Lady Gaga will release The Fame Monster on 23 November, a two-disc re-package of her 4 million-selling album The Fame. It will feature the entire breakthrough album – including the hit singles Just Dance, Poker Face, Paparazzi and LoveGame – alongside eight entirely new songs, including the new RedOne-produced single Bad Romance, which is available to download now.
Amongst the other new songs on the album is a duet with superstar Beyoncé, the Rodney Jerkins-produced Telephone. The album also includes production work from Teddy Riley, Space Cowboy, Fernando Garibay, and Ron Fair. The eight new tracks are: Bad Romance, Alejandro, Monster, Speechless, Dance in the Dark, Telephone (with Beyoncé), So Happy I Could Die and Teeth.
