The 'Venus' star is facing mounting rumours of an incident with an exotic primate during the shoot.

Lady Gaga was reportedly bitten by a Slow Loris while filming her music video for rumoured new single 'G.U.Y'.

The 'You & I' singer was allegedly on set at California Castle for a three-day shoot for the video, when the incident happened with the adorable primate, a native of South-East Asia.

"The slow loris is the cutest creature on the planet and Lady Gaga wanted to use it in one scene but it nipped her," a source told New York Post's Page Six. "She just laughed about it, she was a good sport."

Twitter exploded with comments after news of the alleged biting broke, although Gaga herself has yet to confirm whether the incident was just hearsay.
