Lady Gaga, Miley Cyrus Meet The Queen

By PopEater Staff Posted Dec 8th 2009 09:48AM

Two of America's pop queens met their match yesterday -- Queen Elizabeth II. The two performed as part of the Queens' Royal Variety Performance in London, UK's Sun reports. And in true fashion, Lady Gaga sported a red PVC suit and 20-foot cloak topped with a regal Elizabethan-style ruffle. Later when the two met, Queen Elizabeth II reportedly giggled when Lady Gaga curtsied and shook her hand. Miley Cyrus also performed, but she seemed more excited about meeting Lady Gaga than The Queen.

Cyrus sang her hit 'Party In The USA' for the British ruler as part of The Royal Variety Show, an event which benefited the Entertainment Artists' Benevolent Fund. Afterward, she wrote on her official Web site, "I met lady gaga!!!" and proceeded to repeat it more than 50 times.

During Lady Gaga's performance of 'Speechless,' she sat a top a swing suspended 30 feet in the air as she played a piano held up on giant stilts. According to UK's Daily Mirror, Lady Gaga's performance had to be toned down, and she was forced to drop a "suicide act" from her performance.

Lady Gaga admitted, "I wanted to do the suicide scene but was told it wouldn't be appropriate. I've also had to tone things down generally. But it doesn't matter because I'm a massive fan of the Queen. I was so excited and have even been practicing my curtsy."

Other performers on the event's bill were Bette Midler, 'X Factor' winner Alexandra Burke, Katherine Jenkins, Mika and Michael Buble.

You do if you have GOOD MANNERS, which you are sorely lacking apparently.

Your an IDIOT we have blended cultures and beliefs and if American's wish to honor other cultures by doing as the people of the land what's it to you and it does nothing but show a humble respect? In no way is such a jesture a sign of weakness! What makes us so over the top that we can not bow in Asian or curtsie in England? Respect that's what it's called, so you go tell your momma...JERK!!!!!

WHY DON'T YOU JUST DO SOMETHING IN YOUR LIFE THAT MATTERS SO YOU CAN MEET THE QUEEN AND SHOW OBAMA HOW IT IS DONE PROPERLY. JUST STICK TO SHOWING EVERYONE HOW TO PROPERLY CLEAN YOUR TRAILER TRASH IF YOU DO SO.

We fought a revolution to NOT have to bow to royalty. We have no royalty in this country. It has been a custom from our founding and it hasn't changed. I will say that Lady Gaga did a better job than Obama. Whenhe bows it looks like he's tryingto kiss their feet. Of course, he didn't bow to the queen, just the rest of the world.
By the way, what has Lady Gaga done that is so important???

By Hannah

So totally true, and I agree that our presidant needs to learn that

Most americans that travel abroad are in tuned to respecting other cultures and their customs. The americans who speak out against it are rude bungling idiots that have been nowhere but to a mud wrestling match. That is as close as the will ever get to experiencing anything. Those are the ones that don't need to go anywhere because the are classless and clueless.
