I wonder if they were as rowdy as the people at MetLife.
Gaga is opening with Bad Romance in a custom Gareth Pugh creation thats basically like a high-fashion cocoon.
God, I love when she doesweird.

Shes now emerging from the cocoon for Just Dance.
Love when an artist opens a concert with their older hits.
She keeps telling the crowd to put their fucking hands up!
I remember dutifully obeying her orders in the crowd.
Her vocals are vocal-ing.
These days, its honestly rare for pop stars to sound betterlivethan they do on the record.
On to Poker Face.
Lets take a moment for her backup dancers and choreography.
Her dancers are not missing abeat.
I love how fast and synchronized the movements are.
You almost dont even notice themwhich means theyre killing it, obviously.
Now were transitioning into Act I.
This is where Gaga starts singing some of herChromaticahits.
Thanks to this album, the living room became my club.
Gaga is singing Alice while perched on a concrete slab, wearing a custom red look by Tops Studio.
Very futuristic, very avant-garde,veryGaga.
Its time for Replaymy favorite song of the album!
She sheds her red cape to reveal a bloodied latex bodysuit from Vex and Yummy Gummy Latex.
Such a gag-worthy reveal.
Again, Gaga demands, Put your fucking hands up!
I am from my living room.
Im shook whenever the cameras pan to the audience.
She is part of an elite few performers who can draw a crowd like this.
On to Act II.
The interlude videos, from her longtime collaborator Nick Knight, areart.
I love that no details were overlooked in this show.
Shes performing 911 in a black sharp-shouldered latex top from Sinrgy.
Pop a 911 and then pop another one.
Ugh, such a good line.
Also, themusic videofor this song is so goodplease do yourself a favor and watch it.
Imagine if she had brought out Blackpink to perform their song Sour Candy together?
I would have passed out.
Its interesting that Gaga didnt bring out any special guests for this tour.
Then again, does she need to?
Shes now performing Telephone.
Shereplied, Whenever Beyonce calls, Id like to pick up the phone.
Im obsessed with her lead pianist, Brockett Parsonsspecifically, the circular piano that he is playing.
In the world of Gaga, nothing can be normal.
On to Act III.
Gaga and her dancers are all coming out in gold for Babylon.
Her gold suit is by Alexander McQueen.
This song is so camp.
Shes telling us to dance through our pain.
You better werk tonight, L.A. Roger that!
I could listen to a whole remix track of Gaga just saying, Thats gossip.
I find myself using it in everyday sentences.
Am I late on filing this story?
I wonder what the wardrobe budget was for this performance.
More than my net worth, thats for sure.
Shes now singing Born This Way on the piano, and saying its time to celebrate your pride.
I remember getting super emotional when I heard this live.
Gaga has done so much for the LGBTQ+ community and she always creates a safe space at her shows.
Youre perfect with a capital P. No,youare.
Oh, shit, shes now picking up the pace and doing full dance choreo.
Huge flames are bursting out from the stage.
Were on to Act IV, and this is the more slowed-down, piano-focused portion of the evening.
Her Dead Lotus Couture bodysuit and alien-like headpiece are just so good.
Shes singing Shallow fromA Star Is Born.
Everyone has their iPhone flashlights up.
IM OFF THE DEEP END, WATCH AS I DIVE IN.
I practically lost my voice screaming these lyrics at the concert.
Gagas taking a moment to talk about getting through the pandemic together.
The whole world did not fade; were all still here.
I cant stress enough how much her albumand music in generaluplifted people back in 2020.
Thats the power of art, baby.
One thing I love about Gaga is shes always going to make a political statement, too.
Gagas dancing and skipping her way off the stage to Enigma.
This song doesnt get enough credit.
One of my favorites offChromatica.
Time for the finale act!
Im sad its almost over.
Shes back in a custom Alexander McQueen biker look with crystals all over it to sing Stupid Love.
The choreo in this performance is soheavy; I would be out of breath by the first chorus.
And yet, the vocals are still on point.
I wonder how one trains for this.
Singing on the treadmill?
Singing while doing jumping jacks?
Im exhausted just thinking about it.
The big, dramatic flames are back.
I wonder if anyone lost their eyebrows that night.
Im sad Ariana Grande didnt come out for Rain On Me.
That would have broken the internet.
At least we got that one live VMAs performance from them.
She ends the show with Hold My Hand, her song fromTop Gun: Maverick.
Its definitely an epic, belt-your-heart-out song to cap things off with.
We see a flash of a caption: LG7: Gaga Returns.
Is this a track on her next album (which would be her seventh, hence LG7)?
The lyrics sounded something like dance in the shadow.I have so many questions!
You cant leave us on this cliffhanger, Gaga!
