As a six-time Grammy award winning musician, a Golden Globe-winning and Oscar-nominated singer and the ultimate fashion muse, Lady Gaga has become a icon in her own right. But it’s not just the Born This Way singer’s wild talent that has risen her to stardom, but her fearless and outrageous red carpet style that always leaves her audience guessing. The Bad Romance star knows how to make an appearance thanks to her elaborative and adventurous costumes, from her turquoise blue bob to platinum yellow curls, from her glittered green eyebrows to her sapphire blue smoky eye, the Poker Face singer is never afraid to be daring and bold. Throughout the recent years though, the American Horror Story actress has elevated her style to elegant waves and sleek cat eyes, while still keeping her colorful flare with fiery red locks and burgundy smoky eyes. In honor of the Million Reasons diva’s 31st birthday, we take a look back at the her most iconic red carpet moments.
