New Die Antwoord video features Lady Gaga parody, is cringe-worthy [Update]
The latest video from international viral sensations Die Antwoord has dropped, and it’s about the most cringe-inducing thing you’ll ever see.
The video, which is for the track “Fatty Boom Boom” features a taxi driver come tour guide taking a Lady Gaga (meat dress and all) parody around downtown Joahnnesburg.
While Yolandi, Ninja and DJ Hi-Tek do what we’ve come to expect of them — rap crude lyrics, wear vaguely offensive costumes and gyrate wildly — much of the video appears to be an attack on Lady Gaga.
The “Zef” group famously turned down an invitation to tour with the pop mega-star back in March.
Cringe-worthy as the video is, the song is ridiculously catchy. So expect to find yourself singing it out loud in the office or at home over the next few days…and hating yourself for it.
Lady Gaga took to Twitter to respond to the video:
i fink u freaky but you don’t have a hit. hundred thousand tIckets sold in SA. #thatmyshit
