At the time, with only a year of Gaga under our belt, we clearly thought this was as weird as it could get. Jess called it "futuristic prom rave murder sparkle cable installation." I look at it now and think there's some really lovely work in it -- the dress reminds me of the light echo left in the air when you whip a sparkler around -- and yet also that this was her transporter back to her home planet.

First, though, her labia had to perform.

I can't remember why she and Elton John had to look like they just survived a building collapse. I assume... art.

Did the seat behind her come with an insurance waiver?
