Gaga's fundraiser for a senator

Lady GaGa is set to hold a fundraiser for the Democratic senator, Sen Frank Lautenberg, at an upcoming stop on her 'Monster Ball' tour.

Lautenberg is in his ninth term of office, and will offer private suites for top donors at Gaga's performance.

The idea for the fundraiser came from the senator himself, after the New Jersey politician celebrated his 86th birthday at the Gaga's Radio City Music Hall concert earlier this year.

The fundraiser will take place in Washington DC on September 7.
