Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars have joined forces in their latest
collaboration, Die With a Smile, which was released on August 16. The
music video takes fans on a nostalgic journey, channelling the classic style of
Dolly Parton and Porter Wagoner. Set against the backdrop of a 1960s musical
variety show, Gaga and Mars wear matching red-and-blue outfits that feel right
at home on the Grand Ole Opry stage. With Mars strumming the guitar and Gaga at
the piano, her blonde hair teased to perfection and a cigarette hanging from
her lips, the duo passionately deliver their existential new track.
As a bonus treat for fans, Die With a Smile was performed
live for the first time at Bruno Mars’ concert in Los Angeles on August 15,
just a day before the official release. The song’s announcement came less than
12 hours before it dropped, with Gaga teasing it on Instagram, hinting at her
upcoming seventh album. This collaboration adds another layer of excitement for
fans eagerly awaiting new music from both artistes.
