American pop star and sore for sighted eyes Lady Gaga has brought her particular brand of visual-kei to Japan. As a performer known more for her visual style then her music, it would seem as though she would fit right in with Japan's fashion forward scene.
This video shows how that might not exactly be the case. While she does seem to play the part of crazy American star to a tee, Gaga also manages to shock an employee at a kimono shop when she removes her gianormous sunglasses to reveal a pair for totally blackened eyes. Someone get some bamboo for the giant panda!
At any rate, Gogo Ga does seem fit into Japan's already weird sense of style. Maybe she should spend more time there. Like, all of it?

Agreed, she should stay there and never come back to the US.
