Where there's Gaga, there's controversy!

The outrageous pop star taped her American Idol appearance of "Alejandro" last week and it ran about 6 1/2 minutes... but for last night's results show, it got cut down to 5 minutes and 20 seconds.

Apparently an "extended, ballad-y version" of "Bad Romance," a "few stray shots of Gaga's posterior" and, to note, editors blurred her left breast during the "Alejandro" chorus, all according to MTV News. Check out AI's version above - we still think it's pretty sinful as is!

In other Idol news, the singing competition show rakes in $8.1 million in ad sales every 30 minutes it's on the air. This makes it TV's biggest revenue generator, reports The Hollywood Reporter. No surprise there! But what'll happen next year when Simon leaves the show?
