The singer, who is touring her enormous 'Born This Way' ball, lit up during her gig at the Ziggo Dome and praised "wondrous marijuana" after getting the joint from a crowd member at the show.

She told the crowd: "I want you to know it has totally changed my life and I've really cut down on drinking. It has been a totally spiritual experience for me with my music."

Gaga also joked she was going to talk to President Barack Obama in a bid to make marijuana legal worldwide and added that she believed that the drugs leaf symbol is the "new peace sign". She added: "It's like saying everybody needs to take a breath and its going to be OK."

Lady Gaga recently completed the tour's British leg with a pair of dates at Twickenham Stadium on September 8 and 9 and a third show at Manchester Arena on September 11.
