Lady Gaga fans are saying the same thing about her SNL performances as star takes on double duty on show

Lady Gaga fans are all saying the same thing following her two performances on SNL as the star both hosted and was the musical guest during the latest episode.

The Bad Romance hitmaker, 38 – who poked fun at her critically panned film Joker 2 during her opening monologue – performed Abracadabra and Killah from her new album Mayhem which officially dropped this week on Friday.

In between showing off her comedic skills in a variety of sketches, the singer took to the stage to first perform the single Abracadabra – which was released last month.

Gaga – whose real name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta – donned a sparkling red jumpsuit that contained additional fabric around her lower hips.

She added a matching headpiece to complete the costume as she was joined by backup dancers for the upbeat track.

The actress belted out lyrics from the song while simultaneously performing choreography with the other dancers.

The Grammy winner began performing the track while making her way through the studio while accompanied by two dancers. 

She wore a fashionable purple outfit as she grooved her way to the stage where she joined a band. 

Towards the end, her costume was removed to reveal that she was wearing a dazzling red bodysuit underneath with a tᴀsseled fringe. 

She danced to the tune of the song – which was accompanied by electric guitar – and belted out the last of the lyrics after dropping to the floor for a dramatic conclusion. 

Social media users were quick to share their thoughts on the two performances — with most calling the singer’s dancing and singing ‘incredible.’

‘I love how Lady Gaga performs at 150% no matter the venue, every time you see her you got a SHOW,’ one fan penned on X (formerly Twitter).

Another wrote, ‘Lady Gaga is the performer of a generation. She builds a whole world in -3 minutes and d**n can she SANG.’

She took on the role of a high school student who was preparing for its weightlifting contest. However, her classmates made fun of Pip – a tiny mouse who they say could never win. 

Gaga felt sympathy for the mouse and then began to break out into song to share encouraging words to Pip. 

Some lyrics were: ‘Pip you can be anything you want/ you can shine brighter than the biggest and brightest star/ the other kids may laugh at you and treat you like a fool/ but I believe you can win the weightlifting contest out at school.’

However, during the compeтιтion, the mouse struggles to lift two ounces and runs away. 

The roof of the school collapses inside the gym where the contest took place and Pip saves the day when he helps lift an extra two ounces of rubble off students. 

Gaga teamed up with Bowen Yang in a sketch which took place during a dinner date in the city. 

At one point, the pair broke out into song to their own version of Eric Clapton’s 1977 track Wonderful Tonight. 

The songstress donned a fitted, red minidress while the comedian opted for a gray suit.

Bowen then added, ‘And then she bites me on both my nipples left and right/ and I say b***h you look wonderful tonight.’

After the two continued to sing their own version of the song, they sat back down to enjoy the bottle of wine they ordered.

However, upon learning it cost $28,000 – they ran out of the restaurant and Gaga grabbed the bottle of wine on her way out. 

In another skit, the singer joined Heidi Gardner as they played funeral home directors who were helping a couple who lost a family member. 

While ᴀssisting with plans, Gaga and Gardner asked the couple what ‘vibe’ they were looking for in regards to the funeral. 

When the couple were a bit confused, the pair suggested a ‘simple celebration of life’ or a theme that was the roaring 20s. 

Gaga promised that the latter would be ‘subtle’ with ‘A few words from family members. And a burlesque performance by Big Mama and the Flapper Girls.’

The couple continued to shut down the idea of the 20s theme but Gaga and Gardner tried to convince the pair to choose the theme. 

While a bartender suddenly appeared to serve cocktails from the era, the singer and comedian returned in flapper costumes and performed a quick tap dance number as Gaga sang out, ‘Boop Boop de Boop!’

Later in the night, Gaga and Bowen Yang reunited once again in a sketch where they broke out into song. 

While out to dinner with a group of friends, everyone kept commenting on the food and restaurant by using the word ‘slay.’ 

But Gaga and Yang immediately jumped in to demand that everyone stop using that word and did so through song – and gave different options to replace ‘slay.’

‘We can’t just repeat one word when there’s so many more to use,’ Bowen sang, with the Grammy winner adding, ‘So we’ve made a big decision for all of us and you. No more slay, no more slay!’
