In a recent episode of the popular web series Hot Ones, Lady Gaga once again demonstrated her flair for combining high fashion with unexpected settings. The 38-year-old pop icon sat down with host Sean Evans to tackle a lineup of increasingly spicy chicken wings, all while adorned in an avant-garde ensemble from Thom Browne’s Fall 2024 couture collection.
Gaga’s outfit was nothing short of a wearable art piece. The dramatic white gown featured an elaborate sculptural floral arrangement cascading from her right shoulder, effectively immobilizing her arm. This design choice led her to quip at the start of the interview, “I’m gonna eat with one hand because I’m fashion impaired.” The ensemble, styled by Nick Royal and Peri Rosenzweig, was crafted from materials such as muslin, horsehair canvas, and crocheted yarns, creating a visual reminiscent of a dried bridal bouquet.
Throughout the interview, Gaga showcased her resilience, managing to savor each wing despite the escalating heat and her restrictive attire. She candidly discussed her songwriting process, revealing that her hit song “Born This Way” was penned in a mere ten minutes. This appearance aligns with the promotional activities for her upcoming album, Mayhem, set to release on March 7. The album’s lead single, “Abracadabra,” has already generated buzz, with its music video featuring Gaga in similarly bold white ensembles, hinting at a cohesive aesthetic theme for the project.
Gaga’s choice to don such an extravagant outfit for a hot wing challenge underscores her commitment to blending performance art with everyday scenarios, a hallmark of her illustrious career. As she continues to push artistic boundaries, fans eagerly anticipate what she will unveil next in both her music and fashion endeavors.
