Rio goes Gaga for US singer ahead of free concert
- Lady Gaga, a 39-year-old US pop icon, will perform a free mega-concert on Saturday at Copacabana beach in Rio de Janeiro.
- Brazilians have eagerly anticipated this event for more than ten years, especially since her scheduled 2017 performance at a Rio rock festival was called off because of health problems.
- Fans called “little monsters” gathered early, buying Gaga-themed merchandise and wearing outfits inspired by her iconic looks, including the 2010 meat dress.
- Organizers expect the concert to boost local revenues by about 70 percent compared with a regular week, stimulating economic activity during the typical off-season.
- This event follows May 2024’s Madonna show that drew over a million fans and pumped millions into Rio’s economy, with Gaga’s impact expected to be even larger.
