MTV Unplugged: Tony Bennett & Lady Gaga

We finally have a date for MTV Unplugged: Tony Bennett & Lady Gaga screening on Friday, 17 December, same day as the USA.

This was filmed earlier this year in front of an intimate audience in New York City and features a combination of stripped back duets and solo songs from Love For Sale.

This is one of three projects between Bennett, Gaga and ViacomCBS, rolling out internationally through CBS, MTV Entertainment Group and Paramount+.

Released October 1st from Columbia Records/Interscope, the critically-acclaimed collaborative album celebrates the Cole Porter Song book and is the culmination of Tony and Gaga’s decade-long recording history and friendship. Love For Sale received six Grammy® nominations, including Album of the Year and Record of the Year, and made Tony Bennett the oldest recording artist to be nominated in these or any other General Field categories.

MTV Unplugged: Tony Bennett & Lady Gaga marks Lady Gaga’s first appearance on the iconic music series and Tony’s second; his first MTV Unplugged special aired in 1994.

MTV Unplugged: Tony Bennett & Lady Gaga will premiere during Love Music With MTV, a month-long global celebration of the brand’s best music series and moments from the VMAs to Unplugged. Sundays in December, the programming event will also feature premieres of MTV Unplugged: Bastille and Sounds Like A Gameshow, a new series where unsuspecting people on the street will have the chance to earn cash playing hilarious mini games based on popular songs.

MTV Unplugged is produced by MTV Entertainment Studios.

Friday, 17 December at 1pm on MTV.
