Lady Gaga Collaborates With Queen's Brian May On 'Born This Way'

April 18, 2011
Lady Gaga Collaborates With Queen's Brian May On 'Born This Way'Lady Gaga has collaborated with Queen's Brian May on her new album, it has been reported.

The singer, who released the artwork for album 'Born This Way' on Saturday (April 16)', has teamed up with the guitarist on album track 'You & I', reports The Mirror.

A source told The Mirror: "It's always been Gaga's dream to perform as Queen. If it wasn't for Queen, there would be no Gaga. This collaboration with Brian May means the world to her."

Lady Gaga has previously called Queen frontman Freddie Mercury a 'genius':  "Freddie was unique - one of the biggest personalities in the whole of pop music. He was not only a singer but a fantastic performer, a man of the theatre, who constantly transformed himself. In short: a genius."
