Performing at AT&T’s Super Saturday Night during Super Bowl Weekend is one of the most sought after gigs all year, and this weekend, it was Lady Gaga‘s turn to headline the tenth annual event on Saturday (February 1) in Miami, FL.
Held at Meridian at Island Gardens, over 8,500 fans, celebrities and industry VIPs packed out the 65,000 square-foot custom built multi-level premier level event and entertainment experience to see Gaga ultimately bring a condensed version of her Las Vegas residency Enigma to the Magic City. The concert was also livestreamed on Twitter to over 1.39M viewers and quickly became the #1 trending topic on Twitter.
Notable celebs that could be seen on higher floors with bottle service included Jamie Foxx, Paul Rudd, Adriana Lima, Jeremy Renner, Jon Hamm, Hannah Jeter, Eiza Gonzales, Rob Lowe and more.
Paying homage to her epic Super Bowl Halftime performance in 2017, Gaga began her 90 minute set around 11:30pm by hanging from the ceiling and swinging around the massive venue, donning a blue wig while performing her breakthrough single “Just Dance.”
“When I got to do the Halftime Show, it was the most wonderful and beautiful things that’s ever happened to me,” she said to the audience. “I wish so much love and so much luck to everyone that’s doing the Halftime Show and both teams playing in the Super Bowl. They’re both champions.”
Following her epic entrance, Gaga told the crowd, “Miami, who wants to play some poker or some f—ing football? Put your hands in the air!” before singing “Poker Face.”
Delivering hit after hit, the multi-platinum singer/songwriter captivated the audience with songs like “Telephone,” “Paparazzi,” “Edge of Glory”, “Alejandro,” “Applause,” “Aura,” “LoveGame” and more. The most memorable moments of the evening came towards the end of the show, where Gaga stripped it down by playing “Million Reasons” and “You & I” on the piano before bringing the upbeat vibe back with “Bad Romance” and “Born This Way.”
For her encore, the pop visionary returned to her piano wearing a vintage Lady Gaga band tee to belt out the lyrics to “Shallow” from A Star Is Born. The crowd enjoyed every second of it, as they filmed the performance on their phones while singing along to the Oscar-winning hit.
Before leaving the stage, Gaga gave the crowd one piece of advice that stuck with us after we departed the venue. “Don’t leave here loving me more, leave here loving yourself more,” she shared.
