With that said, Judas. I can't at the Katy fans thinking that floating in front of a green screen costs a lot of money. The only CGI in ET is at the beginning when Katy is an alien and it's horrible CGI.

The whole thing is CGI. Every background, when the makeup moves on her face, when she crashes to earth, the effects on the robot, everything. And CGI, one can tell you, is not cheap. They probably hired two production teams, one to handle actual video, and the other to handle CGI alone. But ET's video was probably filmed on a single set.
Gaga had a ton of dancers, a ton of sets that have to be dressed and furnished, and she did rent out multiple stages and a section of the highway, and all that equals a ton of crew and production.
So really, it's a toss up.
Only actual professionals in the industry could tell us more.
I got some weird Manson vibes from parts of the ET video.
Not the Judas part, but the E.T. one. Those are actually the best special effects used in a music video, everything about it is flawless. 
VMAs agree. I hope you were kidding.
