A promoter behind Lady Gaga’s Monster Ball World Tour has blamed fatigue and dehydration for the star’s lackluster performance and near collapse during a show in New Zealand last Saturday night.
Fans of outlandish songstress were left fearing for her health after it appeared she nearly passed out during her gig at Auckland’s Vector Arena last weekend. Footage from the concert showed her struggling through a performance of “Bad Romance,” dazed and unsteady. The star removed her headgear and stretched flat ot across the stage for most of the song.
A promoter behind her Monster Ball tour has now put Gaga’s worrying antics down to tiredness and the searing heat in the Vector Arena, insisting the singer will be fully fit for upcoming concerts in Australia.
Michael Coppel, a promoter behind Gaga’s sold-out tour, has blamed fatigue, heat, and dehydration for the lethargic show, and insist the “Poker Face” star will be ready for her next round of shows in Australia.
“(Lady Gaga is) totally fine. It was warm at the show, she was tired and (a) bit dehydrated by the end of a two-hour plus performance. She performed the second Auckland show the following night without an issue and will be back in full match fitness for her first Australian show.”
In January, Gaga cancelled a series of concerts in the US after suffering exhaustion.
