When divas of two generations will team up, it's the greatest thing -- in this case, literally!
Yes, Lady Gaga and Cher are slated to release a single called The Greatest Thing, which comes out next month, the first track off Cher’s upcoming album.
Cher tweeted Tuesday, "Can hardly wait 4 GT 2 Come Out! Was XCITED 'Bout Making New cd, But Wasn't Expecting BIG Surprises...& THEN...... SURPRISE ! GAGA ! DUET !"
The trendsetters first crossed paths at last year's MTV Video Music Awards, with Cher giving Gaga the video of the year honors.
Gaga tweeted Tuesday: "Who knew a year ago when I was crying in her arms after she gave me an award, that today we would record a duet. @Cher You are The Greatest."
Fun fact: Gaga was born March 28, 1986; two days later, Cher famously wore an uber-sexy, Bob Mackie-designed, beaded black two-piece dress, with a 2-foot-high headpiece, to the Academy Awards.
