Lady Gaga Smashes the Opening Night of the Joanne World Tour
Lady Gaga’s long expected “Joanne World Tour” has finally kicked off on August 1 in Vancouver after Gaga’s agonizing over every detail from the look of the stage and the lights to which hair colour would best be accepted by Little Monsters as she calls her fans.
She recently told Billboard that this tour will look like nothing we’ve seen before. She definitely didn’t disappoint her Little Monsters and has put on a jaw-dropping show!
You can get a glimpse of her extravagant display yourselves if you purchase tickets here and visit any of her upcoming concerts.
A multiplatform main stage is shape-shifting just like the singer herself, lighting pods hanging from the ceiling become video screens and later descent to become catwalks giving Gaga and her dancers bridges so they can spread on smaller platforms across the arena.
She looked pretty epic when she hit the stage with the opening theme “Diamond Heart” with a ten-gallon hat and a pair of spurs, and lot of her fans said yee-haaaaw. Magazines report that between all the costume changes and props, she used 550,000 Swarovski crystals. Her outfits include a crystal-encrusted bodysuit, a custom made black Alexander Wang fringe leather suit, red Norma Kamali sleeping bag-style coat and a pair of Guiseppe Zanotti ankle boots with a crystal strap. She has done everything to surprise and amaze us.
Gaga left the Canadian audience speechless from the moment she stepped on the stage until the very end. She performed 22 hits and the crowd was treated with live debut of the track “Dancing in Circles”.
She promised to continue to unveil new live versions of songs as the tour progresses. The show was filled with artful stage work, pyro, epic choreography and a tribute to LGBTQ community, everything we expected from this singer who has built her career on out-there showmanship bordering on performance art.
Joanne World Tour is the fifth headlining concert tour in support of Gaga’s fifth album Joanne released in 2016. The tour launched on August 2, 2017 in Vancouver, Canada and is scheduled to end on December 18, 2017, in Inglewood, United States. This 60-date-tour across North America, South America and Europe is supported by Live Nation. First US leg of the tour started in Tacoma on August 5, so don’t miss out your favourite singer and purchase tickets here.
Live Nation also announced that $1 of every sold ticket for the US shows would be given to Gaga’s Born This Way Foundation.
