Lo's new video, "Cry Baby," and you best believe we chatted about that. And then we discovered that Urkel's got a long-lost identical twin. And you'll never guess who it is.
