POP chameleon Lady Gaga will release her long-waited sixth album Chromatica on Good Friday, April 10.
It's been four years since Gaga's most recent solo album, Joanne, but during that time she starred in the acclaimed film A Star Is Born and performed tracks with co-star Bradley Cooper for the popular soundtrack.
It's also rumoured that fellow pop star P!nk will perform a duet with Gaga on the forthcoming album.
Last week the first taste of Chromatica was unveiled with the single Stupid Love, which signalled a return to the anthemic synth-pop of Gaga's Born This Way era. Fans have certainly not forgotten The Fame Monster megastar. Stupid Love has attracted 21 million streams on Spotify in a week and the elaborate video has been viewed almost 26 million times.
PLUM AWARD
THELMA Plum continued her transformation into one of Australia's fasting-rising indie artists by winning Album Of The Year at the Queensland Music Awards on Tuesday night.
Plum's debut album Better In Blak, which was nominated for an ARIA Award in November, explored the 25-year-old Indigenous singer's battle with heartbreak, racism and sexism.
Plum recently announced her Homecoming Queen tour, which includes shows at major venues such as the UC Refectory, Canberra (June 6); Anita's Theatre, Wollongong (June 26) and Newcastle NEX (June 27).

DESIGN COMPLETE
PERTH rockers Birds Of Tokyo will release their sixth album Human Design on April 24 after the successful roll out of the singles Two Of Us, Unbreakable, The Greatest Mistakes and Good Lord.
The album is directly influenced by frontman Ian Kenny's marriage breakdown and subsequent new beginning.
