Lady Gaga to Drop First Single From New Album in October

Lady Gaga announced that she will be dropping the first single from her forthcoming seventh studio album in October.

Gaga who arrived in Venice over the weekend ahead of the premiere of “Joker :Folie et Deux” teased the news in a new Instagram post. She posted a photo of her Venice schedule for the week. For October, Gaga marked “XX October: LG7 first single,” which likely means the album is due late this year or early 2025.

The new song follows her recent surprise single with Bruno Mars, “Die With a Smile.”

While little information about her new album has emerged, Gaga has been hard at work for the album for several months, having teased numerous posts of her in the studio.

A rep tells Variety that “Die With a Smile” will not be included on the new album, but Gaga said in the press materials that accompanied the song: “I was finishing up my own album in Malibu and one night after a long day he asked me to come to his studio to hear something he was working on. It was around midnight when I got there and I was blown away when I heard what he had started making. We stayed up all night and finished writing and recording the song.”
