A rising star in the music world had the amazing opportunity to work with the iconic Elton John on a spectacular and memorable performance at a major event in 2010.
Lady Gaga is making headlines as she gears up to make history as the first artist to appear on three major American television events in one year – the Super Bowl, Grammy Awards, and the Oscars. This impressive accomplishment showcases Gaga’s incredible success in the music industry.
It’s hard to forget her unforgettable Grammys debut five years ago, where she wowed the crowd by opening the show with the iconic Elton John. Lady Gaga’s endless creativity and talent never fail to amaze us as she constantly pushes herself to new heights and leaves a lasting impact on the entertainment industry.
hen the big day came, Gaga had already released a new edition of her debut album The Fame as The Fame Monster, including new hits like “Bad Romance,” “Telephone” (featuring Beyoncé), and “Alejandro.” Her mesmerizing show played into the themes of fame and stardom that connected her Fame and Fame Monster eras.
Elijah Kelley, famous for his performance in Hairspray, kicked off the show by portraying the Emcee in Sally Bowles. In a unique concept, a pop-up factory churns out clones of Lady Gaga, prompting Kelley to go on a mission to uncover the genuine article among the impersonators.
As he dances and sings through a vibrant musical sequence in pursuit of the real Lady Gaga, Kelley highlights her standout characteristics, like her array of chart-topping singles and her quirky talent for pogo sticking. He humorously quips that she’s so one-of-a-kind that she must be missing a soul, making her even more extraordinary.
Decked out in a glitzy green outfit, Gaga graces the stage to belt out her hit track “Poker Face.” Sporting a bold look with hot pink upside-down triangle designs around her eyes, she kicks off her performance on the keys before diving into a pumped-up dance-pop rendition.
In a surprising turn of events, Kelley barges in, accusing Gaga of wreaking havoc on his establishment with her tunes. He even goes as far as labeling her a “beast” before harshly tossing her into a fiery pit meant for the spurned performers.
Gaga is back in the spotlight, teaming up with Elton John as they sit side by side at a grand piano covered in a layer of ash.
With a sense of assurance, she announces, “Hollywood, take note of this moment,” before launching into a charming duet that combines Elton John’s timeless hit “Your Song” with her own emotional ballad “Speechless” from the popular album, Fame Monster.
“I yearn to radiate like a genuine star!” Gaga declares with passion.
