Lady Gaga will be performing at Coachella music festival this year, and this news makes us really really happy.

Yes, we're gutted Beyoncé had to pull out of the Coachella line-up, but she's having twins so we totally get it. Anyway, she has confirmed she'll be headlining in 2018 - so there's always that!

Lady Gaga made the Coachella news official last night by tweeting an updated lineup poster and the caption "Let's party in the desert!"

Bring. It. On.

Lady Gaga will headline both weekends which officially makes her the busiest popstar of 2017. After the Super Bowl performance last month, the Joanne World Tour which kicks off in August, she's going to be cream crackered by Christmas.

According to Billboard it was important to Coachella organisers that a female performer replace Beyoncé, making Gaga the first woman to headline Coachella since Björk in 2007.

Perhaps one of her best looks EVER, Gaga opted for this epic, super sculptural gown by Christopher John Rogers, and paired it with – of course – her signature Pleaser boots. We bow down, Gaga.

Continuing what we're now confirming is her best week in fashion (too bold?), Lady Gaga brought the drama once more on Wednesday evening when she returned to Radio City Music Hall for night two of her special shows with legend Tony Bennett. The bubble sleeves and billowing skirt of this periwinkle blue Loewe look will have us swooning for a long time yet...

While the pinstripe suit is epic, our eyes are firmly on the accessories thanks to those cat-eye Valentino sunglasses and hidden sky-high platforms.

Perhaps one of our favourite Gaga looks EVER (and there have been a few...), the icon wore a floral Richard Quinn kaftan from the AW21 collection and we've been swooning ever since.

Utterly angelic, Gaga killed it in this knitted Lanvin look complete with the brand's iconic Hobo Bag for a stroll earlier this week.

The balls of our feet are burning just looking at these platforms, but - naturally - Gaga made her way around New York in them without so much as flinching. Side note: are metallic tights making a comeback?

She may be known for her epic fashion statement, but no one does a simple black dress quite like Lady Gaga.

The star opted for a custom Schiaparelli Haute Couture look designed by Daniel Roseberry - which comprised of a navy, cashmere fitted jacket offset with a red silk skirt and gilded dove of peace brooch - for her performance at President-Elect Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris' inauguration.

Back to her best, Lady Gaga arrived at the AT&T TV Super Saturday Night in Miami recently in head-to-toe sequins and a blue wig.

Gaga went full, well, Gaga as she hosted the launch of her own beauty line, Haus Laboratories, at Barker Hangar in California.
If anyone can pull off a pleated, gold lame shirt during daylight hours it's our girl Gaga. Naturally she paired it with some six inch platform boots.
Lady Gaga's fashion sense was made for Pride, as she proved in New York for the parade earlier this summer.
Never one to shy away from a sartorial performance, Gaga had three other outfits hiding beneath this fuchsia masterpiece on the Met Gala red carpet. Swoon.

Lady Gaga opted for a custom bustier dress in black silk faille by Alexander McQueen, with engineered corset seaming and black leather gloves at the 2019 Oscars, but it was the diamond hanging around her neck that stole the show. One of the world's most famous stones, the yellow diamond was first worn by Mary Sheldon Whitehouse at the 1957 Tiffany Ball in Newport, Rhode Island. Audrey Hepburn was then granted permission to wear the diamond for publicity photographs for her iconic role in Breakfast at Tiffany's.

We didn't think it was possible, but Lady Gaga's short shorts just got even shorter. She pulls it off.

For a casual outing in Manhattan, Lady Gaga's outfit was cowgirl meets Reese's Peanut Buttercups. We're confused, too.

For the 2017 Grammy Awards, Gaga wore a dramatic look composed of a spiky, structured top (made from zip-ties!) which showed off some major underboob, with some PVC shorts and thigh-high platform boots.

Lady Gaga stepped out in Tokyo ahead of the US elections wearing a crazy tulle dress with layers and layers of ruffles. The singer added a large badge saying 'VOTE' to her hat while an unpinned corset trailed behind her dress. Many have noted this as a reference to the work of feminist writer Charlotte Perkins Gilman.

Lady Gaga arrived in Japan wearing an all black outfit with massive black sleeves. The singer also added a cowgirl hat (which she's been favouring of late - see below).
For an outfit in New York, Lady Gaga could have been mistaken for a maid of honour wearing a baby pink dress, complete with a flower-adorned hat and matching bouquet.

Lady Gaga is really favouring the cowgirl look lately, isn't she? This time, she went for the cowgirl Barbie look in full Marc Jacobs.

Lady Gaga has been favouring the bum-baring short shorts look lately (like here) and we love her for it.

We love this Gaga look - very rockabilly in her high-waisted, washed jeans, shades and studded boots.

