Lady Gaga's Mega Concert in Rio

Pop superstar Lady Gaga performed a free concert on Copacabana beach in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, attracting an enormous crowd of over two million people. The event, funded by the city, was part of an effort to boost Rio's economy, with officials expecting it to generate around $100 million.

The concert was a promotional tour for Lady Gaga's eighth album, 'Mayhem'. Fans, known as 'Little Monsters', queued for hours to secure their spots on the beach. The singer appeared in Brazil-themed costumes, including outfits inspired by the national football team, and performed her hit songs to an enthusiastic audience.

Security was tight, with 5,000 police officers on duty and the use of metal detectors, drones, and facial recognition cameras. Lady Gaga expressed her gratitude to the fans, saying, 'You waited for me, you waited for more than 10 years for me.' The concert concluded with a spectacular fireworks display and her famous song 'Bad Romance'.
