UPDATE: The tragedy of the greatest music video the world will never see

Earlier I posted about Lady Gaga refusing to let Weird Al parody her song and thus deprive us of possibly the greatest music video of all time. A shrewd piece of PR damage control has suddenly turned it all around.


You can read about on Al's blog but the short version seems to be:

• Al post song on YouTube and writes blog entry
• Internet watches/reads and starts kicking up a fuss
• Gaga's PR monsters release a statement saying their Mother Monster knew nothing about this
• Manager takes blame saying that it was him saying no and Gaga never knew
• Gaga gives green like to song
• Video know has a lot to live up to
