It's a wrapadocious! [Leading us to believe that shooting finished on the 2nd day. However, other sources say they are filming at a different location on the 3rd day, so maybe just the dancing scenes are finished]

So apparently gaga had a blonde and pink wig and a black dress in one scene...
The dancers had bandages on their heads and hosiptal gowns on
MTN update: there's a fire alarm going off on set... Don't know if its intentional or not but everyone seems calm.. Idk lol
Omg wait there's an actual fire on the set......
the fire alarm went off and the security guard told us to clear the road because the fire department was coming
I'm not sure if its real or not but the fire alarm is deff going off lol. Guess we won't know until the vid comes out
Gaga has on a tutu and short blonde hair on set
@176Stanton wait so was it an intentional fire or accidental? lmao @NicoleMonster23 I think it might have been intentional lmao
So gaga didn't stop leaving the shoot [till 4am] +when she got to her hotel she was passed out. Ed carried her inside+asked that no one take pics. Aww! She was wrapped in blankets+had a pillow that said LG on it ahhhh the baby<3

The last scene involves a bathtub. Gaga is filming it right now. @MarcMonster this is what the security guard told us. He also told people there was a little girl strapped to the table ?? Lmao -This could be a reference to what Gaga said in a RollingStone interview around the time she wrote Marry The Night:
Quote:
“I have this recurring dream sometimes where there’s a phantom in my home and he takes me into a room, and there’s a blond girl with ropes tied to all four of her limbs. And she’s got my shoes on from the Grammys. Go figure—pyscho. And the ropes are pulling her apart.”
But it gets even stranger. “I never see her get pulled apart, but I just watch her whimper, and then the phantom says to me, ‘If you want me to stop hurting her and if you want your family to be OK, you will cut your wrist.’ And I think that he has his own, like, crazy wrist-cutting device. And he has this honey in, like, Tupperware, and it looks like sweet-and-sour sauce with a lot of MSG from New York. Just bizarre. And he wants me to pour the honey into the wound, and then put cream over it and a gauze.”
The pic of the set of #MTNvideo that @176Stanton tweeted is only outside of the building. Shes not "leaking" anything. Theyre filming inside
Just saw some MTN choreo... Lots of arm motions, fast movement. And Mark wearing leather pants +no shirts, girls wearing ballerina leotards
It was just 3 dancers, and not main dancers.

@HausOfAshleyy happy birthday! and yes I like it
Any guesses what the #MarryTheNightVideo is about (since you know about Dina and Pepper, etc)? I'm not going to spoil anything, just curious

didn't get to see any of the actual set myself, but the people I talked to said she was filming in the one of the buildings today. The architecture was very classical, almost like an old creepy mansion but on a smaller scale. I also heard that she may be filming outside in the next few days, not sure on that though since most of the security didn't know much about the actual plot/setting of the video.
OMG. The security guard said there was a lot of ballerinas that showed up and she said "she's (gaga) gunna be a ballerina this time" OMG.
...it's a public park and there's a museum, and also college classes being held within 20 feet of the building Gaga was shooting in today...
MAJOR traffic jam outside the entrance. Lolz
Cars and vans keep going in and out of the entrance. Verrrry interesting.
so I was at the set all day today, they kicked us out at 7pm and the hair fashion is crazy!!! the female dancers are ballerinas and the male dancers all have like really tight black leather outfits
I know she will be filming inside of the theatre and I heard she also wanted to use the stairs at the side of the theatre... I'm going with what the ppl at the Jesus Christ Superstar rehearsal told me, and there is a chance she will be using the JCS set bc my friend told me they didn't take down the set... and I think the set is cool, I dont have pics bc we couldnt take pics at the show but it really is pretty and I can totally see her using the set
Lynn Kelly (President &CEO of Snug Harbor Cultural Center/Botanical Garden):
Quote:
“We’re really excited she chose Snug Harbor and we wish them well,” she said, tightlipped on whether Ms. Gaga would be back or the nature of the video she would only say is being filmed at “several locations on campus.”

