Lady Gaga is showing up for Bruno Mars in more ways than one.
Months after the two superstars joined forces on hit duet “Die With a Smile,” Gaga makes a surprise cameo alongside Blackpink’s Rosé in the spicy music video for Mars’ NSFW new single with Sexyy Red.
The graphic song, titled “Fat, Juicy & Wet”, is a wild and edgy new ode to the female anatomy, on which Mars supplies the catchy hook as Sexyy Red energetically fills the verses with her signature envelope-pushing rap lyrics.
In the video, the two flirt and dance suggestively with one another, set against one red-colored backdrop after another. In one scene, Mars drives a boat as Sexyy Red cozies up next to him. In another, he’s dressed as a janitor mopping up a floor as bubbles fill the air.

Shortly after Sexyy Red shows off some impressive flexibility, four silhouettes appear before the lights go up revealing Mars and the rapper have been joined by Lady Gaga and Rosé, along with an unsuspecting feline friend.
Cloaked in red fur and wearing a red wig, Gaga struts her stuff for the camera and slides on the floor during solo takes. In other scenes she’s shown partying alongside Mars, Sexyy Red and Rosé as they pop champagne and show off their twerking skills.
The star even joins in on the refrain, singing “Do it Sexyy, do it Sexyy, do it!”

The new song and video seem a world apart from the romantic power ballad Gaga and Mars released last August.
The song recently rose to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart where it remains, and is currently up for song of the year and best pop duo/group performance at the Grammys, airing Feb. 2.
Rosé is also a recent Mars collaborator, having teamed up with him on their playful pop single “APT.” which has reached No. 5 on the Billboard 100, holding that spot at the same time as his Gaga collab tops the chart.

Though he and Gaga are still making magic together, Mars recently revealed his excitement about putting out this new sound with Sexyy Red.
“THANK YOU ALL! I’m headed to the studio right now to make a strip club anthem so I can celebrate and properly act up this weekend,” he wrote on Instagram this week, adding, “Someone please help me get in touch with Sexyy Red!”
