Lady GaGa had a startling admission for Jonathan Ross this week.

"I would rather die than have my fans not see me in a pair of high heels."GaGa, real name Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta was speaking during a Tuesday night recording of Friday Night With Jonathan Ross.

It's usually recorded on a Thursday but was brought forward to accommodate the singer's busy schedule. During the taping, the pop star had a dig at fellow celebs for failing to take as much care in maintaining a glitzy public image. "You see legendary people taking out their trash, I think it's destroying showbusiness," she said "I'd never give up my wigs and hats for anything." True to form, Lady GaGa wore a number of showstopping ensembles, including a big shouldered trouser suit teamed with huge Perspex platforms and a hat shaped like a telephone.

This was a not so subtle refecnce to her new single Telephone, which she performed on the show. She also took to the stage in a eye-catching white bird-like outfit, complete with huge wings, before saying she felt more love from the UK fans. "People in Britain are the ones who’ve really been my friends," she said, adding: "There is no greater lady than the Queen." She got the chance to meet her royal idol in December when she performed for the Monarch at the Royal Variety Performance.
