Sex & Nudity

  • While overt nudity is indiscernible, the video contains sexualised imagery throughout. Lady Gaga appears to be nude in some shots (with low lighting concealing any further detail). In other shots, she wears a high fashion lingerie-style garment that exposes most of her breasts, but concealing her nipples.
  • Also contains infrequent verbal and visual sexual references that are unlikely to be understood by young viewers. In one brief instance, Lady Gaga performs what appears to be a masturbation gesture with her hand (simulating penile stimulation). This visual is complemented with the lyric: "I want your... vertigo schtick."
  • In one scene, Gaga is stripped by dancers, leaving her wearing only silver panties and a top made of jewels that hangs loosely and covers only part of her breasts. She is embarrassed and tries covering herself with her hands.
  • Dancers wear revealing clothing

Violence & Gore

  • A bed catches fire while a man is laying in it (though there is no further detail of him being burned alive). The bed is later shown to be incinerated, with Lady Gaga laying on the charred remains, appearing to be mentally disturbed, with a skeleton lying on the other side, implying the death of the man laying on it earlier.

Profanity

  • Contains five uses of "bitch", including two self-referential uses (i.e. "I'm a free bitch, baby.").

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • Contains vodka consumption and product placement.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The implication that a man has been burned alive and the visual of a disturbed Lady Gaga laying in bed with his skeletal remains may disturb children and other vulnerable people.
