Lady Gaga tells fan asking about new music ‘don’t worry’

Lady Gaga replied ‘don’t worry’ to a fan asking her not to make listeners wait long for more albums on Monday, October 19, in the comments on a TikTok video promoting a Haus Labs brush set. The brief response drew attention from fans, but Gaga did not name a project or say when any music might be released.

Billboard reported that the video showed Gaga demonstrating the brushes as Wham!’s ‘Last Christmas’ played. A fan wrote, ‘Gaga please don’t make us wait long for albums!!!’ and said the waits between her records seemed to be getting longer. Gaga answered, ‘don’t worry,’ followed by two heart emojis.

What Gaga’s reply says about another album

Billboard said it could not reach a spokesperson for Gaga for comment on when fans might hear new music. Without a further statement from Gaga, the two-word answer leaves the timing and form of any release unclear.

The music behind fans’ expectations

The exchange comes after Mayhem, which Billboard said arrived last year following a nearly five-year gap after 2020’s Chromatica. Billboard identified ‘Disease,’ ‘Abracadabra’ and ‘The Dead Dance’ as Mayhem singles, and reported that Gaga later teamed with Doechii on ‘Runway’ for The Devil Wears Prada 2 soundtrack. Her response to the fan therefore follows other releases, even as it gives no timetable for what comes next.

Gaga also finished her global Mayhem Ball tour in April, according to Billboard. The publication said the tour reached five continents and grossed nearly $420 million, placing it among the 10 highest-grossing tours by a woman in its Boxscore history. Those figures help explain the scale of the activity that preceded the fan’s request for another album; Gaga’s comment offered no further detail about her plans.
