In the raunchy nine-minute film she is seen swallowing rosary beads while dressed as a nun in a red PVC habit, tying a lover to a bed and experimenting with bondage

Fans clamouring for the first glimpse of the much-hyped video, directed by legendary fashion photographer Steven Klein, crashed the site within minutes of its launch.

'She likes epics. It fits her personality,' said Klein in an interview with Rolling Stone Magazine.

'We combined dance, narrative and attributes of surrealism.

'The process was to express Lady Gaga's desire to reveal her heart and bear her soul.'

Manhandled: The singer pays tribute to her gay friends in the song Alejandro


Gaga removes her top in one scene but covers her modesty by keeping her back to the camera.

The 24-year-old New Yorker cavorts with a collection of semi-naked men in the shoot which pays homage to Madonna's Vogue.

The Paparazzi singer even wears an updated version of Madonna's cone bra which doubles up as guns.


Kinky: Gaga takes control in these raunchy scenes


In an interview with Larry King, she said recently that the single was 'a celebration of my love and appreciation for the gay community.

'My admiration of their bravery and their love for one another and their courage in their relationships.

'It's something I have yet to nail on the head with a man.'

Gaga added: In the video I'm pining for the love of my gay friends, but they just don't want me to be with them.'

The single is the third from her best selling album Fame Monster.

But one person who will not be buying her single anytime soon is rival popstar Katy Perry who twittered: 'Using blasphemy as entertainment is as cheap as a comedian telling a fart joke.'

Gaga is no stranger when it comes to controversial videos.

Three months ago in the video for Telephone she stripped naked for a lesbian kiss in a prison cell.

This week she was named outstanding music artist at the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation Awards.
