## Lady Gaga Fully Embraces Her Harlequin Era, Leaving Chromatica Behind

Lady Gaga ushers in her Harlequin era with the announcement of her LG7 album, fully moving on from Chromatica.

If you feel like [Lady Gaga](https://www.popfiltr.com/artist-profile/lady-gaga)'s name has been all over your feed today, you're not mistaken. The pop icon packed a lot into one day, kicking off the start of a bold new era in her career.

It all began with the release of a teaser visualizer for *Harlequin*, her highly anticipated companion album to *Joker: Folie à Deux*. The teaser, produced in collaboration with the Louvre, saw the museum temporarily changing its profile picture to a Harley Quinn-inspired Mona Lisa.

Later in the day, [Lady Gaga](https://www.popfiltr.com/artist-profile/lady-gaga), accompanied by her fiancé Michael Polansky, who is also credited as an executive producer on *Harlequin*, hit the [red carpet](https://www.popfiltr.com/articles/lady-gaga-debuts-harlequin-at-london-listening-party-for-all-your-crazy-times) at the *Joker* London premiere. Gaga turned heads in her dramatic style, but that wasn't the only spotlight moment. Following the premiere, she hosted an exclusive listening party for *Harlequin*, giving fans an immersive preview of the 13-track album, which features reimagined soundtracks and original songs for the film. She playfully described it as music “for all your uncomfortable dinner parties and crazy times.”

But perhaps the most exciting news for Little Monsters came when Gaga [confirmed](https://x.com/APEntertainment/status/1839031233507893675)her seventh studio album is set to release in February 2025. While details are still under wraps,[Gaga](https://www.popfiltr.com/artist-profile/lady-gaga) promised a single would arrive in the near future, signaling a new direction for her music.

[Gaga](https://www.popfiltr.com/artist-profile/lady-gaga) signaled her transition into the *Harley Quinn* era by updating her social media profiles, removing all references to her *Chromatica Ball* tour and her beauty brand, Haus Labs. This marks the official end of her *Chromatica* phase, as she moves away from the bright, futuristic visuals and sounds. Now, Gaga is fully embracing the darker, chaotic world of Harley Quinn, reflecting the more immersive and theatrical direction expected in her upcoming projects, starting with the release of *Harlequin* and her seventh studio album in February.
