I’m one of those people who feels very indifferent to Lady GaGa, but from your comments there’s a strong love/hate divide.

Lucas alerted me to Lady GaGa’s new video “Bad Romance”, and I’ll admit I was in a trance watching her video.

She’s electrifying, energetic and totally captivating.

I love the close up beauty shots of her which allow me to see that under all those crazy costumes, hats and make-up lies a pretty girl.

In the few shots we see of GaGa actually clothed, she rockin 2 pieces from Alexander McQueen’s Spring 2010 collection.

In the opening sequence she dons a long sleeved gold metallic mini dress with futuristic shades.

At the 3.30 mark in the video, GaGa bravely walks in those staggering armadillo heels whilst wearing a beaded turtle neck dress paired with the runway pants.

From the way she’s walking it looks like you have to trot like a show pony to be actually able to walk in these heels.

At another point in the video GaGa is seen dancing around in Agent Provocateurs “Love” demi bra and panties teamed with a menacing pair of black Alexander McQueen Spring 2010 dragon heels.

She also wears these heels in white paired with matching white underwear.

“Bad Romance” is more like a fashion video than a music video.

I think this maybe the only chance we get to see the more adventurous pieces from the runway, unless they are in editorials.

I hope I’m wrong.

As she is firmly in the spotlight Cheryl Cole is launching a solo career, but don’t worry she’s not splitting from Girls Aloud.

With a new career comes a stylish new image, to set singing and being a judge on the X Factor apart.

Out go the cute 3.1 Phillip Lim playsuits and in comes Balmain and Alexander McQueen.

I hate to say that the Balmain was totally predictable, but in she does look fabulous in the bejeweled dress we’ve seen on Selita Ebanks and LaToya Luckett.

In one promotional picture she’s wearing an Alexander McQueen asymmetric-striped sweater dress which can be purchased from Net-A-Porter international for £825/€987,90, or the Net-A-Porter US site for $1,655.

Her new single is called “Fight For This Love” and her upcoming album “3 Words” (guessing they are ‘I Love You’) will no doubt be a huge success, as her management have picked the right time to push her out on her own.

Cheryl’s single cover (left) and album cover (right) was shot by one of the fashion world’s most respected photographers, Nick Knight.

I love album cover which shows her wearing an incredible sculptured net headpiece with oversized rose corsages.

The single which appears to target the relationship troubles she had with husband Ashley, will be released on October 19th, but if you want to have a listen click here.

For those who didn’t know WHITNEY’S BACK.

Yesterday her Whitney Houston’s highly-anticipated new album, “I Look To You” when on sale, and she made an appearance on “Good Morning America”.

This weekend singer was spotted leaving her trailer on her way to the set of her latest video shoot in New York.

She appears to have turned back the clock about 20 years, sporting a curly do whilst wearing the sequined version of the Proenza Schouler Pre-Fall 2009 dress we also saw Amber Valletta wear to the Women In Film’s 2009 Crystal and Lucy Awards.

The singer paired her dress with Sigerson Morrison boots and a huge smile.

Whitney graces the cover of Ebony Magazine’s October 2009 issue. She opens up about shedding her excess baggage and her rise and fall in the industry.

On her life journey and battles: “I shed a lot of stuff, a lot of unnecessary weight in the last three or four years. I left a lot of old luggage behind, and when I did, the blessings just started pouring on me, and the light in my spirit started to lift again.”

I love Balmain. As a result I’m obsessed with anything with shoulder pads.

Thankfully the high street have embraced the bold shoulder to fuel my current addition.

I have Zara’s Balmain-esqe blazer, a few H&M’s Balmain-esqe dresses, and a few Topshop padded tops.

You would think that because of my love for Balmain, I would go gaga over Madonna wearing a Balmain Fall 2009 bejeweled dress in the video for her new single “Celebration”.

I didn’t, because frankly Madonna bores me and she has done for a long while.

The last single of hers I liked was ‘Human Nature’, and that was back in 1995.

It was a smart move for her to wear a Balmain dress to cause a stir in the fashion world as Balmain is so hot right now, but I still don’t like it on her.

Someone young and fresh like Rihanna would have been better suited to wear this dress.

Madonna’s dress is paired with Christian Louboutin Supre Fifre over-the-knee corset boots, which are the same boots Lindsay Lohan wears on the cover of the September 2009 edition of Elle UK.

I’m sure many of you will think she looks fierce, but I’m so numb to her.

Mexican singer Paulina Rubio has received many Billboard Latin Music Awards and has sold over 20 million albums worldwide. She is known as “The Golden Girl”, “La Chica Dorada”, and “Queen Of Latin Pop.”

Currently she’s releasing a new album after a 2 year break called “Gran City Pop” with the first single called “Causa y Efecto”.

Iona from Barcelona brought to my attention that sexy singer wore my favourite Balmain Fall 2009 one-sleeved blue sequined dress in the “Causa y Efecto” video, with a matching pair of blue sunglasses.

The video is not what I would expect from a Latin video, as it very much has a rock element with the band and Paulina’s rock chick attitude as she strums on a guitar.

Love it.

This stunning dress is available to pre-order from Luisa via Roma for an eye-popping €10,773.

Over the holiday period you may have seen that Beyonce’s new video Diva was premiered.

What you may have also noticed is that most of her wardrobe in the video was created by the futuristic designer Gareth Pugh.

Beyonce first surprised us all wearing Gareth Pugh when she performed at MTV’s EMAs last month. She gained a lot of kudos for her 2 looks that night, so it is not surprise that Beyonce and her dancers performed in a wide selection of Gareth Pugh pieces from his Fall 2008 and Spring 2009 collection for her new video.

Her looks include towering black and white platforms, a plastic appliqué waterfall jacket, a leather fencing jacket with contrasting armour plates on each arm.

What I want to know is how does she dance in such structured ensembles?
