The new music video by the American pop music singer and dancer, Lady Gaga, performing 'Alejandro', the third single from her second studio album, "The Fame Monster," is on-line and is sizzling. The fan interest is, as expected, off the planet. See the video.

MTV says, "Lady Gaga's latest video opus, "Alejandro," is a dizzying array of provocative imagery." It is being called a "S&M Fetish Frenzy."

I am reminded of the expressionistic risque scenes of the Kit Kat Klub in the movie "Cabaret," which gives a peek at Bohemian Berlin during the last days of the Weimar Republic, in the early 1930s, with the Nazis lurking nearby, waiting to take over. Lady Gaga's performance in the video reminds me of the character Sally Bowles, whom is based on Christopher Isherwood's The Berlin Stories. The young male and female dancers in Lady Gaga's video do seem Germanic and sort of an interpretation of Aryan Youth gone wild.
