'Two million' throng Lady Gaga concert at Rio's Copacabana
The Freeman
|May 06, 2025
Lady Gaga rocked Rio de Janeiro's Copacabana Beach on Saturday with a free mega-concert that the Brazilian city said drew about two million fans.
-
"Brazil, I missed you so much," screamed the American pop star - in her first Brazil gig since 2012 - before launching into "Poker Face" on a monumental chessboard, one of many grandiose backdrops in the two-hour extravaganza.
The 39-year-old singer kicked off the concert perched more than two meters above the stage, sporting a massive scarlet hoop gown which opened to reveal a vertical cage from which her dancers exited to a rendition of her 2011 song "Bloody Mary."
She then moved on to "Abracadabra," one of the highlights of her latest album, "Mayhem," released in March. In the middle of the song, Gaga removed the red dress, revealing another she was wearing underneath in the colors of Brazil's national flag: green, blue and yellow.
