Just last week President Obama visited with his old buddy, Russian President Dmitri Medvedev at the White House. In an overt effort to demonstrate how he had single-handedly "repaired" the relationship between Russia and the United States, President Obama took the Russian leader out for lunch to a Washington, D.C.-area suburban hamburger joint. The whole event was overly staged and awkward.

What a difference a week makes.

This week it was announced an alleged Russian spy ring had had been caught "red-handed" here in the United States. The ring is accused of operating for years in "deep cover" here in America.

The 10 who were arrested were operating throughout the United States and used tried and true Cold War techniques in their mission, including -- but not limited to -- sending messages in invisible ink, using Morse code, and brush passes.

The alleged spies are charged with working for Russian military intelligence also known as the SVR. Their mission is still to be fully detailed; however the FBI says they sought to establish ties with congressional aides and scientists who work on nuclear weapons development.

Our government intercepted a message from Russian intelligence headquarters in Moscow to two of those arrested. "You were sent to USA for long-term service trip," the message from Moscow. "Your education, bank accounts, car, house etc. -- all these serve one goal: fulfill your main mission, i.e. to search and develop ties in policymaking circles in U.S. and send intels..." the message added.

How is it possible that the White House, the National Security Council, our intelligence services and U.S. Justice Department let the president play host to Russia's president within less than a week of these arrests?

Lady Gaga is such a mistress of disguise, it's often hard to recognize her.

Enter Jo Calderone, SHOWStudio.com's newest male model, a sexy brunette with a classic look and a possible pop music career on the side.

The brooding brown-haired looker bears a remarkable resemblance to Gaga, whose middle name is Joanne, leading many to speculate that the photos are in fact of the "Alejandro" singer in drag.

British photographer Nick Knight shot the fashion spread, which will reportedly appear in the September issue of Vogue Hommes Japan.

But, more importantly, the shoot was styled by the magazine's fashion director, Nicola Formichetti, who also happens to be Gaga's stylist.

Recent tweets by the pop star's pal Perez Hilton are adding fuel to the rumors that Jo is in fact Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta.
