The video for Edge of Glory was just unveiled on last night’s So You Think You Can Dance in the US. Unfortunately, the video is absolutely nothing that it was intended to be. In a way though (aside from the rather pathetic 80s Madonna comparisons that have cropped up once again), this might have actually worked for the better. The reason that the track itself did so well is down to the raw simplicity of the production values and the video (albeit not the original plan) definitely echoes that. It sees Gaga in streetwalker couture heels (what is new there?), thrusting and grinding outside a New York apartment with her saxophonist playing on the stairs.
From various KARLISMYUNKLE sources, the original concept of the video included the mermaid suit and tank under the Brooklyn Bridge that she wore on French TV earlier this week, various dancers, at least one male protagonist and a set of Joseph Kahn worthy production values. This was all axed mid-production and the entire cast and crew sent home. The outcome is a piece of rushed content directed by the Haus of Gaga. As rightly stated by Bradley Stern over at MuuMuse, it is definitely Gaga’s Gimme More video moment, except with more Versace.
This isn’t the last that we will hear of the drama surrounding Kahn and Gaga’s falling out and due to rather epic levels of unprofessionalism on Twitter from one of her primary collaborators revealing details and expressing her “disappointment” and preference for the Google Chrome commercial over the video, the floodgates are starting to open.

The genius behind this video is undoubtedly the Rebecca Black cameo. Such a smart marketing move. Both Katy Perry and Black deserve major kudos, Perry for making it happen, and Black because of the way that media and the public treated her during the Fri-pocalypse. The clip also features Glee’s Kevin McHale, Darren Criss, Friday 13th and The Goonies star Corey Feldman and Debbie Gibson, and and an uncredited actor playing the jock Steve Johnson. Full video under the cut.
UPDATED: Anonymous babe is actually Richie Nuzzolese. Gratuitous image below.
