Never missing an opportunity to provoke, Lady Gaga announced a few weeks ago that she was planning to release a fragrance based on the scent of blood and semen. While we don’t doubt some Gaga fans might want to smell like a crack den, little monsters that they are, we assume most mall shoppers will steer clear of the bodily concoction.

Lady Gaga now sets the record straight, saying on Australian radio, “No, no, no. Actually the perfume smells like an expensive hooker. I wanted to extract sort of the feeling and sense of blood and semen from molecular structures, so that’s where [the rumors] came from and that is in the perfume but it doesn’t smell like that.” We’re still unsure about a fragrance that’ll make you want to get tested for hepatitis C, but we’ll see if the little monsters bite.
