We reckon blue-haired Gaga rather suits the old-time vocals of this collaboration with legend Tony Bennett. The Lady Is A Tramp is taken from the crooner's latest LP, Duets II, which also features a song with Amy Winehouse (which we first told you about here).

Jarvis Cocker has a new book of lyrics out this week, entitled Mother, Brother, Lover. To celebrate its release, the Brit folk-pop-rocker made a little short film where he traces his steps back to where it all began: Cocker's secondary school in Sheffield, which he attended in the 1970s, and is coincidentally also where Pulp played their first gig. Ah, bless.

One of this/next year's most anticipated and controversial films is director Steve McQueen's dramatic tale of sexual addiction, Shame.Michael Fassbender stars as Brandon, a 30-something man living in New York who is unable to manage his sex life.
Head over to Nowness (HERE), where filmmaker Alison Chernick catches up with McQueen at the Toronto Film Festival for a deeply intimate insight into his creative mind. His thought on addiction and our systems of dysfunction as human beings make for a very worthy interview.

Chinese artist Ai Weiwei has just been named the most powerful person in the art world, according to a poll conducted by ArtReview magazine.
The mag said Weiwei, who was released in June after being detained for more than 80 days by Chinese authorities, was chosen by the panel because of his political activism, as well as his art work.
Damien Hirst is the only other artist to have previously topped the list, both in 2005 and 2008. Click here for more info on the power list. Here he is (below) talking about his Sunflower Seeds piece for Tate Modern's Turbine Hall.
