Lady Gaga meets the Queen
Wednesday 09 December 2009
Fans definitely got their money’s worth last night after Lady Gaga managed to outdo herself during her performance at the Royal Variety Show.
Wearing a relatively modest outfit, the controversial singer spared no expense as she sang Speechless-the song she wrote to try and persuade her sick father Joseph to have heart surgery- playing a "floating" piano, which was suspended in the air on giant stilts.
Gaga, 23, surprisingly ditched her usual skimpy outfits for a bizarre red latex dress that made her resemble Elizabeth 1 in an attempt to tone down her outrageous style for the Queens’ benefit.
‘I wanted to do the suicide scene but was told it wouldn't be appropriate. I've also had to tone things down generally,’ she admitted in exclusive interview with 3am before the show.
"But it doesn't matter because I'm a massive fan of the Queen - I was so excited and have even been practicing my curtsy.’
After observing some royal protocol the American pop star got to meet the Queen herself and was pictured curtsying for her majesty.
The Royal Variety Show showcased a host of celebrity acts last night in its return to Blackpool for the first time in 54 years.
The line-up included performances from this years Britain’s got talent winners, Diversity, X factor winner Alexandra Burke and teen pop star, Miley Cyrus.
Alex, 21, choose the night to show off her newly improved abs after dropping 3 dress sixes whilst Miley, 17, strutted herself onstage in revealing hotpants.
The queen looked stunning in a black gown and shawl, designed by Angela Kelly as she arrived at the gala event with Prince Philip- where she had been entertained by Morecambe & Wise and Arthur Askey on her last visit.
The show will air on ITV1 on December 16.

You'd think GaGa would sort her roots out knowing she'd be bowing before the Queen. The girl is a walking joke.

Well done indeed to lady Gaga who acts like a true lady by bowing down in front of the queen and not looking the Queen straight into the eyes! The spooky queen meets the Queen!
On the other hand, Alexandra Barf Burke looks like ghetto trash! There's no need for her guts to be hanging out in front of the Queen!
In fact there's no need for her guts and crotch to be hanging out in front of anybody if she has the right amount of talent to show off!
