Lady Gaga Announces Her New Album 'Joanne'

(Radio.com) Lady Gaga announced that her fifth studio album Joanne will be released on October 21st. She spoke about the project on Thursday (September 15) on Zane Lowe's Beats 1 Radio show.

The title has to do with her aunt, who died of lupus when Gaga was younger. "It happens to be my middle name," she shared. "It's all the toughness of the pain that happened as a result of losing her. She is the woman of my past that is becoming and helping me bring more of my honest woman self into the future."

Gaga also said about the 11 songs that will appear on the album, "It's just so personal. Every single song�every one of those is extremely autobiographical." Read more here.
