After much anticipation Lady Gaga has landed in New Zealand ready for her two Auckland concerts and she is already winning over fans.
After stepping out of the Auckland International Airport Lady Gaga tweeted: "Just arrived in New Zealand, greeted at 7am by all my beautiful fans, glitter faces + police. Can't wait to perform the show of a lifetime."
She has been hailed as the new queen of pop, but Lady Gaga is not one for diva demands and keeping her fans at bay.
Instead, the pop sensation stopped for photos with her fans, including professional celebrity hunter Andrew Tapper - who has added a photo to his extensive collection.
She then went on to tweet: "Listening to The Edge. Catch me if you can Kiwis. I'm in a walka. Play telephone?x."
Lady Gaga surprised The Edge radio station's breakfast hosts Jay-Jay, Mike and Dom by calling them.
She told The Edge she was being chased by her "little monsters" - her fans.
Lady Gaga reiterated to her fans that she has brought the full Monster Ball tour to New Zealand.
"I put in a little extra money this year for the freight so that all the fans here could see the exact same show that everyone else sees all over the world. This is not going to be an abridged show; they're going to see the real Monster Ball.
"I love them, the fans, so much and I think it's really unfair that in some places, I have some friends that live down here and they always say that nobody ever brings their full show, so I just thought it was really important 'cause I love my little monsters down here so much.
"It's going to be a really explosive and powerful show and I just wanted to call in and thank you guys for playing my music, it really means so much for me," Lady Gaga says.
It's been just 10 months since Lady Gaga last graced New Zealand's shores, opening for the Pussycat Dolls. Now she is headlining her own shows, to sellout crowds of more than 12,000.
And it's not just New Zealand going gaga for her, as fans around
the world are eagerly awaiting the global premiere of her new music
video, Telephone, featuring Beyonce, which will be released later
on Friday night.
Lady Gaga's not known for blending into the background, so what we want to know is: Have you spotted the singer around town?
