Lady Gaga’s SNL Appearance Sparks Controversy and Mayhem

Lady Gaga's recent appearance on Saturday Night Live (SNL) has caused a significant stir, blending her role in the upcoming 'Joker 2' film with her musical performance. The episode, which aired to much anticipation, saw Gaga not only performing but also engaging in a skit that drew parallels to her character in the sequel to the acclaimed 'Joker' movie.

Her opening monologue, according to HuffPost, cleverly intertwined her film role with current events, creating a buzz that extended beyond the show. Variety reported that her involvement with 'Joker 2' and her appearance on SNL have led to mixed reactions, with some fans praising her versatility and others criticizing the thematic choices.

The episode was not without its controversies. Gaga's performance was described by Forbes as causing 'mayhem' on the show, a testament to her ability to command attention and stir conversation. The episode's guest list and musical segment, as detailed by Yahoo Entertainment, also contributed to the night's high energy and controversial edge.