Lady Gaga made a departure from her usual quirky ensembles to wear this gorgeous pale pink ethereal gown. We love how the drape covers one shoulder and her low bun hairstyle is the perfect accompaniment.

Metallics are one of the biggest trends around at the moment and
Lady Gaga put her own twist on the style with this two-piece silver outfit. It might not be for everyone but it certainly shows off her toned physique.

Even for Gaga, this look is rather risqué! The singer was spotted in a bold printed red jacket, complete with a thigh-high split. She then finished off her look with some space-age-inspired sunglasses. Interesting.

Is it odd that we kind of like Gaga's latest bold ensemble? There's something about that furry jacket and satin outfit underneath that makes us smile!

Oh Gaga, you really have outdone yourself this time! The bold star stepped out on holiday in Italy in this rather interesting netted one-piece with flared sleeves... we love the sunglasses though!

Another day, another bra. Lady Gaga just can't get enough of flauting her assests at the moment... The singer later stepped out in New York sans bra and just gold blazer. Each to their own!

After performing at the Royal Albert Hall with her collaborator Tony Bennett, Lady Gaga hit the town dressed in little more than sequinned nipple daisies and some rather large knickers. Some how, she pulled it off.

We love this Clueless-meets-French-Riviera look from Gaga. How very demure.

Recently Lady Gaga has been keeping things unusually demure in the style stakes. Following her Oscars' Sound Of Music performance where she did Julie Andrews proud, she's now back to her daring old self. Just feast your eyes on this cobalt leather all-in-one with matching cap ensemble (note the sequinned brows).
Rex Features
You've got to give it to Gaga, she's not one to do things by halves. For a trip out in Paris, the Born This Way singer donned a blow-up metallic star creation to take in the sights of the city of love. Never mind what she looks like - how did she even get into the outfit? Commitment to the Haus of Gaga sartorial cause indeed.

With waves and waves of greeny-yellow hair, it would appear that Lady BraBra is well and truly back on outing in New York. Very Lady G circa Telephone... Love it!

Huh?

Boyfriend jeans and - what looks to be - a band tee is actually a pretty tame look for Gaga but those super-sized sunglasses and extra long Rapunzel hair is a nod to her signature wacky styling.

Salmon pink trousers meets floor-length skirt, a metallic bra-meets-breastplate and a bold furry shrug. It's Gaga all over.

A glitzy pink all in one with matching hat, a waist-skimming white ponytail and impossible-to-walk-in patent heels - just another day in the life of Gaga's wardrobe.

Just how does she walk in those shoes?!

Never one to make a low-key exit, Lady Gaga opts for a look-at-me embellished checkerboard jumpsuit, complete with a mane of silver plaited locks for a day out in the city.

About to head out into London town and need to find something suitable for the chilly weather?

Lady Gaga tried her hand at a spot of modelling, taking to Thierry Mugler’s runway in this structured white gown, huge ponytails and bowl-shaped hat during Paris Fashion Week.

There’s not many people who’d make THIS kind of effort for a (very) early morning interview, but Lady Gaga’s not one to let the daylight interfere with her making a huge entrance. The pop queen wore a futuristic peach latex suit, a Mugler headpiece and a visor to the show.

Of course, Lady Gaga’s unique fashion sense doesn’t just extend to her wardrobe - check out these prosthetic pyramid horns she wore grafted onto her skin when she appeared on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno.

Is that chocolate smeared on the side of her face? Again, not the wackiest ensemble she’s ever dared to wear, but the nun in mourning look was a particularly odd choice for the launch of Polaroid Grey Label.

While this golden dress, bee hive and round sunnies combo was one of the more sedate outfits we’d snapped Gaga in all year, it was the first time the term ‘Cat Lady Chic’ had been mentioned on the fashion desk.

On a scale of one to completely bonkers, Lady Gaga’s now-legendary meat dress was off the charts. Made from cuts of raw meat – including bacon, steak and pork chops and coming complete with meat purse and shoes – the dress has been specially ‘jerked’ and preserved to stop it …well…going off, really!

A sheer lace jumpsuit is enough to send tremors down even the most fearless fashionista’s spine – not GaGa, who sported hers with a huge plastic flower hat by Charlie le Mindu and matching rose petal mask.

How do you solve one of fashion’s biggest conundrums: what to wear to meet the Queen? With a red latex gown, of course, like Lady GaGa in her Royal Variety performance number, which was complete with Elizabethan collar and 12 metre train – and took seven people two weeks to make!

As GaGa goes, this harlequin jumpsuit is pretty low-key – we’re talking minimal accessories and poker-straight hair – but that oversized ruff stays true to her out-there style.
