MTV News | Gaga’s Male Opener!

We expected something shocking from Lady Gaga but we weren’t expecting her alter ego Jo Calderone from her new song ‘You And I’ video to make an appearance and kick off this year’s 2011 MTV VMA’s!

Sporting an Elvis style quiff, black pants and a white t-shirt the superstar puffed on a cigarette and told the crowd,

“Lady Gaga left me!” the singer then went on to say,

“She’s crazy.. she puts her heels on, goes to the bathroom, comes out of the bathroom and still has her heels on!”

Bizarrely blaming herself for not letting Jo come out more she shouted,

“A spotlight follows her around.. How am I suppose to shine? I’m not real, I’m theatre!”

She then took to the piano to perform 'You And I' and was joined by Queen guitarist legend Brian May and a team of male dancers who were dressed just like her!

We expected nothing less from the wacky songstress!