-ok, first off: directing the #MarryTheNightVideo is NOT the team of Boomkack and Lady Gaga
-Beginning next week in NYC, Darius Khondji, Gideon Ponte, and of course Lady Gaga will be working on/directing the #MarryTheNightVideo
HausOfMike (GGDB User 5/10/11):
A couple minutes ago Elvis Duran said that Gaga is shooting her next video. When he said it, it was a little confusing. She either started on Monday or she's starting next Monday.
(5/10/11):
She is filming the music video at Snug Harbor (Staten Island, NY) I know this bc she interrupted the rehearsal of Wagner College's Jesus Christ Superstar. All of her crew was with her and she took her flip and filmed the theatre at Snug Harbor, she even said she might use the set of the play bc she really liked it, the director of the play said she would be filming the video next week. (6/10/11):
well it was kind of a surprise for the whole cast, the director was like "guys stop for a while, we have a special guest... its gaga. She is here to look at the theatre for a music video, please be professional and don't go crazy" and my friends told me that everyone was silent while she was there, everyone was in shock and idk if this is true but she liked the set of Jesus Christ Superstar so much that she MIGHT use it for the video
EDIT: I know this is my word against everyone else but I know it is true, and in fact I will be a little stalker and go to Snug Harbor everyday of next week just to see if I can get to see gaga
kaypeeveezee Kyle VanZandt(Twitter):
I still can't get over the fact that Lady Gaga just showed up at rehearsal today. Being at Snug Harbor definitely happened for a reason. 3 Oct

MARRY THE NIGHT CONFIRMED AS THE 5TH SINGLE:
GagaDaily (30/09/11):
-The fifth cut from Gaga’s multi-platinum album Born This Way is the fan favorite dance track “Marry The Night,” which was produced by Fernando Garibay and is inspired by Gaga’s love for her hometown New York City.
PROVEN FALSE by Jeff1317 (Jeff [Credible Gaga Insider]) via Twitter:
as far as I know, no RT @HolyHookah is the MTN video the Telephone continuation? or... @jeff1317
The music video will be a mini-movie
The music video will be a fashion film
Gaga may use the "Jesus Christ Superstar" set from a play in Wagner College
Lüc Carl's El Camino "Ginger" will feature in the video (Not likely since Gaga and Luc are broken up)
@ladygaga is NOT using snug harbor as the set of her video. There is a set at the theater there she wants.

Lyrics
VERSE 1:
I'm gonna marry the night
I won't give up on my life
I'm a warrior queen
Live passionately tonight
I'm gonna marry the dark
Gonna make love to the stark
I'm a soldier to my own emptiness
I'm a winner
PRE-CHORUS:
I'm gonna marry the night,
I'm gonna marry the night,
Gonna marry the night.
CHORUS:
I'm gonna marry the night,
I'm not gonna cry anymore
I'm gonna marry the night,
leave nothin' on these streets to explore
POST-CHORUS:
Ma-ma-ma-marry
Ma-ma-ma-marry
Ma-ma-ma-marry the night
Oh ma-ma-ma-marry
Ma-ma-ma-marry
Ma-ma-ma-marry the night
VERSE 2:
I'm gonna lace up my boots
Throw on some leather and cruise
Down the street that I love
In my fishnet gloves
I'm a sinner
Then I'll go down to the bar
But I won't cry anymore
I'll hold my whiskey up high
Kiss the bartender twice
I'm a loser
PRE-CHORUS:
I'm gonna marry the night,
I'm gonna marry the night.
CHORUS:
I'm gonna marry the night,
I'm not gonna cry anymore
I'm gonna marry the night,
leave nothin' on these streets to explore
POST-CHORUS:
Ma-ma-ma-marry
Ma-ma-ma-marry
Ma-ma-ma-marry the night
Oh ma-ma-ma-marry
Ma-ma-ma-marry
Ma-ma-ma-marry the night
BRIDGE:
Nothing's to cool
To take me from you
New York is not just a tan that you'll never lose
Love is the new
Denim or black
Skeleton guns
Are wedding bells in the attic
Get Ginger ready
Climb to El Camino front
Won't poke holes in the seats with my heels
Cuz that's where we make love
Come on and runnnnnn
Turn the car on and runnnnnn
CHORUS:
I'm gonna marry the night
We're gonna burn a hole in the road
I'm gonna marry the night
Leave nothin' on these streets to explore
POST-CHORUS:
Ma-ma-ma-marry
Ma-ma-ma-marry
Ma-ma-ma-marry the night
Oh ma-ma-ma-marry
Ma-ma-ma-marry
Ma-ma-ma-marry the night
OUTRO:
I'm gonna marry, marry,
I'm gonna marry, marry,
Come on, come on,
The night, the night, the night, the night, the night, the night, the night,
The night, the night, the night, the night, the night, the night,
The night, the night, the night

