Gaga reaches out to mother of late teenage fan

Lady Gaga has promised to make contact with the mother of a 16-year-old fan who passed away in December after the woman posted an online plea for the singer's help.

Before his tragic death, James Bassett asked his mother to make his final wish come true by giving Gaga a scrapbook he had created in her honour.

In a bid to grasp Gaga's attention, the teenager's family put together a video showing images of the book and asking fellow Gaga fans to help reach the superstar.

Lady Gaga posted on Twitter last night:  "Just saw this video relating to the loss of a beautiful fan, James Monster.  Will email his mom. Were (sic) all here for you."
