Lady Gaga shared an unexpected moment with the Duchess Of Cornwall, after she performed at the Royal Variety Show on Tuesday (7 December).
As is tradition, the singer lined up with the rest of the acts to be greeted by the royals, following the annual Christmas show.
As Prince Charles and Camilla introduced themselves to Gaga, the Duchess then revealed a surprising thing they have in common.
