Lady Gaga Announces Las Vegas Residency For 2018
Lady Gaga has announced a massive Las Vegas residency at the MGM Park Theater that is scheduled to start late in 2018.
“The rumors are true!” Gaga wrote on Twitter. “I will have my own residency at MGM’s Park Theater. Get ready for a brand new show!! It’s been my lifelong dream to be a Las Vegas girl, I’m so overjoyed! Love you little monsters we did it, meet me in Las Vegas!!”
Though the exact dates have not yet been revealed, Lady Gaga’s mooted residency is believed to boast of 74 concerts with the possibility of further extending the run remaining on the table. According to reports in Variety, the deal is reportedly worth $100 million in all.
Lady Gaga spent much of 2017 touring the world in support of her latest album, the acclaimed Joanne, wrapping her most recent North American run of 37 dates on 14 December in Salt Lake City. However, in September, Gaga was forced to cancel a South American festival date and postpone the European leg of her tour in order to heal from “severe physical pain”, although she is set to return to Europe in January 2018.
Gaga has been open about her struggles with chronic pain and fibromyalgia, discussing the condition on social media and in her recent documentary, Gaga: Five Foot Two. The documentary debuted earlier in 2017 at the Toronto Film Festival and has since come to Netflix. Filmmaker Chris Moukarbel (Banksy Does New York) directed the documentary. “I had a rare opportunity to create a portrait of an artist with such an open heart and mind,” he said in a statement. “I feel really lucky that Gaga trusted me and my vision.”
In November, Lady Gaga notched two Grammy nominations, Best Pop Vocal Album for Joanne and Best Pop Solo Performance for her single, ‘Million Reasons.’
