There are extra all in a fantasy world where nothing is forbidden
Lady Gaga offers a concert that exudes sex, poise and artistry.
The result is a show so spectacular that the tear ducts open up.
I was expecting a spectacular evening. A sparkling show. A feast of costume changes and lavish pyrotechnics. After all, Lady Gaga we're talking about.
The same Gaga that changed popular culture, redefined the concept of maximalism and spawned a fan base as loyal and convinced that it almost resembles a political movement.
The concert, the second in a row at the Globe, is not what I expected. It becomes much more than that.
After just 15 minutes, while "Born this way" kicks off, I start to cry.
Tears run on the cheeks, for I can not remember the last time I saw something so perfect and straight-in-the-heart-strong. It feels like being sucked into a fantasy world where everything is allowed and no surprises.
The 26-year-old singer may be short in her coat, but her revelation fills the globe - from the first to the last moment.
The show begins with Gaga riding onto the stage on a big, black horse, which marks the start of a string of powerful numbers.
Gaga's show is a mix of a spectacle, a moving art installation and a concert.
At one moment she forgives pours himself out of a giant vagina, to later be sucked down into the meat grinder.
In between, she plays with a unicorn, turns a motorcycle into a piano and hovering on the scene as a powerful Snow Queen.
All this with a gothic castle in the background with a hologram on the ceiling is set design.
Playing with her "monster"
It's a bombastic performance that oozes "extra everything", and the coolest thing is that Lady Gaga never fumbles removed itself from all effects.
The voice cast, even in the most demanding choreographies, and the star has complete control, as she allows herself to be spontaneous and play with the audience, or "little monsters" as they are called.
Reading love letters on stage
In a small talk gets a little Christmas Eve on stage when she opens the package from fans and read aloud from their loving letter.
As most shining singer and her 15 or so dancers in poise number "Bad Romance" and in the elegant live arrangement of "Alejandro". Tonight Lady Gaga proves that she is not just a pop star, but one of the music world's top artists.
