Lady Gaga Kickstarts The Mayhem Ball in Las Vegas: Compilation of Best Moments from the Night
The actress-musician had announced the tour in March this year and expressed her excitement over her first tour in the Arena, since 2018.
In the announcement statement she released earlier this year, Gaga mentioned, 'This is my first arena tour since 2018.' She further added, 'There's something electric about a stadium, and I love every moment of those shows. But with The MAYHEM Ball, I wanted to create a different kind of experience—something more intimate—closer, more connected—that lends itself to the live theatrical art I love to create.'
Best moments from Lady Gaga's The Mayhem Ball
The opening rush before the show was insane. The fans expressed their love for Lady Gaga in the pre-show event by recording text-in testimonials. As the singer hit the stage, she started the performance with Bloody Mary, which she also crooned to at Coachella.
Throughout her whole act, Gaga went on to demonstrate her acting skills, which only enhanced her performance.
Out of the many tracks pulled out efficiently by the musician, the fan favorite was Poker Face. Gaga welcomed the crowd to the concert, as she said, 'Welcome to Mayhem,' in a German accent. She further screamed, 'Welcome to the opera house. This is my house.'
The singer soon began with her Poker Face performance, vibing with the audience on the Queen of Hearts-themed performance.
Other standout tracks performed by the actress at the Mayhem Ball included Perfect Celebrity, Disease, Killah, and Paparazzi. For Killah, the musician donned a gothic look as she let herself loose in front of a large skull placed on the stage. She also carried out horror spins before unleashing a hellish and prolonged scream.
For the final lap, Gaga, donning a black beanie and a Cramps t-shirt, crooned to How Bad Do You Want Me. For the last song, she simply existed as a human, sharing casual smiles with the fans, and ran around the stage.
Addressing the crowd, the actress-singer said, 'Before I came on stage tonight, I couldn't even believe you were here for me.'
Lady Gaga's next stop for the tour is in San Francisco, where she will perform on July 22.

2004 was a bad year for Lucky Ali, one decision and his career got destroyed, he decided to...
There was a time when his voice echoed in every college campus, cafe, and heart that knew love. Songs like 'Ek Pal Ka Jeena' and 'Na Tum Jaano Na Hum' made him an overnight icon in the early 2000s, but the man behind those soulful tracks, Lucky Ali, never really dreamt of singing. Here's what he wanted to become? That's where his journey began, as a child artist. But life had other plans. Destiny pulled him into music, and by 2000, he was climbing the charts, often considered even better than Sonu Nigam and Udit Narayan by fans. What happened in 2004 that changed everything? One word: fallout. According to reports, 2004 became the turning point that pushed Lucky Ali away from the mainstream. His solo album 'Kabhi Aisa Lagta Hai' was reportedly shelved by T-Series after he objected; he believed multiple lyricists deserved credit, not just one (Samir). He took a stand for fair recognition. But that stand cost him dearly. The album was pulled back, and with it, a chunk of his commercial career faded too. Did Lucky Ali ever name Bhushan Kumar? He never took names publicly. But the buzz in media circles pointed at the T-Series chief, Bhushan Kumar, as the other side of the disagreement. A personal loss that hit harder than the professional one? Yes. The same year, 2004, Lucky's father, veteran actor and comedian Mehmood, passed away. At the time, Lucky was in Pennsylvania, USA, for medical treatment. He didn't just lose a parent. He lost his anchor. After that, he stepped away, not just from Mumbai, but from the industry altogether. Where is Lucky Ali now? He's still singing, still soulful, but far away from the chaos. Today, clips of him singing 'Jaane Kya Dhoondhta Hai' often go viral. He lives in Goa, performs with his band, and seems at peace. Lucky Ali may have vanished from Bollywood's glitter, but his voice—raw, pure, and timeless, still finds its way to us.
