Lady GaGa reportedly is going to shoot a music video for her next single "The Edge of Glory" this weekend. According to a casting notice obtained by E! Online, the Mother Monster is searching a "Puerto Rican or Dominican type badass" to play her love interest in the forthcoming video.
Beside being a good looking guy, the actor also "must be willing to kiss Lady GaGa." In a more specific note, her team refers the ideal guy to Enrique Iglesias, the hot Latin pop singer who recently revealed that he would love to collaborate with the "Born This Way" hitmaker.
In addition to the leading man, GaGa is looking for several male "Couture Doctors" as well. They are going to be decked out in white smocks and black gloves. "Think Dr. 90210," her team described. Top cap it all, a "male or female on-air reporter" and a group of military-type men are wanted as extras as well.
"The Edge of Glory" features GaGa showing off her softer side. She lets down her guard and sings in all her glory in the name of love on the summer jam filler. Taking inspiration from her late grandfather, she said the song is "about your last moment on earth, the moment of truth, the moment before you leave earth."
Initially released as part of "Born This Way" iTunes countdown, the single was quickly picked up as the third single of the album after it soared to No. 1 on the digital songs chart just one day after its arrival. Featuring a sax solo by Clarence Clemons, it's currently sitting at No. 3 on Billboard Hot 100.
