* Her [[WhatCouldHaveBeen scrapped]] music video for "Do What U Want" was going to be this, featuring scenes of Gaga as a hospital patient [[RealitySubtext suffering from a aching hip]], naked under a sheet and being drugged by a doctor played by R.Kelly (who tells her [[DudeShesLikeInAComa she will "wake up pregnant" while fondling her]]), and featuring artwork by Terry Richardson, who has been accused ''multiple'' times of exploiting and raping his female models. Doubles as FetishRetardant and HarsherInHindsight due to R. Kelly's own controversies of rape and sex trafficking towards other women.
