She's previously admitted to being 'a little bit part of the green club' and Gaga revealed all to her fans - many of them young - as she smoked marijuana onstage.

In a video captured at her performance in Amsterdam earlier this week. The singer was seen mid-show lighting a big joint and inhaling on it during a break in the show.

Praising the 'wondrous' drug, the 26-year-old singer told fans she had cut down on drinking alcohol because she prefers smoking the substance.

Lighting up: Lady Gaga smoked marijuana while on stage in Amsterdam earlier this week

The Born This Way hitmaker revealed cannabis has helped her approach her music from a 'spiritual' perspective.

She told The Sun newspaper: 'I want you to know it has totally changed my life and I’ve really cut down on drinking.

'It has been a totally spiritual experience for me with my music.

'It’s like saying everybody needs to take a breath and it’s going to be OK.'

Paying tribute to the 'medical wonders' of marijuana, Mother Monster said she thought Amsterdam was the 'appropriate place' to tell her Little Monsters about her feelings for the drug.

Of course, in the Netherlands smoking the substance has been essentially decriminalised with the possession and purchase of cannabis tolerated in small amounts.

While some fans appreciated her honesty, many were left unimpressed by her antics.

One fan group tweeted: 'Stop Smoking Marijuana Gaga. No Drugs Just Art. @ladygaga Stop pleaser!!' (sic)

Another Twitter user posted a link adding: 'What a role model to kids ey?'

Gaga also joked that she was going to talk to US President Barack Obama in a bid to make marijuana legal in America.

The singer revealed she tested 'borderline positive' for Lupus in 2010 might well use the drug for medicinal reasons.

The eccentric singer has previously admitted to dabbling in hard drugs in the past, and explained she is now an occasional user of marijuana.

She said during a discussion with The View panel in 2011: 'I am a little bit part of the green club’.

But the New Yorker - whose real name is Stefani Germanotta - explained how she stopped using hard drugs when her father called her out.

She said: ‘My dad was like, “I know what you're doing, and just so you know, I did it and I lost every friend and everything that I ever had while I did it.”

'He shared with me his life story and his struggle, so that was what ultimately changed my life. Honestly it was the best thing that happened. I never went back.’

Addressing her fans, Gaga said: ‘There's a way to be recreational and be young and rebellious and have a good time and not hurt yourself.’

Meanwhile, the singer has been involved in a public feud with Madonna, after the Queen of Pop reportedly claimed Gaga's song Born This Way was a rip-off of her classic track Express Yourself.

But Madonna took steps to mend it on Saturday while on stage in Atlantic City. She dedicated her track Masterpiece to the younger singer and hinted she is ready to put their bad blood behind her.

'You wanna know something? I love her. I love her. I do love her. Imitation is the highest form of flattery,' she said.

'One day, very soon, we're going to be on stage together. Just you wait. You think I'm kidding? I love Lady Gaga.'

Fan of meat: Lady Gaga models another meaty dress as she performs at Taipei Nangang Exhibition Centre in Taiwan

She's not one to wear the same outfit twice, but Lady Gaga has broken this rule simply for her love of raw meat.

The 26-year-old singer modelled another outfit that appeared to be made entirely of red meat as she took to the stage in Taipei, Taiwan yesterday.

However, in line with keeping things fresh, Gaga wore a variation of the controversial outfit she shocked fans with back in 2010 and this time it was a fake.

Similar looks: The raw meat garment was in fact a corset whereas the one Gag wore in 2010 was a floor-length dress

The garment was in fact a meat corset made from fabric rather than actual animals, which she wore with matching meat skirt, ankle boots and black fishnet tights.

As she sang her well-known songs, the blonde star danced on stage surrounded by props that resembled large cuts of meat.

Gaga's fans were no doubt expecting nothing less from the hit singer, and it probably came as less of a shock as it did at the MTV Music Awards two years ago.

First time round: The singer shocked fans when she wore the unusual dress to the MTV Music Awards two years ago

The Let's Dance changed costume several times while performing to her fans in Asia, but her other outfits seems relatively normal compare to her meat dress.

As she frolicked with a male dancer and sat atop a motorbike, the slender star donned a black leather and studded bra and briefs which she teamed with knee-high lace-up boots.

She also opted for the opposite by wearing an eccentric white dress which included over-the-top shoulder pads and quilted detail.

She wore an odd mask with it too that featured horns as she danced onstage.

At one point Gaga even donned a black guitar as she sung to the audience wearing a black glittery jacket and the same PVC boots.

