Lady Gaga Wears Racy Giorgio Armani Bodysuit for ‘American Idol’ Performance

Sorry, naysayers, but if loving Lady Gaga is wrong, we don’t wanna be right.

And apparently Giorgio Armani agrees.

The Italian designer, who has designed costumes for the envelope-pushing pop star’s concert tour, was the brains behind the racy head-to-toe bodysuit she wore while performing her single “Alejandro” on last night’s “American Idol.”

Bringing a welcome (albeit not exactly family-friendly) sartorial reprieve from Simon Cowell’s boring black V-necks, Gaga took the stage in a spotlight-stealing silk mesh bodysuit accented with embroidered Chantilly lace and crystal and jet beading, paired with a Cher-ific silk organza cape and black patent stiletto boots.

“‘American Idol’ is a real modern phenomenon that has captured the public’s imagination and delivers great drama,” Armani said in a press release.

“It is fitting then that the show is to host another modern phenomenon who has proved to be fascinating, and whose every appearance is a piece of theater: Lady Gaga.


“Dressing Lady Gaga for the Grammy Awards, the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute Gala, and now for ‘American Idol’ has been a very exciting project.

“To complement the spirit of Lady Gaga herself, I have let my imagination run free, and the outfit I have created for her for ‘American Idol’ is pure fantasy.”

No kidding — that outfit’s the most over-the-top thing to hit the “Idol” stage since Adam Lambert.

Of course, the Gagster is no stranger to rocking the show’s boat. In 2009 she performed “Poker Face” in a sexy black and silver corset.

We can’t wait to see what the Double-G dream team comes up with next!
