Lady Gaga will appear in an episode of The Simpsons

  • August 23, 2011
  • Brad O'Mance

Lady Gaga will appear in a future episode of The Simpsons. When we say "appear" we of course mean "she will be rep­res­en­ted by a yellow cartoon version of herself but the voice will be hers".

The episode is called 'Lisa Goes Gaga' (needs work) and involves Gaga making a pit stop in Springfield after hearing about a spate of low self esteem. Apparently she cheers everyone up with "the power of speech, song, and a flash mob".

Still, it's not all about self help and loving yourself, there's also time for some (cartoon) girl-on-girl action, with Gaga sharing a kiss with Marge. “I play a little bit of a slut,” she told Entertainment Weekly. “The apple doesn’t fall far from my artistic tree.”

Of the move into voice over work, Gaga said: “I make music, but I don’t do voice-overs every day of the week, and their char­ac­ters are so awesomely con­vin­cing and sincere and wild and funny, I had to remind myself con­stantly of the sincerity of the humor. That’s what I was trying to focus on, not putting on a character too much and really being as sincere as I could with the lines."

The episode is due to be shown in America next Spring.
