Lady Gaga lays to rest rumors that she's mixed gender and replaces them with visions of masochistic lesbian love in her latest eye-popping music video. "I told you she didn't have a dick," one buff female prison guard tells another after stripping Lady G in a cell in the video (watch it here) for Telephone. "Too bad," remarks the other. Gaga then struts her stuff in a barely-there thong (or just evidence tape) with little space to hide anything along with a chorus of cons and later Beyoncé, who kills off a male lover with the help of an über-vamped-up Gaga.

MTV dubbed the high-budget, 9-minute extravaganza a "hyperkinetic pop-culture joyride" with homages to films like Caged Heat and Kill Bill. In fact, Bill director Quentin Tarantino acted as a kind of consultant on the video. "There certainly is a Tarantino-inspired quality in the video," Gaga explains to E! Online. "I was telling him about my concept for the video and he loved it so much he said, 'You gotta use the Pussy Wagon'"—which is what Beyoncé uses to whisk Gaga out of prison. (More Beyonce stories.)
