- Lady Gaga‘s stage at Lollapalooza will be, in a word, huge. Perry Farrell told MTV News:
“I actually said, ‘Who’s the chick with all the clothes, because this is my festival and she’s got [a lot of clothes racks]. We’ve got one rack.’ I gotta follow this chick and see what’s going on. But she had this sweet smile. And she was real mischievous, so I liked her. She asked for a giant stage, so we spent like $100,000 to give her a giant stage. We spent close to $150,000 to house the production she’s gonna do. And I say yeah, let’s do it.” [ONTD via MTV]
