Lady Gaga Hospitalized: Pop Star Undergoing Surgery

Posted: February 20, 2013

Pop superstar Lady Gaga checked herself into a hospital Wednesday in order to undergo hip surgery.

Lady Gaga cancelled several shows on her Born This Way Ball tour in the US earlier in February after she was diagnosed with synovitis, a severe inflammation of the joints, reports The San Francisco Gate.

At the time, a press release was released explaining that Lady Gaga had suffered a labral tear of the right hip.

Last Wednesday, Lady Gaga cancelled the rest of her tour in its entirety after she was told that she needed an immediate operation to treat her injured hip. Lady Gaga is currently under the knife in an attempt to solve the problem.

Going in for surgery now, the Judas singer tweeted this morning. Thank you so much for sending me love and support. I will be dreaming of you.

Gaga probably would have resumed her tour, except that her injury caused her intense pain, reports E! Online.

Ive been hiding a show inj! ury and chronic pain for sometime now,over the past month it has worsened, Gagatweetedafter Live Nation officially announced her tours cancellation. Ive been praying it would heal.

Lady Gaga continued:

I hid it from my staff, I didnt want to disappoint my amazing fans. However after last nights performance I could not walk and still cant. It will hopefully heal as soon as possible, she added. I hate this. I hate this so much. I love you and Im sorry.

Hopefully Lady Gaga recovers quickly so she can get back out there for her Little Monsters.
