- LOS ANGELES — Singer-actress Lady Gaga has finally talked about whether she
would wear the meat dress again.
-
- During her lie detector test interview for Vanity Fair,
the 38-year-old singer was questioned about some of her career's memorable
style moments.
-
- When presented with a photograph of the controversial
meat dress she wore to the 2010 MTV VMAs, Gaga was asked if she would ever wear
raw beef as couture again, reports people.com.
-
- "I don't think so, no," she replied.
-
- The lie detector test said the results of her response
were "inconclusive," the Grammy winner said, "Oh. Well, that was
a surprise."
-
- The singer also famously asked Cher to hold her purse
made of raw meat when she went up to accept an award at the 2010 ceremony.
-
- Gaga was then asked if the moment brought her closer to
Cher, prompting Gaga to reply: "I think so. In the moment."
-
- Gaga's iconic dress, designed by Franc Fernandez and made
with actual raw meat, caused quite a tizzy on the red carpet.
-
- The "Poker Face" singer later told Ellen
DeGeneres that the dress was not meant to offend vegans and vegetarians, but
that it had “many interpretations,” one being that she isn’t a “piece of meat.”
-
- In 2015, it was reported that the dress was still owned
by Lady Gaga but that it was part of the “Women Who Rock” exhibition in the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, which was traveling around the country at the time.
-
- Jun Francisco, the Director of Collections, explained
that the dress had to be preserved like beef jerky and transported in a
climate-controlled truck. The meat was apparently “very hard” to the touch, and
was displayed alongside Gaga’s matching meat shoes.
-
- According to the Reno Gazette-Journal, the meat dress
will become part of the exhibit at the Haus of Gaga museum in Las Vegas in
2019. During a 2019 appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen,
fashion designer Brandon Maxwell, who helped style Gaga for the 2010 VMAs, said
he was a vegan at the time.
