Lady Gaga Had to Purposely Tank Her Singing Voice for ‘Joker: Folie À Deux: ‘There’s Plenty of Bum Notes’

Lady Gaga had to purposely tank her singing voice and hit 'bum notes' in order to inhabit Harley Quinn in 'Joker: Folie À Deux.'

So, when you go see her in the upcoming Joker: Folie à Deux and notice that the singing voice of her character Harley Quinn is a bit off, it’s called acting, folks. “So I worked a lot on the way that I sang to come from Lee and to not come from me as a performer.” Gaga, who has disappeared into roles before in A Star Is Born and House of Gucci, said the task of becoming the Joker’s fiendish foil was “unlike anything I’ve ever done before.” The follow-up to 2019’s Oscar-winning Joker follows feckless comedian Arthur Fleck (Phoenix) meeting his lady love Harley Quinn (Gaga) while locked up at Arkham State Hospital.
