Lady GaGa set for The Simpsons

Lady GaGa will star in an episode of The Simpsons.

The wacky singer will voice herself in an episode which sees her visit Springfield and try cheer up Lisa Simpson.

“This is extraordinary! I’m stunned that she has time in her schedule that she’s coming to our studio to record,” said Yeardley Smith, who voices Lisa.

“She’s playing herself, and [the writers] describe her as the happiest, most optimistic person in the world. She comes to Springfield to try to cheer up Lisa, but she can’t.”
