Lady Gaga made a comeback at London's iTunes festival this weekend with a set of brand-new material
Lady Gaga made a comeback at London's iTunes festival this weekend with a set of brand-new material.
The singer returned to the stage - to the pleasure of her devotees - after being curtailed by a broken hip earlier this year on her Born This Way Ball tour, telling fans at the Roundhouse:
'To say that I've missed you, it's a bit of an understatement.'
Lady Gaga treated the audience - which included Adele, former Strictly Come Dancing judge Arlene Phillips and One Direction's Niall Horan - to a 60-minute set featuring entirely new material from her new album ArtPop, including new songs like Manicure, I Wanna Be With You, Aura, Jewels & Drugs, Sex Dreams, Applause and Swine.
The provocative singer told fans to come dressed in 'bedazzled pig snouts' and 'trash bags or artclothes' ('Artclothes are clothes you don't mind getting covered in live art!' she explained to fans on Twitter before the festival).
Mother Monster wore multiple costumes during the show, including dressing up as a bandit in a black bandana and taking off her wig to show fans who she is beneath all the glitz.
'When I didn't feel strong enough to be me, I created someone else. And it worked,' Gaga told fans in the performance.
'So here I am, the human underneath the wigs.'
