Lady Gaga is getting her own TV special on the CW, which will consist of her sitting down with Jean Paul Gaultier in his Paris atelier and talking about clothes, her relationship with her fans, and her control over her image. Gaga By Gaultier will air on September 12, and immediately following the special, there will be a 45-minute show promoting the rest of the fall season on the network.

At least I can get a new dress every day!” [Us]
