Lady Gaga was the rare singer-turned-actress to launch a movie career to almost universal acclaim and awards attention. Has the “Joker” sequel misfire ruined all of that?

Joker: Folie à Deux' director Todd Phillips said he removed Lady Gaga's same-sex kiss scene because he 'wanted it to be more of a music and vibe moment' instead.

Many fans of Lady Gaga have expressed disappointment on social media following the release of “Joker: Folie à Deux” as it appears a few scenes Gaga shot for the film did not end up making it into the final theatrical cut.
