Lady Gaga’s iconic track “Bad Romance” isn't just a global phenomenon — it's a cornerstone of pop culture that deeply resonated with New Zealand music fans. Since its release, this electrifying anthem has influenced everything from Kiwi nightlife to local fashion and performance art.

From Wellington drag stages to Auckland’s dancefloors, Gaga’s fusion of theatrical visuals, edgy choreography, and powerful vocals in “Bad Romance” inspired a new generation of Kiwi creatives. The music video’s high-concept aesthetic helped push boundaries for visual storytelling, aligning with New Zealand’s own growing appetite for genre-bending music and visual art.

As Aotearoa’s music and fashion scenes continue to evolve, the influence of international icons like Lady Gaga remains a key touchstone. Whether you're a longtime Little Monster or a local artist drawing inspiration from her artistry, this is the video that redefined pop for a generation — including right here in NZ.
