Lady Gaga
Leave it to Lady Gaga to get people talking.
 In 2010, it was her cover shoot for Vogue Hommes Japan that put animal activists in a rage when she graced the cover wearing nothing but pieces of raw meat. 


Even by her standards, it is a little raw.
Just when you thought it was impossible to be any more outrageous, Lady Gaga
has gone further than ever with her 
latest shocking outfit.

She has posed in a bikini made entirely 
of red meat for a Vogue magazine cover, prompting a furious response from 
animal rights campaigners.

On the cover of Japanese Men’s Vogue she poses with one hand on her hip and another on her head with what appears to be 
steak under it.

The ‘bikini’ is strung together from other cuts of red meat as bright as her red lipstick that are draped strategically over her naked body.
‘Lady Gaga's job is to do outlandish things, and this certainly qualifies as outlandish because meat is something you want to avoid putting on or in your body,’ said Ingrid Newkirk, president of animal rights campaign group PETA.

‘No matter how beautifully it is presented, 
flesh from a tortured animal is flesh from a tortured animal.'

‘Meat represents bloody violence and suffering, so if that's the look they were going for — they achieved it.’


Gaga’s habit of wearing bizarre outfits is perhaps more legendary than her 
chart success.

From the excessively high shoulder pads to the warped wedding dresses and an entire outfit made of Kermit the Frog toys, she is never afraid to defy convention or, as appears here, good taste.
