Lady Gaga performed for the Queen at the Royal Variety Performance and afterward had the opportunity to meet the Queen.
She had to tone it down for the performance and only wore a red PVC dress and eye glitter.
Lady Gaga said, “I wanted to do the suicide scene I did at the MTV Awards but I was told it wouldn’t be appropriate. And not only has that been vetoed, but I have to tone down my act generally. But all of that doesn’t matter because I’m a massive fan of the Queen – I was so excited and have even been practicing my curtsy.”
She performed her new ballad “Speechless” at the Opera House. She added, “When I first came up with what I was doing, I said, ‘Oh my f***ing God. It’s fabulous, I hope the Queen likes it.” (continue reading…)
Lady Gaga to sing for the Queen of England?

Lady Gaga may want to put away the skimpy clothes and don something more appropriate for this special performance. She has been invited to perform at this year’s Royal Variety Performance for the Queen herself.
Aids to the Queen are hoping that Gaga will turn into Stefani Germanotta for the event and tone it down some.
A spokesman for the palace said, “I really don’t know if the Queen or Prince Philip have listened to Lady Gaga, or are familiar with her. But the Royal Variety Performance is a well-known charitable event which they support and meet all the stars involved.”
Wild! I’m sure she is honored to play for the Queen and won’t make a mockery out of it. But, just in case, maybe they need to Google her to see what they’re in for?
