She's an advocate of high-end fashion couture but now Lady Gaga is singing the praises of designer knock-offs, too.
The singer, 25, revealed that she bought counterfeit designer gear on last months trip to Japan.
In Tokyo, they have all these stores that have fake Chanel and Versace, she said. And Im an Italian from New York, so I still buy it. This jacket is a fake.
Gaga was talking to a group of fans in the US last week and advised them to go shopping in thrift stores and customise their own purchases rather than shell out their life savings on expensive garb.
Interestingly, she vowed last June to wear nothing but Versace for two months as she was having a love affair with Donatellas designs. Looks like the love affair may be over now.
