The Monster Ball

lady-gaga-hbo-posterI didn’t have a chance to get tickets to Lady Gaga’s undoubtedly spectacular live tour The Monster Ball, so I wasn’t going to miss this HBO special, recorded on her last Madison Square Garden’s performance.

As expected, the show was fun to watch and a treat for both eyes and ears.  Amazingly, she never even took a break, singing song after song for almost 2 hours!!

Everything, from costumes to accessories, from lighting to props, was perfectly tailored to Gaga’s extravaganza style and larger-than-life persona.

Her many interactions with her fans, whom she lovingly refers to as her Little Monsters, were precious insights into this basically simple girl out to ensure they had a great time and got what they paid for.

Lady Gaga is really a spectacular talent.  Her voice and musical prowess are truly godly gifts.

Here’s her rendition of Born This Way, sung a cappella, which closed the special:
