“Lady GaGa who has has sold over ten million albums and over thirty-five million singles worldwide is a big name,” Phillips reports. “So is Apple.”
Phillips writes, “Putting the two together, whether you like it or not, is brilliant… Time will tell. for now, Apple is keeping a poker face about the whole Apple iPhone 4G — Lady Gaga connection.”

MacDailyNews Take: We tried to post this with straight faces, but we failed. This is a RUMOR and one we wouldn’t put too much stock in.
[Thanks to MacDailyNews Readers too numerous to mention individually for the heads up.]
Fantastic, love Lady Gaga and her catchy electro-pop; she certainly knows how to catch the eye of the press and keep them interested too.
brilliant? arrogant and tasteless maybe…
This is not brilliant.
This is dumb.
One need only look at the vast majority of iPhone purchasers and I’m thinking most have never heard of GaGa and if they have, they wish they hadn’t.
Let’s hope this rumor is just another dumb rumor.
Lady GaGa. Give me a break.
Now if they hired ChrissyOne… we might have something.
10 million records…
hmmm…
I could of course be very wrong.
What? Justin Bieber wasn’t available?
Guess Apple’s choosing “artists” whos careers last only as long as the lestest version of any given technology.
Is Apple really hurting with the tasteless, female/gay under 15 market? If so, I bet this shank should be able to help!
What’s your problem with Al Franken, kid? Just had to get a snide political comment about someone who is obviously 100% Not a candidate for Apple spokesman? Take it to your politcial sites. You expected a standing ovation, a parade?
I can no longer enjoy U2, or at least Bono since his defection from Apple.
I despise Lady Gaga. Better not happen.
This would make zero sense to me personally, but it is labeled a rumor. Of dubious authenticity, I suspect as well. OTOH, the politics of ambiguity and sexual orientation could play well for some.
@ Varth Dader: LMAO. Indeed, shebeugly.
Gaga is a talentless hack, I doubt Apple would put her in any comercials.
@Aldebaran (who listed all of Lady GooGoo’s “accolades” above)
Yep! That’s just how effed-up the music industry is!
Thank the universe for Pandora. for $34 a year, I can listen to whatever the acheedoublehockeysticks I want–with no commercials or soon to be unemployed disc jokeys–yes that’s “jokeys” not joCkeys.
The name might get you in the door, but the product has to produce good results.
It’s advertising, Fuget About It.
Talent FAIL
Good. Now I can get all my Mac news from Perez Hilton.
Doesn’t Lady Gaga have a song ‘Telephone’?
Appropriate, no?
I’m sick of the jerk who forgot his wife’s anniversary & orders flowers and then picks out a stray from the animal shelter all while talking to his down-low gay bud on the line…. how boring!
What has happened to Apple’s advertising? Lately it sux! What happened to Mac & PC guys??? What happened to the fantastic iPod commercials?
I love Apple, but lately it’s boring, boring, boring! and they whine in their ads now, just like AT&T;does…
F**K ALL THE LADY GAGA HATERS HERE! U all r 2 freaking old to understand the music of this generation. U guys r the talentless losers. I don’t c any of u expressing yourselves in a creative musical way & selling millions of albums while ur at it. Get a life & STFU!
Now go back & use ur virus infected windows computers, u fake ass Mac users!