The fifth cut from Gaga’s multi-platinum album Born This Way is the fan favorite dance track “Marry The Night,” which was produced by Fernando Garibay and is inspired by Gaga’s love for her hometown New York City.
“I wrote so many songs on this new album about New York City, but one in particular ‘Marry The Night,’ that record is about my husband, New York,” she told MTV prior to the album release.
“You know, we’ve been working together for years, so I’m so excited. I feel like, you and I have yet to have our big hit record,” Gaga said of collaborating with Garibay. “I kept saying to him, ‘I don’t want to do anything I’ve done before. I don’t want to sound like anything I’ve done before.’”
“He goes ‘Your show is a religion and your fans are a cult,’” she recalled. “And I heard these church bells. It’s this epic music. It’s just so big. And I started to cry. He said, ‘What’s wrong?’ And I said,’I can’t believe that you hear me so big.’ ”
“It’s like Whitney, but imagine if Bruce Springsteen had a baby with Whitney Houston — that’s what it is,” she added. “And that was it! We made a baby. Finally. After all that fornication, miserably long and tedious, Fernando and I finally conceived.”
“Marry The Night” debuted on Billboard’s top 100 singles back in May, when it reached number 79 due to strong digital sales following the release of Born This Way.
Garibay:
Quote:
We did this [dance] song that possibly might be the third single; it's called 'Marry the Night.' It's probably one of my favorite songs on the album. It tells about being yourself and individuality and never forgetting who you are.
NME:
Quote:
Peak-era Whitney Houston-esque pop euphoria up top, with churning techno grinding underneath. "This is about me going back to New York. I wrote this about the courage it took for me to say 'I hate Hollywood, I just wanna live in Brooklyn and make music.
Gaga:
Quote:
Magazine interview: The song "Marry the Night," which Gaga wrote once she was this superstar she had always dreamed of being, is particularly memorable. She says that once she had become a household name--after winning Grammys, after wrestling with Madonna on Saturday Night Live, after countless magazine covers--she felt pressured to move to the pop-culture mecca that is Los Angeles. "I had all these number-one records, and I had sold all these albums, and it was sort of this turning point: Am I going to try and embrace Hollywood and assimilate to that culture?" Suffice to say, it didn't work out. "I put my toe in that water, and it was a Kegel-exercise vaginal reaction where I clenched and had to retract immediately," she says in a very vivid metaphor. "I ran furiously back to New York, to my old apartment, and I hung out with my friends, and I went to the same bars."
Gaga wants Marry the Night to be the 3rd single
Gaga: It's my absolute favourite track on the album.
Gaga: It's about my journey in the music business once I had been through the evolution from The Fame to The Fame Monster. How I ultimately decided that I'm really only in this for the music and I'm not in it for the money, the glamour, and the after parties. I'm in it to be a performer and to be honest and truthful with my records. Why do I have to live in a big house? Why do I have to have tonnes of fancy cars? Why can't I just live in a little apartment in Brooklyn and shove all my fashion into the biggest closet I can find and just live how I've always lived?
Originally chosen as the first single (but Born This Way single chosen instead)
First song on the record - represents birth/beginnings
Fernando Garibay produced
The song - It was like this sonic light bulb went off and we were like, "That's the sound! That's the future."
You know, I thought this was the video and I was about to have a bitch fit, but this thread is amazing, so I'm not even gonna bother complaining. Welcome to ATRL.
This'll be her best video besides Bad Romance. I'm calling it now. If not, I may have a meltdown.