She also wore a light pink origami-type dress and a matching hat, and a Statue of Liberty-esque crown as she sung her number hits from her latest album Born This Way.

Following her two dates in Taiwan, Gaga will head to the Phillipines, Thailand and Singapore.

She was due to play the Gelora Bung Karno Stadium in Jarkata, Indonesia on June 3 but was forced to cancel the concert after police refused her a permit following protests by Islamic extremists.

Forgotten your bra? Lady Gaga departs from Tokyo Narita International Airport flashing a rather generous dose of flesh


It's the time of year when even the most avowed exhibitionist must reach for the Christmas jumper lest they offend the relatives around the dinner table on the most sacred family day of the year.

This is not the case, of course, for Lady Gaga, who jetted out of Narita in Japan today to head home to New York for the big day.

So far, so conventional, as was her black and white outfit (which will also be handy if I Know Him So Well from Andrew Lloyd Webber's Chess crops up during the family karaoke).


But the 25-year-old ensured that the sight of her was as arresting as always with the plunging neckline on the monochrome number.

It actually plunges right to the singer's navel to expose a just about decent amount of cleavage.

And we can only hope she wasn't required to remove her belt during the security screening.

Of course, the pop superstar - real name Stefani Germanotta - will change into something, perhaps more sober, for the big day.

The black and the white of it: Lady Gaga jetted out of Narita, Japan today to spend Christmas at home in New York


It would please her father, at least, as according to her sister Natali, 19 , he still despairs of his little girls going out in skimpy attire.

She told Teen Vogue: 'Whenever I wear something crazy and my dad gives me a hard time, I say, ‘Well, at least I’m not walking out on the street with red pasties,’ and he’ll be like, ‘Good point.’

Yesterday Gaga was spotted in the Matsuzakaya department store, in the district of Ginza, shopping at Louis Vuitton, wearing dangerous looking claw gloves.

She later ate at the Shabu Shabu restaurant in the nightclub district of Roppongi.

The Edge of Glory singer was mobbed by excited fans who'd caught wind that she was at a local restaurant.

But she was happy to sign autographs before she was quickly ushered by three burly bodyguards into a waiting limo.

Earlier, Gaga was seen wearing a dangerous all-black outfit which looked like it could take someone's eye out.

Leather Gaga: The singer was snapped filming the video for her new single Marry The Night in a strapless leather play suit in Harlem last night


In her new single she sings about throwing on some leather and going out and cruising the streets of New York.

And that's exactly what Lady Gaga decided to do as she filmed the video for her new song Marry The Night.

However, even though this is a woman who is not one to shy away from adoring herself in latex, we suspect that her choice of dancing attire may leave her feeling a little sore.

Put your paws up: Gaga throws her hands in the air as she struts her stuff

The singer was snapped strutting her stuff on the streets of New York last night in a tight leather playsuit.

The energetic dance routines, reminiscent of Michael Jackson's Thriller routine, could have left the Born This Way star feeling a little bit hot and sticky even with her resistance to chafing material.

Not that she looked as though she'd broken a sweat as she joined her backing dancers in Harlem to shoot scenes for the video.

Killer heels: Gaga, sporting a cut on her knee, manages to keep her balance on her stilettos as she throws her arms out

Working it: She has admitted to not being the greatest dancer but Gaga looked more than comfortable in front of the cameras as she performed her routine

Her hair cropped short and bleached blonde, she teamed the leather playsuit with stiletto heels which she effortlessly danced on in the middle of the road.

Pouting in her blue lipstick, she was seen crouching on the floor and being lifted in the air by one of her male dancers.

Marry The Night is the fifth single from her second album Born This Way and is due for release next month.

Meanwhile, the singer will be celebrating today after she won an injunction at London's High Court to stop animated character Lady Goo Goo from releasing a single.

The character is a baby with a long blonde fringe from the Moshi Monsters online game, which is owned by UK firm Mind Candy.

It released The Moshi Dance on YouTube - which has since been taken down - and its full release has been stopped by Gaga.

The injunction ruled that Mind Candy could not promote, advertise, sell, distribute or make the Moshi Dance available to the public.

It was also prevented from doing the same with 'any musical work or video which purports to be performed by a character by the name of Lady Goo Goo, or which otherwise uses the name Lady Goo Goo or any variant thereon'.

Mind Candy said in a statement the ruling was 'a huge disappointment' and added that it was 'pretty obvious that kids will be able to tell the difference between the two characters'.

