Lady Gaga performs ‘Hold My Hand’ ahead of NFL

The superstar sang her heart out in tribute for the locals on New Orleans Bourbon Street in a pre-record segment.

Lady Gaga sat at a grand piano in a glamorous all white ensemble. The pop star made outfit more dramatic with an accessory of an oversized white hat. Lady Gaga sang a rendition of Hold My Hand on Bourbon Street in honour of the victims of the New Orleans attack that left 14 people dead last month.

Although the Just Dance songstress paid tribute to a tragedy, many Super Bowl viewers couldn’t get over her outfit choice, specifically the extra large hat.

Several took to X, formerly Twitter, to comment opinions on the larger-than-life accessory.

“Lady Gaga’s hat is ridiculous,” one X user commented. Another wrote, “Lady Gaga’s hat look like something [Darkwing] Duck would wear,” attaching a GIF of cartoon duck in a purple hat that looked very similar to the Grammy winner’s.

While many were super-focused on part of her attire, others were blown away with her emotive performance, which included a full band and a choir.
