EXCLUSIVE: A Current Affair has landed a major coup with Lady Gaga set to appear in a one-on-one interview with Tracy Grimshaw, followed by a performance.
The interview, which will be her first TV appearance during her promo tour, will also take place before a studio audience.
Lady Gaga, recently named as the world’s most powerful celebrity by Forbes Magazine, will feature next Monday night across the full half-hour, with the show even re-branded as “A Gaga Affair.”
“Lady Gaga is one of the most exciting performance artists in the world right now,” Grimshaw said.
“She is brave, provocative and passionate. And I gather, can be a bit unpredictable in interviews if she chooses! So bring it on.”
Gaga’s visit to Australia for an appearance at ‘Sydney Monster Hall’ some of which will also be seen later on GO!
“A Gaga Affair” will air at 6:30pm on Monday, July 11 on Nine and will be streamed live at aca.ninemsn.com.au.

Love GaGa!
@DZAN TCN. Sarah Harris, Lisa Wilkinson & Tracy have talked about it on twitter being broadcast and filmed from Nine’s Sydney studios.
They were made for each other. Even TMZ seems classy in comparison.
tracy cant be that bad if shes been there for 30 years, you haters keep with your second tier channel 7 news like the bunch of losers you are
Hopefully they’ll ask hard hitting questions like: “tell us about your new single”
Is this going to be coming from TCN or GTV?
Can’t see why there’s so many personal attacks on Tracy. She’s a great journalist and an even better interviewer. It’s a shame though that she works on such a pathetic, useless show.
I’m still in love with Judas!!!! Great work, Tracey is a brilliant interviewer for female artists … it will be must watch TV!
At least ACA is maintaining its usual journalistic standards and integrity. TG has a habit of sucking up to celebs who wanna promote something, so don’t expect anything earth shattering. It will however appeal broadly to people who tend to watch ACA & TT.
Will the people who usually watch ACA have any idea who Gaga is? Isn’t it still like the 1970’s for them?
If the audience doesn’t rise for 6:30 w/ George Negus on monday night, there is something wrong….
“So, are you still in love with Judas?”
Come on guys… why the bitter attack on Tracy? Lighten up… everyone knows ACA & TT only show what they think will get them the most viewers.
@PTRyan : (That’s my favourite comment of the year so far! 😉 )
If ACA have any sort of journalistic integrity left, they’ll ask her how on earth she’s suckered so many into buying into her turgid maelstrom of garbage.
Not everyone will be a Gaga fan, but it’s still a major coup to get an interview and especially a performance. Glee and So You Think You Can Dance make a big deal out of nabbing her, and ACA has always interviewed showbiz names across its lifetime.
Ahhhh… great to see some serious political debate and stories of substance on A Current Affair.
How much do you want to wager that TT will run a story about how loony/demented/bizarre Gaga is the same night??
Tracy: So Lady, oh I’m sorry, do you prefer to be called Ms. Gaga? In any case, what are your thoughts on electrical bills? Also, do you think speed camera are revenue raisers?
Is ACA trying to turn into a light entertainment show now. Whats with the live performance on a current affairs show.
A talentless performer being interviewed by a talentless journalist on a crap show.
Well I’ll be watching for sure. I’m not sure though it will lift ACA’s ratings above TT
I’m surprised GO! wanted the rights to the concert though seeing as it the HBO version didn’t do all that well for ELEVEN
Not exactly Frost/Nixon, is it?
More reason to keep it on Neighbours, thanks for the warning.
Good Lord. Disgrace Grimshaw, disgrace trash your own reputation even more. Obviously gaga’s lackeys dont mind what kind of a show she appears on. Or they are contractualy obliged to be on aca?
The Worst interviewer on the planet.
