Lady
Gaga
"Glastonbury Festival"
Worthy Farm, Pilton, Glastonbury, Somerset, UK
26th June 2009
(Proshot DVD)
|
Her
dancing, bizarre mid-song banter and costumes (including
a boob flamethrower!) provided at least as much entertainment
as her music.

What happened: What didn't? Gaga's one-hour set
combined festival pomp, pop precision, weird banter ("I
used to go to festivals, get naked and take acid") and
her waving her naked backside in front of 50,000 people.
It was banan-ass. Of course, having sold as many records
as anyone on the bill this year, and with a dress sense
as large as her popularity, Stefani Germanotta was always
bound to be on to a winner with a crowd starved of stage
presence by the indie bands on show on the Other stage.
She didn't disappoint; her dancing, bizarre mid-song banter
and costumes (including a boob flamethrower!) providing
at least as much entertainment as tracks like The Fame,
Just Dance and recent single Paparazzi.

Where and when: Other stage, 8pm
Dress code: Where to start? Lady G wore five costumes
including Union Jack-branded bondage/biker gear, a see-through
bubble coat, a glass dress that made her look like Paul
Stanley's mirror guitar and others too fruity to describe
in detail here.
Who's watching: The Lily Allen crowd – and those
expecting some entertainment/a car crash. They got the former.
High point: Gaga writhing around a piano playing
snippets of Poker Face. At one point she was almost upside
down. Plus, the inevitable singalong when she sang the No
1 single for real.
Low point: During an impassioned speech about the
paparrazzi, Gaga seemed to think it was July. That and the
backing track doing much of the vocal leg work.
In a Tweet: Pop madness/brilliance from a performer
at home in front of the huge crowds.
