Pop icon Lady Gaga gave a show-stopping performance in Tel Aviv’s Hayarkon Park on Saturday as part of her “artRAVE: The ARTPOP Ball” world tour. Some 30,000 concertgoers were also wowed with a surprise appearance by the legendary Tony Bennett, who performed a duet with Lady Gaga taken from their collaborative effort, Cheek to Cheek, to be released on September 19th.
With several other international acts set to perform in Tel Aviv in the coming year, Lady Gaga’s performance marked the return to show business as normal in Israel. The Beach Boys and Canadian crooner Paul Anka are among those scheduled to perform in the remainder of 2014 with The Backstreet Boys promising a concert in Israel in the spring 2015.
