Like I said before, I was lucky enough to get to attend the sold out Lady Gaga: Monster Ball tour on Sunday at the Toyota Center in Houston. And I again repeat that I am officially a devout Little Monster! I love, love, LOVED her show! Lady Gaga is an incredible performer with an incredible message for all!
Equality. Self love. Truth of Self.
But all of this aside, it was simply a ton of fun! My friends and I got dressed up and I was in charge of makeup. It was one of my first chances to try some crazier looks I have not had the opportunity to play with before. Any anyone who knows me, knows I LOVE makeup. Below are some of our pictures from the night.
Not bad for a first timer!
I have only one bad thing to say about the show, which I will qualify before. Although Lady Gaga’s costume and makeup changes were incredible, as always, some of the “quick changes” were not so quick. And during these moments, we only had Gaga videos to fill the time. It created too much dead space for me. BUT, like I said, the costumes were incredible!
As soon as it was over, I told my friends I would happily go back again, with crazier outfits and for better seats! Some of my favorites moments were (in no particular order):
1. I got made fun of a lot in high school, so I really milk this part of the show. Do you think I’m sexy? (CHEERS!) Do you think I’m beautiful? (CHEERS!)
2. I’m like Tinkerbell, if you don’t clap for me, I’ll die! DO YOU WANT ME TO DIE?!??! CLAP FOR ME!
3. The phone call to an audience member (that my friends and I desperately wanted to receive.)
4. Her great outfits and personalized interactions with her dancers, talking to and with them, calling them by name.
5. Making every audience member feel like she is talking directly to them. I was like a mesmerized child!
6. She was very clearly thankful for all she had.
7. Though we assumed we would fit right in with a decked out crowd or little monsters, we stood out with out makeup and clothes, and we loved it!
