Lady Gaga’s highly-anticipated David Bowie tribute at the 2016 Grammy Awards was colorful, flamboyant but–most important–absolutely stunning. Sir Bowie would be proud.
Decked out in bright orange hair and a ’70s-style disco suit, Gaga shifted through a myriad of Bowie’s hits–including “Fame,” “Ziggy Stardust” and “Rebel, Rebel”–with the style and theatrically of the rock icon himself.

Gaga frequently references Bowie in her own artistry, so her tributing him tonight makes perfect sense. They each share a love of true-blue showmanship, and that aesthetic permeated throughout Gaga’s entire performance–right down to the technicolor backdrops.
It was a Grammy moment that will stand the test of time. Let us know what you thought about it in the comments below.
