There's just no stopping Lady Gaga.

Last week the provocative singer/pianist/ fashion tease accomplished something that's never been done before, as her debut album The Fame became the first album in history to produce four No. 1 radio hits.

This week, the artistic petri dish is turning things up a notch with her video for "Bad Romance" (watch below), the first single off the Nov. 24 re-release of The Fame, entitled The Fame Monster.

If you love Lady Gaga, you'll love the clip - and if you don't love her yet, you just might after watching the five-minute video, a voyeuristic joyride complete with razorblade sunglasses, vodka, a char-broiled lover, and a certain Lady's cheeky backside.

The re-packaged debut will include eight new songs that can be described as, according to Gaga, "a pop experimentation with industrial/Goth beats, '90s dance melodies, an obsession with the lyrical genius of '80s melancholic pop, and the runway."

The album will be supported by The Monster Ball tour, which kicks off Nov. 27 in Montreal, and ends Jan. 18, in Uncasville, CT. Click here for full itinerary and details.

"On my re-release, The Fame Monster, I wrote about everything I didn't write on The Fame," she said in a statement. "While traveling the world for two years, I've encountered several monsters, each represented by a different song on my new record: my 'Fear of Sex Monster,' my 'Fear of Alcohol Monster,' my 'Fear of Love Monster,' my 'Fear of Death Monster,' my 'Fear of Loneliness Monster,' etc."

Last week, Google got Gaga, announcing that their enhanced search features for music will include streaming audio previews and purchase options powered by MySpace and Lala. To help position themselves in the music market, Google is offering exclusive tracks from superstar artists including Lady Gaga.

"If you’re a Lady Gaga fan looking for a new remix, in love with the Arctic Monkeys and looking for something extra or hunting for a new acoustic track from YouTube sensation Zee Avi, just search for it," the search giant said in a press release. "You’ll find links to these tracks right in your regular search results. And when you click the links, you’ll be able to hear the songs directly from MySpace and Lala."
