Lady Gaga's new album 2013 ARTPOP has been surrounded by intense anticipation, hype and a few questions. Earlier this month, Mother Monster announced the release date of her new album, smart phone app and single. Several days later, the name of the first single, "Applause," was unveiled via Gaga's social network site littlemonsters.com.
With an app, a single and a highly anticipated album on the way, Gaga has taken to her official Twitter account to clear up details surrounding the multiple releases and the rollout for ARTPOP.
Beginning by responding to little monster @HausOfLenise, Gaga confirmed that the ARTPOP app will be available for both Apple and Android users.
Yes available on ITUNES & GooglePlay RT @HausOfLenise: @ladygaga girl, thank you very much for making available the artpop app for Androids

Mother Monster then cleared up some questions on how, exactly, the app will function, its price and whether or not music can be downloaded directly from the source or iTunes. (Answer: both ways work just fine.)
The ARTPOP app is Free, available in App Stores on your device. You can purchase the music through the ARTPOP app once it's downloaded. — Lady Gaga (@ladygaga) July 31, 2013
Or you can purchase the album at the music store+download the free app separately at the app store. -GAGA

The app will also be available regardless of location, allowing fans all over the world to go "gaga" for ARTPOP.

But, brick-and-mortar fans have nothing to worry about, either. ARTPOP will also be released as a good ol' fashioned CD.
Yes RT@WesleyJvonRoy: @ladygaga will we still be able to get the PHYSICAL copy of ARTPOP in stores?
— Lady Gaga (@ladygaga) July 31, 2013
Gaga then elaborated on, what, exactly the ARTPOP app is. By some surface tweets, it seems like a phone-capable extension of littlemonsters.com, allowing fans to interact with one another and the music and artwork of Gaga's third LP.
The APP is in essence, an interactive jewel case. -GAGA — Lady Gaga (@ladygaga) July 31, 2013

On Sunday, July 28, Lady Gaga announced: "Due to public anticipation ITUNES will now offer preorder for ARTPOP album/app AUG 19 the same day you can purchase my new single 'Applause,'" both confirming the release date for the application and the official name for the new song. Today (July 31), Gaga elaborated on how, exactly, an app pre-order will work.

Finally, it wouldn't be Lady Gaga news without a hint of song lyrics and a tease for a music video.
