Lady Gaga surprises fans by dining at local food court in Singapore
American pop star Lady Gaga surprised many unsuspecting diners when she was spotted having lunch at a hawker-style food court in Singapore.
The singer tried to blend in with the other patrons but was unmissable in her all-black outfit and signature platform boots when she dined with her fiance Michael Polansky and entourage at the open-air Maxwell Food Centre in the city's Chinatown district.
The 39-year-old appeared relaxed as she sat in front of the humble Fortune Popiah food stall ahead of her fourth and final show from her Asia-exclusive concerts at Singapore's National Stadium.
Fans couldn't believe their eyes when they realised the woman decked in black was Lady Gaga, with some even left in tears over the sighting.
'Not to freak out, but we are sitting across from Lady Gaga right now, right there,' one fan named Aukse Grei – who is a Lithuanian fashion photographer living and working in Asia – said in a social media video that has now gone viral.
'I just wanna hug her,' said Grei's friend, who was crying happy tears.
Grei then playfully told her, 'Cloe, I swear if you cry a bit harder, she will come and tell you to calm the f**k down.'
Another ecstatic fan also documented their experience on TikTok, writing, 'Sixteen years of being a Little Monster and I saw her right in front of me while I was going for a coffee break at Maxwell Food Centre. Felt surreal!'
Sadly, the TikTokers didn't get their moment with Gaga, but one lucky fan did catch her attention.
Before leaving the eatery and making her way to a waiting black limousine, the singer stopped briefly to sign a fan's vinyl of her new album Mayhem as a group of onlookers began to gather and chant Gaga's name.
Later in the year it will be Australia's turn to scream Gaga's name from the stadiums when she brings her much-anticipated Mayhem Ball world tour down under in December.
'I can't formally announce anything, but I can tell you that I'm going to be announcing … some things,' Gaga told the The Fox's Fifi, Fev & Nick last month.
'I miss my fans there so much, I really do. I have such fond memories of being in Australia, it's a beautiful place and I really do want to come back soon.'
For the Australian leg of the world tour in December, the Abracadabra pop superstar heads to our biggest east coast stadiums.
She will open the run at Marvel Stadium in Melbourne on December 5 and then head to Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane on December 9 and finally Sydney's Accor Stadium on December 12.

Rock icon's bizarre on-stage farewell
A rock icon left fans stunned after making his stage exit in a coffin. The huge black casket was wheeled out in front of the crowds at London's Alexandra Palace as the show wrapped. Yet gig-goers at American vocalist Iggy Pop's Lust For Life concert were then gobsmacked to see the 78 year old topless inside. He was then wheeled off to a host of cheers. The Michigan-born star, a former member of punk band the Stooges, posted the dramatic clip to his page on X with the caption: 'London was a hoot! How you exit is equally important to how you enter.' One fan was quick to comment: 'Only Iggy … may he long reign.' A second posted: 'Fantastic! You are Master!' as a third gushed: 'Always that smile…mischievous charmer.' One then put: 'F**kin love you Iggy!!' The wild man of rock, who was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame in 2010, played the venue on May 28. He kicked off the gig with Stooges track TV Eye and rattled through 20 tracks. He wrapped with tune Funtime after a cover version of The Dee Jays track Real Wild Child. Iggy previously revealed the way he relaxes off-stage - and it has nothing to do with a coffin. Last year, he opened up about the two things that gave him pleasure during his rock prime - Baths and rubber ducks. He said: 'I like baths, sometimes with a rubber duck and bubbles – yeah definitely bubbles.' The punk icon made the revelation at a listening party at Cannes Film Festival, hosted by Magnum, adding: 'Sometimes I get really upset if it's getting late in the day and I think to myself that I haven't done anything I really like.' 'And music is what gives me pleasure you know, well music and the sea.' 'That's my default setting, so I'm always putting my pleasure first – I can get really desperate to seek pleasure – and when that happens usually it means someone takes me to the beach.' 'Chill for me is about 95 per cent of life, I'm chill all the time.' Iggy went on to confirm the two main elements he now needs to make him feel euphoric – love and privacy – adding: 'If I get both of those in one day, then it's WOW.'
