Lady Gaga's Born This Way Ball poster released: The horns return

Lady Gaga's Monster Ball may be over, but the party rages on -- the Born This Way Ball begins later this year. Gaga is amping up the anticipation with a new poster, featuring the horned Born This Way look that we'd hoped she'd retired.

The poster, which is mostly in black and white, was released early Wednesday. It features nubbin-covered Gaga looking down on her kingdom from a stormy sky. Inside the castle below, she wears a piano dress and is surrounded by men in suits.

Her tattooed friend, Zombie Boy, looks out from one of the castle's windows. We're not sure why he's not allowed to hang with the gentlemen and Gaga, but we're sure there's some kind of story there. There always is.
