Thanks for all this information. But if you think this version of Gaga is weird, how about this version of The Who's My Generation?

It's not bizarre, it's actually FABULOUS. It's catchy and attention getting. It's also a representation of the attempt to bridge the gap between elders and the youth in China which is a serious problem in Chinese society.
