The outlandish songstress yesterday released the very first sneak peek of the Born This Way cover to her little monsters on Twitter, and she’s managed to surprise us. Again.

    Half woman, half motorcycle, the singer appears to be fused into the super-shiny structure in the striking black and white image.

    Gaga bares her teeth and stares into the lense in the sleek album shot taken by celebrity snapper Nick Knight.
