The pop star ditches her risque clothes and lyrics to record a variety of duets with Tony Bennett, who is 60 years her senior.
Gaga And Bennett Go Cheek To Cheek
Lady Gaga says she is "happier than she's ever been" after recording a jazz album with Tony Bennett.
The star, who is known for her controversial outfits and music videos, said recording jazz was easier than pop.
"You know, it's funny, but jazz comes a little more comfortable for me than pop music, than R&B music," Gaga said ahead of the duo's taped performance in New York on Monday.
"I've sung jazz since I was 13 years old, which is kind of like my little secret that Tony found out. So this is almost easier for me than anything else."
The 28-year-old and 87-year-old Bennett first collaborated on his Grammy-winning, platinum-selling 2011 album, Duets II.
Bennett said fans will be impressed with Gaga's vocal performance on the upcoming album Cheek To Cheek.
"They're going to say we had no idea she sings that well," he said.
"And they're gonna say they had no idea that Tony dressed so crazy," Gaga added. "When you come out in your meat dress Tony, nobody is going to know what's going on."
