Lady Gaga: 10 Most Outrageous Outfits
1. Meat Dress/Bikini The meat dress and bikini would have to be the most outrageous and controversial outfit Lady Gaga has concocted. She took the stage and a Vogue photo shoot in nothing but a bunch of animal flesh. I will openly admit - it made me hungry, yes hate on me vegetarians and PETA. Franc Fernandez an Argentinian designer created both the meat dress and bikini along with many of Gaga's other outfits. The dress is comprised of real meat (Argentinean beef) it is accompanied by a meat hat and purse as well as platform shoes also covered in the meat and butcher twine. The meat bikini was created first for the Vogue cover - the meat dress was designed afterwards for the MTV Video Music Awards. MTV interviewed Fernandez - here are some interesting facts about the meat dress: The dress weighed forty pounds on; It did not leave a blood trail and was not treated with any preservatives; It didn't stink, it had a sweet smell. It hadnt been sitting out for more than five hours; It's a dress that will dry out, rather than rotting it becomes jerky; There was a corset but the rest of it was meat on skin. Lady Gaga debuted the meat dress at the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards and then wore it on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show." Her motivation to wear this controversial outfit however had nothing to do with animal cruelty she was campaigning at the time in support of repelling "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," she explained to Ellen DeGeneres that the dress represented equality, saying "equality is the prime rib of America." "Well, it is certainly no disrespect to anyone that is vegan or vegetarian. As you know, I am the most judgement-free human being on the Earth. However, it has many interpretations. For me this evening, if we dont stand up for what we believe in and if we dont fight for our rights pretty soon, were going to have as much rights as the meat on our own bones. And, I am not a piece of meat." The meat bikini was featured on Vogue Hommes Japan's September issue, it prompted a strong reaction by PETA, which said in a statement: "No matter how beautifully it is presented, flesh from a tortured animal is flesh from a tortured animal. Meat represents bloody violence and suffering, so if that's the look they were going for -- they achieved it." During Gaga's concert in Philadelphia, she expressed her thoughts over the controversy the outfits caused. "Next time I'll wear a tofu dress and the soybean police will come after me." What outfits do you think should have made the list?
