Royal encounter: Lady Gaga bows to the Queen after the Royal Variety Performance in Blackpool
Blackpool has certainly never seen anything like the performance Lady GaGa put on at the Royal Vareity Show last night - and for all her years and travels, it's unlikely the Queen has either.
The American singer famed for her crazy collection of outfits managed to outdo herself as she appeared on stage in a red latex outfit dressed as Elizabeth I.
GaGa wore a long dress, complete with intricate ruffle and plus outlandish sparkly eye make-up and lipstick for an astonishing performance featuring a huge Dali-style piano.

It was the highlight of an amazing night as the Royal Variety Show returned to Blackpool for the first time in 54 years.
On that occasion Morecambe & Wise and Arthur Askey had entertained Her Majesty and Prince Philip. This time, as well as GaGa, the bill included X Factor winner Alexandra Burke and teenage star Miley Cyrus.
GaGa arrived on stage to close the show with a 20ft train trailing behind the dress.
She was helped on to a chair attached to a chain and hoisted 30 feet in the air to play a piano which was supported by legs that look very similar to those supporting the giant elephants in the Salvador Dali painting, The Temptation Of St Anthony.
