Lady Gaga may have only flipped off her old high school this week with her mind, but yesterday evening she quite literally flipped the bird while attending a Mets game at Citi Field. Lewd gestures in a ballpark? Why yes, that is front page news!
The photos first started popping up over at Jezebel, where they reported the pop star showed up during the 5th inning with "very little makeup and a skimpy outfit" (more specifically, the bra she dons in her "Telephone" video). She was allegedly upset that the photographers, there to shoot the game, were so close to her front row seats, and had a bit of a meltdown when they turned their cameras on her. She eventually escaped to Jerry Seinfeld's luxury box, because—according to one of the Post's sources—"having them take pictures of her all game would've been annoying to all the fans. That was going to ruin it for everyone."
However, that's when she started drawing even more attention to herself: she made out with a woman, stripped down to just her bedazzled undies, and gave everyone who looked her way the double finger, all the while screaming "Fuck you! Fuck you!" But since Gaga has declared her love for the Yankees in the past, we're going to go ahead and assume this was all part of some grand psychological warfare plot against the Mets.
