Lady Gaga May Perform In Space In 2015

Rumors are spreading that Lady Gaga may perform on her biggest stage yet: space, as part of the futuristic music/technology festival Zero G Colony.

Zero G Colony is reportedly a hi-tech festival that will take place at the Virgin Galactic ‘Spaceport’ in New Mexico in 2015. Both their Twitter page and their website appear to have been launched Wednesday, Nov. 6, when speculation surrounding Lady Gaga’s possible space travels first began. Zero G Colony describes itself as “a three-day festival from the future.”

Lady Gaga will reportedly perform at the festival on land and then take a Virgin Galactic space flight and perform in space. The event will supposedly take place six months after Virgin Galactic, potentially the world’s first commercial space flight company, launches its first official flight.

“She has to do a month of vocal training because of the atmosphere,” a source told Us Weekly, adding that the pop star has taken out a “ridiculous life insurance policy.”

Gaga herself added fuel to the fire, tweeting a simple “#GagaInSpace2015” on Wednesday.

Lady Gaga quickly followed up that tweet with another, saying that she will confirm or deny the rumors on the day of her album launch Nov. 10.

Of course, knowing Gaga’s eccentric tendencies and outlandish performances, the event could be a publicity stunt to promote her upcoming album, ARTPOP. On Oct. 27, Gaga released the audio for a new song on her album titled “Venus,” though whether or not the title is related to her prospective adventures in space is unclear.

If Lady Gaga does, in fact, go to space aboard a Virgin Galactic craft, she will be the first pop star to sing in space, but will not be the only celebrity to have toured the sights beyond the skies. Virgin mastermind Richard Branson recently announced that actor Ashton Kutcher has bought himself a seat aboard the first commercial flight.

Little is known about the rumored groundbreaking performance, though perhaps it will be something like this:
