Catch a glimpse of Lady Gaga as she flaunts her fabulous figure in new comeback video

Lady Gaga used the oldest trick in the book, her body, to fend off chart competition from Katy Perry in her comeback music video for 'Applause'.

After two years off the music scene, Lady Gaga's first official video (released yesterday) from the forthcoming Artpop album features her writhing around on a mattress in skimpy black undies as well as pulling some choreographed moves in a hand-grope bikini and pole dancing in a clam shell cover up.

The famously eccentric star - who premiered the video with an appearance on 'Good Morning America' - is currently waged in a chart battle with popstar Katy Perry after deliberating rushing her single to release.

Yet it's Perry who is expected to land the top spot this weekend as it's expected to shift 525,000 sales by the end of the week.

Gaga calls the video 'fashion, pop, performance art fantasia' and claims to be starting a fresh with this latest, most raunchy video yet.

'OK let's start over!' she Tweeted fans. 'I'm so excited to see u at the premiere of my video @gma in 8 hrs. I am grateful to share this new experience with you!'

To create the 'fantasia', there's magic (where she emerges from a giant hat) and illusions as Gaga appears behind a cape in her newest, trademark look - splashes of brightly coloured face paint.

She might be needing some magic if she's hoping to keep Katy Perry from topping the charts this weekend. We'll have to just wait and see.
