Music video
The video for the song was directed by Gaga with Bethany Vargas and its choreographer, Parris Goebel. It was compared to the video for Gaga's 2009 single "Bad Romance" due to its dark colors and high fashion and similar themes of love and death. It premiered in a commercial during Super Bowl LIX on February 9, 2025.
