'Joker 2' Star Lady Gaga's 'Harlequin' Album Arrives Friday. Here's What to Know

Lady Gaga fans, get ready: Two new albums from the pop megastar are on the horizon. And one of them is set to drop this week. 

Gaga, who plays Harley Quinn opposite Joaquin Phoenix's Joker in Joker: Folie et Deux (which lands in theaters on Friday, Oct. 4), has announced a soundtrack for the highly anticipated sequel. The companion piece, titled Harlequin, is scheduled for release on Friday. Harlequin preorder details are now live.

This news surprised fans awaiting the release of Gaga's seventh studio album. The Poker Face singer has been teasing something mysterious on social media recently, posting vague messages to Instagram like, "Moondust gets everywhere" in one post and "Don't tell me what to wear" in another. 

Earlier in the week, billboards began popping up in Los Angeles and New York referencing the number 6.5, leading many to view this as an interim album until her next full-length studio album hits.

Gaga's Harlequin announcement blew up social media. The posts tease the album cover art, which shows the Star Is Born actress looking quite serious as she stands drenched in the shower fully clothed. They include the complete list of songs as well. At least, that's what many have deduced from the image of a milk carton from the fictional brand Gayle Valley Farms.

One look at the Harlequin track list and it's easy to deduce that the new album will feature updated covers of classic jazz standards. Here's the complete list:

Information about Lady Gaga's seventh album -- or LG7 as it's been called -- has yet to hit. In the meantime, Harlequin (or LG6.5) is coming to satisfy the appetites of Little Monsters everywhere.
