Did you just return from a 2-year Peace Corps stint in the deepest jungles of Borneo? If so, you’ve got a lot of catching up to do! Probably the most important thing that’s happened since you’ve been gone is that the remake of A Star Is Born starring Lady Gaga finally opened! I know, can you believe it? I never thought the blessed day would come either but it did. And boy did it come hard. And long. It was pretty much like a drawn out, Sting-like tantric orgasm only replace Sting with leather faced, gravel gargling Bradley Cooper. The Golden Globes are on Sunday and the film’s up for a gang of awards. So naturally, the marketing department is keen to boost the movie’s profile by installing a giant Billboard on Sunset Boulevard, identical to the one that appears in the movie of Gaga’s character, Ally. See, I told you this movie was a big fucking deal!
Behold, a slightly taller than 5 foot 2 Lady Gaga.
Yup, they’ve put up an Ally billboard outside the Chateau Marmont on the Sunset Strip. Same place it’s supposed to be in A STAR IS BORN, albeit a little lower. pic.twitter.com/oeBfwaQvBu

YouTuber Tyler Oakley was so excited he rushed down to commune with the 50 odd feet of Ally.

So, now that you’re caught up, there are some other things I need to tell you about that you might have missed. Do you have a few minutes? Remember Ariana Grande?
