Gaga Arrives in Sydney And Meets The Fans Outside Park Hyatt Hotel Before Night Out

SYDNEY went gaga last night with the arrival of the US pop diva fresh from her three-show tour stop in Brisbane.

And just when we thought the claw-nailed, blue-haired chanteuse may opt for a dowdy tracksuit and some sensible shoes for her Sydney arrival, we were pleasantly relieved to see the visiting singer frock up appropriately for her grand entrance at the Park Hyatt Hotel last night.

Made up from top-to-toe, Lady Gaga spent 30 minutes with fans outside the hotel before retreating inside - where, we hear, she had a wardrobe change before venturing out with some of her entourage. It's understood Gaga and pals stopped by Bar 100 at The Rocks en route to Dave Freeman's Kings Cross speakeasy Backroom.

After all, with three days until her first Sydney show - at Allphones Arena on Wednesday night - there is plenty of time to shake off a hangover.

Meanwhile Gaga's recent censorship troubles in Thailand have followed her to Australia, with reports the Cultural Ministry of Thailand has filed an official complaint with the US Embassy for what it says is an "offensive use of the Thai flag" after she appeared on stage with a Thai flag tied to a motorcycle.
