' Beyoncé and Lady Gaga first struck up a friendship when they appeared in a Thelma & Louise-themed music video to accompany Gaga's 2009 hit single 'Telephone'. We're glad to see this friendship going strong almost eight years later.
While Gaga thinks there was too much going on in the video, she doesn't have any issue with Beyoncé at all. Talking to Ryan Seacrest, she revealed that she and the 'Formation' singer respect each other and aren't competitive at all. “She's so kind. We get along,” she said (via Entertainment Weekly).
Lady Gaga is the leading celebrity on Forbes' list of the world's 100 most powerful women, beating Beyonce by several places. At number 11, the singer has fallen several places since last year, when she was placed at number 7 - but she is still the highest-ranked celebrity.
Gaga kisses another woman (Heather Cassils) in the prison's exercise yard before the two-minute mark, a moment that wasn't planned. “I wasn't instructed to kiss her,” Cassils has said.
12 years later the 'Telephone' music video has no sequel. The pair have never performed it together despite the song getting three VMA noms and winning the “Best Collaboration” award. Many have given up hope on ever seeing a 'Telephone' part two.
Stefani Joanne Angeline Germanotta, aka Lady Gaga, was 23 years old when the song debuted; Beyonce Giselle Knowles-Carter, aka Beyoncé, was 29 years old when this song was released.
It was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals, and won a ASCAP Pop Music Award and a BMI Award. Following the album's release, the song charted in many countries, including Australia, Canada, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Sweden and Hungary.
Well, actually, it's not that serious. Basically, Gaga accidentally scratched Grande in the eye as they were practicing choreography for the video, and what transpired afterwards is hilarious. Thankfully, we have it on tape.

But perhaps the most interesting revelation came when DeGeneres asked the 32-year-old Mother Monster about the first Hollywood heartthrob to get her pulse racing.

The 22-year-old joined Alan Carr on Chatty Man and explained how she was almost crushed by a moving stage during a concert in February 2015. "Opening night of my Honeymoon tour I almost died," Grande said. "For real, I'm not exaggerating. I usually exaggerate, but I'm not."
"I said to her, "OK, now everything that you care about while you sing, I want you to forget it and just sing. And by the way, while you're doing that, I'm going to dance in front of you," Gaga said. "And she was like, 'Oh my God. Oh my God, I can't, I can't.
"I had to bleach my hair and dye it red every other week for the first 4 years of playing Cat… as one would assume, that completely destroyed my hair," Grande explained on Facebook in 2014. "I wear it in a pony tail because my actual hair is so broken that it looks absolutely ratchet and absurd when I let it down."