Shake it, baby! Jennifer Lopez takes to the stage at the iHeartRadio music festival in a red tasseled outfit that flashed her famous derriere during a very vigorous dance routine


She was just one of many acts to take to the stage during the star-studded iHeartRadio music festival this weekend.

But Jennifer Lopez left her contemporaries firmly in the shade with a sexy and sassy performance showing that the much-loved pop diva is well and truly back to her booty-shaking best.

It was certainly her intention last night with the focus on her famous derriere as she took to the stage in a red feathery tasseled outfit.


The 42-year-old strutted her stuff and left her backing dancers gaping in her wake as she shook her bottom - and then flashed it to her delighted backing band.

Jennifer was performing on the second and final day of the festival, which took place at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

You go, girl! Egged on by her wolf-whistling backing dancers, Jennifer wiggled and shook her curves and tassels


She performed a red hot set that include her new single Papi, and other hits including Get Right, On The Floor, Let's Get Loud, Ain't It Funny and her classic, Jenny From The Block.

And it proved to be a busy weekend for the star who jetted in from the set of her new film Parker in Boca Raton, Florida, to perform at the event.

Red hot: The singer threw off her cape and strutted down the stairs as she launched into her set


She was one of many acts that performed at the two-day festival, including Lady Gaga, Steve Tyler, Nicki Minaj, Nicole Scherzinger, Sting and Usher.

Gaga, who headlined the concert, was her usual wacky self as she arrived on stage on a motorbike that had been built up using car and motorbike parts.

Dressed in a long leather studded coat, she teamed her look with a very wide tasseled black hat as she treated her fan-filled audience to a number of her hits, including Judas, Bad Romance and Just Dance.

She also spoke about her male alter-ego Joe Caldone and 'his' appearance at the MTV Video Music Awards last month.

Hello, boys! Jennifer can't help but smile as she looks admiringly at her muscular backing dancers


Speaking to host Elvis Duran, she said: 'Who does he think he is going on national television and speaking about my personal life like that? He’s a sucker.'

And in a rather poignant moment, she dedicated her song 'Hair' to Jamey Rodemeye, a 14-year-old boy who committed suicide after being incessantly bullied at school.

The youngster, who was from Buffalo, New York, was found dead after an apparent suicide last week having posted in a blog for months about the bullying and how people would launch gay insults at him.

Before he died, he posted a lyric from Lady Gaga's song The Queen on his Facebook page which said: 'Don't forget me when I come crying to heaven's door.'

Energetic: Gaga jumped about in the air and showed off her pole-dancing skills

Strutting her stuff: Having stripped down to a sparkly body, Gaga got raunchy with her dancers


He also Tweeted the star and wrote: 'Bye mother monster, thank you for all you have done, paws up forever.'

Fighting back tears as she dedicated her song to him, Gaga told the audience: 'I know it's a bit of a downer, but sometimes the right thing is more important than the music.

What a frill: Lady Gaga greets the crowd from the MTV studios in New York's Times Square wearing a huge white frilled netting hat

Lady Gaga left her dressed-down beach days of earlier this week far behind when she got back to work to appear on MTV in the U.S. yesterday.

The 25-year-old star rocked up to the station's New York studios in her more usual out-there attire, wearing a titanic white titfer that looked like a enormous powder puff and matching white lace dress with angular hips and netting sleeves.


Shady lady: The star waved at the the crowd watching her outside through the glass windows of the studio


She was on the station to talk about her new video You And I - as well as to announce that she would be opening the stations Video Music Awards, or VMAs, on 28 August.

Writing on her Twitter last night, she said: 'Thank you little monsters for making this week so memorable.'


Lacey lady: The grinning star lay down on stage and gave a regal wave at one point


She continued: 'I am so excited to be OPENING THE VMA'S this year. Pinch myself everyday. Pinch myself everyday. So happy you love the new video too! What a week! #Monster4Life.'

However, on last night's show, Gaga didn't reveal exactly what she has planned for her grand opening set at the bash at the Los Angeles Nokia Theatre.

The singer's plans to top that show - and the designs for what she'll be wearing - will remain shrouded in secrecy until the event.

Waspish: Lady Gaga steps out in yet another elegant dress as she showed off a black and yellow frock as she left her Los Angeles home

She might be toning down her outlandish and outrageous wardrobe but Lady Gaga is definitely not going to be headed for the knitted twin sets just yet.

Because while she may have ditched the rubber and meat and Kermit the frogs - for now - she is still making sure that she stands out from the crowd.

The singer looked very glamorous and elegant yesterday as she left her Los Angeles home in a yellow and white snakeskin dress.
