The ‘Stupid star’ hitmaker will front the campaign for Voce Viva, which is due to launch this September.
Valentino creative director, Pierpaolo Piccioli says in a statement, “Lady Gaga means freedom, self-consciousness, pure heart. Her participation in this campaign elevates the symbolic power of the project to the highest level. She is the icon of a generation.”

“Her message of freedom, passion for art, self-consciousness and equality is the same [as what] our Valentino community stands for. I am so proud for having her,” Pierpaolo adds.
The new scent was conceptualised by Pierpaolo and the Valentino Beauty Team at L'Oréal. The collaboration with Lady Gaga comes after the 34-year-old singer insisted she wants to help young people to feel beautiful without needing to be perfect in any type of physical way.
“Even though I might wear skimpy outfits sometimes and I'm sitting here with no pants on with my big shoes, my definition of beauty has always been very against the grain. I just dressed like how I felt like dressing today, how I wanted to do my hair, how I wanted my makeup to look,” says Lady Gaga.
