Fans and bodyguards mistook Lady Gaga for a drag queen. You can see the mishap on the recording

On September 17, Gaga played in Miami for 65,000. people on the tour promoting her latest album, “Chromatica”. After the concert ended near the Hard Rock Stadium, a drag queen model reappeared. This time the resemblance was so striking that confused fans followed the performer asking for photos and autographs. She also confused the bodyguards.

Security guards escorted a “fake” star

In recent days, a recording has been made available on Twitter showing the star being escorted by security guards from the concert venue after Saturday’s concert by Lady Gaga in Miami, followed by a crowd of fans. It turned out not to be a Grammy winner, but a follower. Penelopy Jean has been playing Gaga for 10 years, recreating her outfits, make-up and choreographies.

Behind the created character is 35-year-old Brazilian Renato Ricci, who also works as a DJ and TV host. He went to the concert with his friends in a drug, which is a complete stylization that made him look like his favorite artist. Although Ricci’s Penelope Jean is used to being asked for photos, she didn’t expect to be escorted by fans after the performance … by a team of the singer’s bodyguards, who also mistaken her for the real Gaga. Despite translations from the drag queen, the crowd continued to follow her. She shared a funny video where the crowd realizes there is a mistake.

The moment the security guards realized I wasn’t Gaga

Jean wrote under the recording on her official profile.

“I’m sure Gaga feels like this all the time”

Ricci, who is behind the character, talked about the situation of NBC News.

Several people came to me for photos because I was in disguise. This is perfectly normal. Only at the end of the concert did the crowds become huge. I was going out with my friends and when I turned around I saw six bodyguards behind me. I lost my friends and started to panic. I’m sure Gaga feels like this all the time

– He said. He will also add that he hopes that Lady Gaga will find out about the unusual event and see the recording. “I think she’ll laugh and in that case, she would say the same to the crowd as I do,” commented Ricci. He also changed the name of his profile to Dollar Tree Gaga. The artist did not refer to the failure of fans and bodyguards. In 2019, however, she met Penelope Jean. Privately, she is also a drug fan. She made a guest appearance in the “RuPaul’s Drag Race” program, supporting the participants for whom she is a scenic inspiration.
