We all remember Ridley Scott's 70s B-movie classic 'Alien'. The smash hit movie spawned (no pun intended) no less than 4 sequels and a collection of Alien themed movies to add to the sci-fi genre. (Star Sigorney Weaver became a household name after this).

Pop icon Lady Gaga made the Alien popular once more and has paid tribute to these infamous movies in her latest video 'Born This Way'.
She gives birth to 'a new race' and paid homage using her 7 minute mini-movie:
The video was directed by renowned photographer/director Nick Knight who also shot the as yet unseen album artwork.
At the Grammys in early February, she arrived in her 'vessel' seen in the first picture above and I think you'll agree that she took more than a little inspiration from Scott's cult classic. (According to rumors, she stayed in this for three days before the ceremony)...
I love the cheesy feel it and the fact that she paid tribute to these infamous movies whilst keeping in it modern, contemporary and fashionable.
Thoughts?
Gaga's Born This Way album hits stores on May 23rd.
