Why Lady Gaga Wore A Bulletproof Dress To A Presidential Inauguration

Lady Gaga is one celebrity who always goes the extra mile in terms of fashion. She has worn outfits that would border on crazy and never fails to surprise her fans and the press at events she attends.

The music star performed at the inauguration of President Joe Biden and was dressed in what seemed like a beautiful navy blue jacket and skirt, with a stunning gold brooch shaped like a dove.

However, as simple and classy as the outfit seemed, Lady Gaga couldn't resist adding a secret element to her outfit that no one would notice— she made it bulletproof. When the singer revealed that her outfit was bulletproof, it shocked many of her fans, but it truly wasn't that surprising, well, because it's Lady Gaga.

Here is a recap of her outfit for the inauguration and why she made it bulletproof.

Many musicians have performed at previous presidential inaugurations and have set the trend of subsequent performers wearing something classy and formal for the prestigious event.

Lady Gaga didn't disappoint and looked beautiful in a navy blue jacket and skirt combo designed by Italian designer Schiaparelli.

The jacket had a large gold brooch that was shaped like a dove holding an olive branch. The real surprise of the outfit was when the singer admitted that the entire thing was bulletproof. However, she didn't clarify whether the dress was bulletproof or if she wore bulletproof material beneath the dress.

With Gaga's history of eccentric performance and red carpet outfits, the bulletproof nature of her dress wasn't so strange to her fans. Still, it was certainly a different angle from her usual designs.

Lady Gaga has performed at hundreds of events, but for her, the inauguration was more than just an ordinary performance; it was an honor that felt special to her.

During an interview with British Vogue, she said, "Like many people in America, I felt a deep fear when Trump was president, and ushering 45 out and 46 in is something I'll be able to tell my children all about."

Many have speculated that maybe the deep fear she felt during Trump's presidency inspired her to protect herself with a bulletproof outfit. There is also the extremist activity and threats of violence that increased as the inauguration day approached.

It is possible that Lady Gaga felt the need to protect herself from anything that could happen, especially as she was one of many famous people that was outspoken critics of the Trump regime.

The large golden dove holding an olive branch was more than just a piece of jewelry to adorn Lady Gaga's outfit; it was a symbol. Many of her fans believe she chose the dove because it represents peace.

As a part of her outfit, it symbolized the beginning of a new administration that would bring peace and co-existence to the country.

Lady Gaga is a celebrity who has never shied away from sharing her opinions on sensitive issues, such as the Trump administration. In several interviews, she clarified that she doesn't care if people are offended by her opinions because she will share them regardless.

She also uses her clothing to make fashion statements, and nothing could have been louder and more precise than her outfit to Biden's inauguration. This outfit can be interpreted as a bulletproof outfit to protect against the outgoing bad and the dove brooch to signify the incoming peace.

Lady Gaga is more than just one of the world's most successful musicians. She is also a talented actress who has appeared in several films and TV shows. The 35-year-old featured in "Machete Kills" in 2013 and "Sin City: A Dame To Kill For" in 2014.

She surprised her fans by appearing as a vampire Countess in "American Horror Story" and brought many to tears with her performance in the remake of "A Star is Born," where she starred with Bradley Cooper.

"A Star is Born" was a worldwide hit that earned Lady Gaga an Academy Award, Grammy, BAFTA, and Golden Globe, all for her acting and performance of the song "Shallow" from the movie.

She will also appear in the upcoming movie "House of Gucci" as Patrizia Reggiani, the ex-wife of the late Maurizio Gucci. Patrizia was convicted of planning and arranging the assassination of her ex-husband and served 16 years in prison.
