When Gaga made her entrance just after 9 p.m., in a sparkling white ball gown, and struck a pose, the crowd - which included Hillary and Bill Clinton, who received a shout-out from the mistress of ceremonies - leapt to their feet and cheered.
Many dressed for the occasion in ball gowns, tuxedos, and gemstone-drenched smoking jackets masks were sparse (though attendees were required to provide proof of vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test to enter the venue), but there were even a few rhinestone-studded face coverings spotted in Radio City’s teeming lobby beforehand.
It was the second and final performance of “ One Last Time: An Evening With Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga,” and the sold-out audience had come to pay their respects - and in their sequined, bedazzled best. Though unused for the past 18 months, Radio City Music Hall’s 6,105 red velvet chairs will likely need a tune-up by the end of this week thanks to Tony Bennett, Lady Gaga, and the 27 standing ovations the pair received during their miraculous, magnificent concert there on Thursday night (August 5).
