Lady Gaga says performing in space will be "such an honour"

Lady Gaga is 'honoured' to be performing in space in the future.

The forward-thinking singer is due to become the first recording artist to perform in space at some point next year.

She has teamed up with Virgin Galactic, who are due to run the first commercial trips into space.

Speaking to Harper's Bazaar, Gaga said that she hopes her out of this world venture will represent unity and love.

She said: "I honestly can't wait. I can't wait to design the performance. I'm auctioning off my second seat [on the space flight] to raise money for the Born This Way Foundation.

Gaga added: "I want to make a moment that is about much more than me. Performing in space is such an honour. I want to challenge myself to come up with something that will not only bring everyone together but will also have a message of love that blasts into the beyond."
