Lady Gaga and Tim Burton have reportedly joined creative forces for a mysterious new music video filmed in Mexico. According to local media and fan-captured footage, the pair were spotted over the weekend on the Island of the Dolls in Xochimilco, a famously eerie location south of Mexico City known for its haunted reputation and hundreds of decaying dolls strung across trees and structures.
Gaga, seen in dramatic makeup and dark costume, was accompanied by Burton, whose presence immediately sparked rumours of a gothic-style project. The shoot appears to centre on a haunting theme, with the island’s unsettling ambiance perfectly matching Burton’s signature aesthetic. For Gaga, the video could signal the beginning of a new musical era, especially following the completion of her ‘Mayhem’ promotional tour in May.
Though neither Gaga nor Burton has publicly confirmed the collaboration, images and short clips circulating online show crew, equipment, and both artists fully immersed in what fans describe as “a horror-pop dream come true.” One user posted, “She’s feeding us this era,” fuelling speculation that a new single or album may be on the horizon.
Burton, best known for films like Edward Scissorhands and Corpse Bride, has never directed a Gaga project until now. Their collaboration, combining Gaga’s bold theatrics with Burton’s gothic visuals, promises a surreal and cinematic experience.
No official release date has been announced yet, but the production’s secrecy and buzz suggest something major is on the way.
