After Lady Gaga’s performance, there’s no clear consensus on whether it was good or not. The only second-guess, and what likely riled fans up the most, is doing it all in the name of Bowie, who had no say in the matter of being part of an Intel ad. “I don’t know what my identity would be”.

And though everyone is entitled to an opinion, some are more relevant than others. The world was expecting an incredible musical eulogy.
Wearing a shoulder-padded blue dress coat reminiscent of David Bowie’s Ziggy Stardust persona, and sporting the traditional blue eyeshadow and flame hair, Lady Gaga had a striking resemblance to Bowie in the performance.
But while she may have everyone talking, it’s not all positive.
Celebrities in the audience applauded her, with Florence Welch taking to her feet and Lionel Ritchie watching on approvingly. But Gaga isn’t just wearing that particular Starman reference on her sleeve (literally).
In fact, it seems that the Space Oddity singer’s son Duncan Jones wasn’t feeling the tribute as he took to Twitter to send some shade Do What U Want artist’s way.
Duncan posted on his Twitter account- referring to the dictionary term for the word “gaga”. What IS that word!?’
Fans were outraged by an advert for Intel, which starred Gaga talking about the technology. On completion of the act, the CBS broadcast telecast an Intel commercial starring the pop star, and this left viewers furious, with many expressing their disgust on social media. However, seeing as the Grammys paid Adele an injustice with her technically ruined performance, it looks like Lady Gaga stole the show.

The tattoo, which is Gaga’s permanent way of giving honor to the late star, was inspired from the cover of Bowie’s Aladdin Sane album.
