The show to be held in Copacabana on Saturday 3, marks the second performance of the artist in Rio de Janeiro and the record audience
Lady Gaga It is already in Brazil for the show that takes place on Saturday evening, 3, in Copacabana beachin Rio de Janeiro. This is the second time that the singer arrived in the country: in 2012 he made tour shows Born in this way ball In Rio, in San Paolo and Porto Alegre.
Gaga almost returned to 2017 to participate in Rock in Rio, but had to cancel the last minute for health reasons. The singer suffers from fibromyalgia and faced intense pain.
If, that year, the frustration of the fans was enormous, the same cannot be said about Gaga’s first passage here, which was frenetic and warm.
During his stay in Rio de Janeiro, where he made the first show, the singer visited Morro do Cantagalo, in the south of the city. There, he played football, he sang with the children of a social project, drank beer in a bar and even took a ride with a motorcycle.
Gaga asked to rent two buses to bring the community residents to the presentation. That night, the artist cried when he sang the track Hair Next to three fans, chosen alone among the public. The capital of Rio de Janeiro decreed as his “favorite place all over the world” and confided that he had never felt so happy.
The experience motivated Gaga to mark a tribute at the moment. Tattooed by Carioca Daniel Tucci, he recorded the word “River” in the back of the neck, reproducing a drawing made by fans. In the image, the letter appears stylized in cross format, with reference to Christ the Redeemer.
In a Facebook post, the star explained that “the source was created by the signatures of three fans, all by different neighborhoods and ages” by Rio. “He represents how music unites us,” he wrote. Five years later, when he canceled his participation in Rock in Rio, he published another photo of the tattoo and asked the Small monsters Brazilians do not forget their love.
In the 2012 presentation in San Paolo, Gaga was hit on the face with an object released by Fan. The public was enhanced and whistles were listened to, but soon it appeared to the unpleasant situation. “Don’t do it. I’m fine,” he said.
Next Saturday, 3, Gaga should sing for an audience of 1.6 million people in Copacabana, according to Rio de Janeiro’s forecasts. Thirteen years ago, however, the artist made a tour of ups and downs, receiving half of the public scheduled for Brazilian shows. In San Paolo, 60,000 of the 77,000 tickets were purchased and, in Rio, 44 thousand of 90 thousand.
