The music video portrays themes of fame and celebrity death over 8 minutes. It follows a narrative of Lady Gaga's character as a pop star pursued by paparazzi. Her boyfriend betrays her by setting up the paparazzi to photograph them, and later pushes her off a balcony. She is then shown at events in extravagant outfits until poisoning and killing her boyfriend. The video ends with her mugshot, concluding the "movie-like" narrative.
