Releasing a double feature of music videos she also unveiled the video for Die With A Smile.
The disturbing video for Disease sees her fighting with different versions of herself and chained up in a darkened room.
The video begins with the star seemingly the victim of a car crash as she lies bloody on the bonnet of a car.
onvulsing she then awakens and opens her eyes to begin singing. She then climbs up the car to look at the driver who is dressed as a terrifying character in leather look.
She then jumps off the car before engaging in a savage fight with another version of herself.
The next scene then cuts to her chained up in the dark wearing white underwear and covered in scars as she stands on top of yet another version of herself.
She then wraps her legs around the other Lady Gaga to try and strangle her as the tension intensifies.
The scary leather clad character from earlier is then seen vomiting black liquid next to another Lady Gaga who is lying on the crown.
She is then seen trying to escape the chaos as she gets trapped between two closing walls that eventually crush her to death.
It comes as Lady Gaga, 38, revealed she was ‘overwhelmed’ by her Little Monsters’ reaction to her latest tune Disease.
The pop superstar said she feels ‘insane joy’ about her fandom’s response to her electro-pop banger – and teased that there is ‘a LOT more to come’.
She gushed on Instagram alongside a selfie of her smiling with her eyes closed: ‘I honestly am trying to find the right words to say – I have been so excited to release my new music and to see all the monsters come alive and dance and perform and smile and cry is such an insane joy.
‘I’m so grateful and overwhelmed at your love for Disease. Keep dancing. There’s a LOT more to come.
‘I haven’t seen our community like this in a very long time. Thank you for coming on this ride w me all these years and still showing up for the music also…happy Halloween (sic)’
The follow-up to 2020’s Chromatica LP is expected to arrive in February.
Meanwhile, it was recently claimed that Gaga has decided to delay her world tour until 2026.
Due to huge names, including Oasis and Coldplay, booking up multiple dates at stadiums across the UK, there are said to be no spaces available for Gaga – whose last tour was the Chromatica Ball in 2022 – forcing her to push back the run by a year.
An insider told The Sun newspaper’s Bizarre column: ‘Lady Gaga is planning the biggest tour of her career – but it will have to wait.
‘She sold out two nights at London’s Tottenham Hotspur Stadium during her 20-date Chromatica Ball tour in 2022 and the demand was so huge, she wants to push the boat out even more this time.
‘Her next album will be out in the new year and she hoped to spend much of the summer on tour.
‘But acts like Oasis and Coldplay have thwarted it. She has been told there’s no room at the inn, so she will have to make do with touring in 2026 instead.
Appearing on the Smallzy’s Surgery podcast recently, Gaga teased she was planning some concerts.
She said: ‘All I can tell you is that I’ve just been feeling so creative, and really connected to music and I’ve been working on so much music.
‘I’m really excited to play it for the fans.’
Disease follows Gaga’s hit collaboration with Bruno Mars, Die With A Smile, and her starring role as Harleen ‘Lee’ Quinzel in Joker: Folie à Deux alongside Joaquin Phoenix (Joker/Arthur Fleck) and her companion album, Harlequin.
