Lady Gaga-Salma Hayek Sex Scene Cut From ‘House of Gucci’

Another day, another wild story from Lady Gaga‘s House of Gucci press tour. According to a recent Q&A, Gaga revealed that she pushed for a sex scene between her character, Patrizia Reggiani, and Salma Hayek‘s Giuseppina “Pina” Auriemma.

Pina becomes Patrizia’s friend and psychic early on in the film, and later helps plot the murder of Patrizia’s husband, Maurizio Gucci (Adam Driver). During the Q&A, Gaga explained that while she pitched the idea of the two women taking their relationship to the next level after Maurizio’s death to director Ridley Scott, their sex scene ultimately didn’t make the final cut.

“There’s a whole side of this film that you did not see, where Pina and I developed a sexual relationship,” Gaga said. “Director’s cut, who knows. This is a testament to [Ridley Scott] as a director because he allowed us to go there, and I remember being on set with Salma and going, ‘So after Maurizio dies, maybe it gets hot?’ And she was like, ‘What are you talking about?'”

“You think she’s kidding,” Hayek said. According to Variety, she added that House of Gucci audiences didn’t get to see all of the two women’s moments together as “two girls from a different class, kind of going at this big world.”

Fingers crossed for a House of Gucci extended edition!
