A remix was released on January 1, 2014, featuring fellow pop singer Christina Aguilera, after she and Gaga performed the song on the competition series The Voice, where Aguilera was a coach.

In January 2019, a documentary called Surviving R. Kelly was released which talked about Kelly's allegedly abusive relationships with women. Gaga later regretted working with him on the song and had the album version removed from all music stores and streaming services. She also claimed that she was a supporter for Kelly's alleged victims. Other than remixes, only the Christina Aguilera version of the song is still available.[4]
