In a heartfelt tribute to her fans, Lady Gaga has expressed profound gratitude for the overwhelming response to “Die With a Smile,” her romantic duet with Bruno Mars and her first single in two years.
On Thursday, Gaga took to social media to acknowledge the enthusiastic reception the song has received from fans worldwide. “Seeing fans from across the globe celebrate our music has been incredibly meaningful to me. It’s touching to witness how the lyrics of our song resonate with you and how the video has sparked such a wave of dancing and joy. I am truly grateful,” she wrote.
She continued with a heartfelt message, “Thank you, thank you, thank you for embracing our song. I love you all sincerely and hope that the love we’ve shared through this music continues to bring special moments into your lives—just as it does in mine every day. The power of music is immense, and your response to this song has reminded me of that.”
The duet made its debut last week at the inaugural event held at Los Angeles’s new Intuit Dome. “Die With a Smile” was released following a series of teasers, and its popularity has surged since its launch. Billboard reports that while the song’s initial performance was modest, it is now poised for a top-10 debut on the Hot 100 chart next week. The track’s streams have seen a notable increase, rising by 34 percent from Sunday to Monday alone.
