I know she said on Jonathan Ross last night that she doesn't want to rush into any more duets, but I think a collaborations EP/album would be amazing. I could imagine appearances from Britney Spears, David Bowie, Justin Timberlake, Paul McCartney, Rihanna... - quite an eclectic mix.

Thoughts?

I really pray David Bowie doesn't, I just don't want the great man's legacy ruined by irrelevant duets!

I think that it would be interesting but she might have to take a break so that we don't get sick of her.

Collabs are ok. But to be honest, beyonce's appearance on Telephone is nothing major. I could so totally imagine a non beyonce version and I probs wouldn't know the difference. But having a featured guest can create exposure. No one would have bothered with 30h3's song if Katy perry hadn't been on it.

I think Gaga has a very clear artistic vision and I thnk that might be compromised by having to fit things into duets, working around other artists talents and needs. Do I sound like a knob?

duets are for when you are old and irrelevant, or you had nothing much to say in the first place, if she has anything about her she won't go down that road til she has at least five albums under her belt

She should do some kind of acoustic album because i love how she changes her songs for her live performances, especially Pokerface when she slows its down a bit when playing it on the piano

bare bones accoustic, do you think she can pull it off without all the smoke and mirrors, do we have the new Joni Mitchell on our hands?

Did you see her on Jonathon Ross? She was great at Telephone but it was severely lacking for me without Beyonce's part. The combination sets it apart for me.

She could easily do it without the smoke and mirrors, she has done already in the past with acoustic versions of songs. An unplugged album would be amazing.

I didn't think those were irrelevant, I mean the Queen duet was just awesome!

Have you seen any of her early performances? Most of them were just her and a small keyboard. Occasionally she had a drummer and guitarist with her. That's all.

no, but she didn't sell 10m records on the strength of that did she, personally I'd prefer that to her stuff that sells tbh, but I just doubt most of her fans would ?

I completely disagree. Everyone's collaborating nowadays, its overkill. I'm more interested in hearing more of her solo work, and I think it makes for a more consistent album the fewer collaborators/producers who are involved in the project.

Also Telephone would be perfectly fine without Beyonce. The only reason it sounded a bit rubbish on JR is because it was such a lacklustre performance, and because she repeated the first verse twice.
