After 15 years, it seems Lady Gaga might finally be picking up the Telephone again, and fans are buzzing with excitement.
The iconic pop star has reignited speculation about a long-awaited sequel to her 2010 hit Telephone, which famously featured none other than Beyoncé.
During a recent press conference for her highly anticipated album Mayhem, Lady Gaga addressed the rumors head-on, sending the internet into a frenzy. A devoted Little Monster eagerly inquired about a potential follow-up to the beloved track, and the Rain on Me singer didn’t shy away from teasing a response.
“The tea on Telephone Part 2 is that there will be,” Lady Gaga coyly revealed. “But I’m not going to give it all away. You wouldn’t want that anyway.”
Naturally, the fan base demanded more, with one person asking if they could at least get a small preview of the new song. But Lady Gaga, ever the queen of suspense, had an unexpected and playful suggestion.
“I think that you should all call Beyoncé together,” she quipped, leaving fans desperate for answers.
The possibility of a Telephone sequel has been a topic of discussion for years. Lady Gaga herself fueled the speculation just last month during a Vanity Fair lie detector test, where she confirmed that she was indeed working on a follow-up. However, when directly asked whether Beyoncé would be involved, she kept things cryptic with a simple “maybe.”
Still, this hasn’t stopped fans from piecing together potential clues that point to a long-overdue reunion. Some have drawn connections between Beyoncé’s recent smash hit Texas Hold ’Em and Lady Gaga’s Poker Face, noting their shared card game themes. Others believe that Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter album announcement video—where she’s seen driving a retro taxi—might be a subtle nod to the original Telephone music video, where she famously rescues Lady Gaga from jail in the Pussy Wagon.
So, is Telephone Part 2 truly on the horizon? While nothing has been officially confirmed, all signs seem to suggest that Lady Gaga and Beyoncé could be gearing up for another legendary collaboration. Until then, fans will just have to wait by the phone and hope that the call comes soon.
