Lady Gaga has a 24-carat gold wheelchair as she recovers from hip surgery. Of course she does

Obviously by ‘off the road’ we mean the touring trail and the wheels we refer to aren’t those of a limo but a wheelchair.

This is because the Gaga has undergone hip surgery, which has derailed her from her punishing touring schedule in favour of rest and recovery, which we’re sure is being made a whole lot easier and more glamorous with this.

Gaga’s latest companion comes in the form of a rather impressive wheelchair that has 24-carat gold wheel spokes and frame and plush black leather seats.

Of course it has a black leather hood - it's a soft top

It was designed for her by Ken Borochov who said this about his celebrity commission: “I certainly wasn't expecting that phone call and have never done a wheelchair but am always up for a challenge and was thrilled to create what I affectionately dubbed the Chariot, a chair fit only for a queen.”

We’re pretty sure this is the chair she Tweeted about, introducing it to her fans as ‘Emma’.

Gaga, who is thought to be getting married to her totally fit boyfriend Taylor Kinney in the summer, was forced to undergo surgery after she kept quiet about an injury and tried to continue touring.

After the op she wrote a message to her Little Monsters thanking them for their support: “Everything happened so fast, but when it came time to face it I reflected on the many stories and experiences you've shared with me about your lives ... you have completely blown my mind.

"As they wheeled me into surgery, I thought about all of your pain and perseverance ... sometimes you are so brave that it terrifies me. I wonder how it's even possible.”

 

That's some mighty fine detail there!

Gaga continued: "So I thought to myself, I'm alive, I'm living my dream, and this is just a bump in the road.

"I'm grateful because this is temporary, and for some it is not. You have changed my

life. I love you and am proud to be a part of your lives.

“If you can do it, I can do it too, and if we stick together we can get through anything."

We tearing up.
