'BORN THIS WAY BALL' IN MANILA WAS THE BESTESTEST SHOW I EVER SAW SINCE THE MADONNA CONCERT I ATTENDED IN AMSTERDAM, HOLLAND.

During the sow, it was standing room only as many stood up to clap and dance, like this pair of hot legs

The girl next to MIchael Mantz fell asleep or did they blink at the wrong moment?

OK all awake now

A quick bite was necessary to fortify oneself for the clapping and shouting


THEN PRINCESS DR BECKY LEOGARDO FLEW ME THERE ON MALAYSIA AIRLINES AND MICHAEL MANTZ PAID FOR OUR VIP TICKETS THAT CINLUDED CHAMPAGNE BEFORE AND AFTER MADONNA'S CONCERT. BUT IN MANILA IT WAS STRICTLY TICKET ONLY AS WE COULD BUY TONS OF BURGERS AND SNACKS EVERYWHERE WE TURNED.

SOME RELIGIOUS FANATICS PROTESTED OUTSIDE BUT I DIDN'T SEE THEM AS EVERYTHING FLOWED SMOOTHLY. WE ARRIVED IN THE 4-WHEELER OWNED BY DR CHIT, THE SISTER OF PRINCESS DR BECKY LEOGARDO WHO HIRED A CHAUFFEUR NICK TO DRIVE US ALL OVER MANILA. WE WERE DROPPED OFF RIGHT AT THE DOORSTEPS SINCE PRINCESS BECKY BOUGHT THE MOST EXPENSIVE SEATED TICKETS AS WE REFUSED TO STAND BELOW LADY GAGA'S STAGE FOR NEARLY 4 HOURS!

The show started with an international deejay who revved up our adrenalin and got our juices flowing for nearly half an hour before Lady Gaga appeared. However there were several false alarms as several Lady Gagas DID appear to mingle with the Little Monsters.

There was one Lady Gaga who tottered to below our seats to be photographed with her screaming fans. I thought she was for real since we were seated in the most expensive seats available at RM 850 each so I rushed down the steps and almost fell only to discover she looked, dressed and acted like Lady Gaga but as she had a seat and returned to it later, I wisely concluded she could not have been Lady Gaga unless she planned to sit and sing all night long without a single dance.

Then there was this Lady Gaga who wore balloons in lieu of  a dress and even lifted her leg on a railing like the ladies of Patpong. So she was not Lady Gaga either. Neither were the twins who perambulated as one.

But as she made her way to a seat and sat down, I sadly concluded she was not the real Lady Gaga after all, unless she planned to sit and sing all night without dancing.

The curtain was pulled back to reveal this mock Tudor castle but as the lady wearing balloons was still cavorting with us, again I had to assume she was not Lady Gaga after all

Showtime!
