Lady Gaga has been spotted filming in the Louvre and fans think it may be for a music video for her upcoming seventh album.

Gaga is currently promoting her role as Harley Quinn in Joker: Folie à Deux. Last week, she shared a photo of her schedule for the coming months, which included press conferences and a red carpet for the film’s premiere.

Alongside the Joker-related events, fans spotted a line that read: “XX October: LG7 first single”, implying that the lead single the then unannounced album would be coming soon. She later confirmed in an interview with Vogue that the album will be released in February 2025.

The upcoming single will be her first new material since last month’s ‘Die With A Smile’, a surprise collaboration with Bruno Mars, and the album will be her first solo LP since 2020’s ‘Chromatica’.

Now, fans are speculating that she’s filming a music video for the yet-to-be-released seventh album after she was spotted in the Louvre in Paris alongside a film crew.

Photos shared to Twitter/X show Gaga standing on a balcony in the museum, observing a setup of professional lighting below.

It wouldn’t be the first crossover between a pop star and the iconic museum – Beyoncé and Jay Z famously filmed the visuals for ‘Apeshit’ from their 2018 collaborative album ‘EVERYTHING IS LOVE’ there. Meanwhile, Lorde named a track on 2017’s ‘Melodrama’ after the museum.

Gaga has been teasing posts of her in the studio over this year, but very little is known about the album at this stage. She did, however, play a couple of snippets from the album for fans on the streets of Paris in July, shortly after she performed at the Olympics opening ceremony in the city.

She also mentioned an upcoming project upon the release of ‘Die With A Smile’. “I was finishing up my own album in Malibu and one night after a long day [Bruno Mars] asked me to come to his studio to hear something he was working on,” she said.

“It was around midnight when I got there and I was blown away when I heard what he had started making. We stayed up all night and finished writing and recording the song.”

Gaga, who recently announced her engagement to entrepreneur Michael Polansky, collaborated with the Rolling Stones and Stevie Wonder on the track ‘Sweet Sounds Of Heaven’ last year, and has spent a lot of time on her acting career since ‘Chromatica’, starring in 2021’s House of Gucci as well as the upcoming Joker: Folie à Deux.

She also released an album, ‘Love For Sale’, with the late Tony Bennett in 2021, his final album before he died in July 2023. The singer headed out on ‘The Chromatica Ball‘ tour across 2022, too, and shared the Gaga Chromatica Ball film in May this year through HBO Max.

At the premiere for the film, she said, “I have written so many songs and I have produced so many songs. It’s nothing like anything that I’ve ever made before … There’s something really beautiful about knowing that you will be loved no matter what you do.”

In a four-star review of the album, NME described it as “pure pop celebration from an icon in a world of her own,” and said: “The record is littered with catchy choruses and glossy production – but it goes deeper than that.

“‘Chromatica’ is “about healing and it’s about bravery”, she explained before the album came out, adding: “sound is what healed me in my life period, and it healed me again making this record”. You can certainly hear that. From the exhilarating melodies to the positive, hope-filled lyrics, ‘Chromatica’ is a celebration – and a well-deserved one at that.”
