Up until the release of "Telephone," Lady Gaga had been trying to one-up herself visually from music video to music video. She quickly went from producing simple party-music videos like the one she released back in 2008 for "Just Dance" to creating spectacles and feasts for the eyes thanks to over-the-top clips like "Bad Romance" and her cartoon-like video for "Telephone."
Nominated for three 2010 MTV Video Music Awards, including Video of the Year, where it will face off against "Bad Romance," "Telephone" is nearly 10 minutes of fashion, Gaga, Beyoncé, dancing and murder. Directed by iconic music video helmer Jonas Åkerlund, Gaga took fans for a ride and amped them up with clues as to what they might expect from the video.
