"Judas" Music Video

On this episode of Chewing on Pearls, we continue our series celebrating 15 years of Born This Way! Join us as we discuss the aesthetically rich and biblically referential music video for Lady Gaga's "Judas," directed by Gaga in tandem with Laurieann Gibson. We journey to neo-Jerusalem with Jesus, Mary Magdalene, and their crew of motorcycle gang apostles, dissect the visual treatment's references, choreography, fashion, and beauty, and bear witness to what Gaga called a "cultural baptism"... all as she negotiates her relationship to criticism, romantic love, and her Catholic upbringing.
