“I never thought I’d be asking Cher to hold my meat purse.” – Lady Gaga

Even by Lady Gaga standards, the meat dress she wore at the MTV VMAs was a bit of a fashion risk. She looked pretty tasty, though … in more ways than one.

At first glance, she looked fairly unassuming when she accepted the award for Video of the Year (one of eight she won on the night). But when you look closely …

You can expect Lady Gaga will be grilled over this fashion choice.

The “Bad Romance” singer explained the outrageous, juicy getup as such:

“Well, it is certainly no disrespect to anyone that is vegan or vegetarian, because as you know, I am the most judgment-free human being on the earth.”

“However, it has many interpretations. For me this evening, if we don’t stand up for what we believe in and fight for our rights pretty soon, we’re going to have as much rights as the meat on our bones. And, I am not a piece of meat.”

There you have it. Tell us, though, did she cross the line with this one? Or is it among her best ever? What do you think of Lady Gaga’s meat dress?
