iHeartRadio Music Festival: Lady GaGa

For those of you who don't know, iHeartRadio held their end of summer musical extravaganza this past Friday and Saturday night.  The list of performers included Coldplay, Steven Tyler, Jennifer Lopez, Sublime, Sting, Nicki Minaj and many many more.  Of course there was one artist in particular that everyone was waiting for: GaGa.  Lady GaGa was honored by being the artist to not only close out the festival, but she also got a one hour set unlike everyone else who only got about twenty minutes or so.  In many ways this can be seen as a precursor to her upcoming Born This Way Ball tour because the concert was basically a mini-show.  I loved every minute of it, and GaGa did an amazing job like always.  She not only performed her hits, but also many songs off 'Born This Way' including 'Scheiße', 'Hair' and the outro was 'Heavy Metal Lover'.  The highlights of the night had to be the 'Hair' performance and the 'Stand By Me' duet with Sting.  GaGa dedicated 'Hair' to her Little Monster, Jamey, who took his own life last weekend as a result of bullying.  It was a very emotional performance and just another reason as to why I love this woman so much.  The 'Stand By Me' performance with Sting was great because it shows just how versatile her voice is and the power two great vocalists have when they perform together.  All in all it was a great show.  Below I've included her entire set so take a gander!
