Lady Gaga Confirms She Remembers ‘Telephone Part 2’

Lady Gaga and Beyoncé’s iconic, ten-minute-long music video for “Telephone” ends with a title card that is both ominous and, thus far, completely untrue: “To be continued.” But now … finally … after 14 years of waiting by the Beyhive and Little Monsters alike … Lady Gaga has officially confirmed she’d be interested in possibly making a sequel. In her Vanity Fair lie-detector test, released on February 19, Gaga claimed the video would be continued, when prompted. But when the moderator asked “when?” she admitted, “I don’t know,” adding “maybe” when asked if Bey would be in it. The lie detector confirmed the latter answer’s veracity. Vanity Fair then asked if the follow-up was “taking forever because of scheduling conflicts with Beyoncé?”

“No!” Gaga answered, truthfully. We’d posit that it’s a back-burner project. Both Gaga and Bey are aware of the hunger; Beyoncé even seemed to be teasing it during the promotion of Cowboy Carter. Still, that’s better than what Jo Calderone got. Gaga’s male alter ego, whom she used to promote her eternal banger “Yoü and I,” is dead. “This person is no longer with us,” Gaga informs the masses during the exam. If she’s willing to kill Jo Calderone, she’d kill “Telephone Part 2.” While it’s definitely not on the Mayhem track list, there’s always Beyoncé’s Act III.
