Lady Gaga Sells Tickets Costing $2,500 to Raise Funds for Born This Way Foundation

As a fundraiser for her Born This Way Foundation, Lady Gaga is selling tickets to a SoulCycle class in Chicago with her. You're going to have to shell out $1,000 to smell Lady Gaga's sweat, but a bike directly next to her, where the sweat of Gaga could fly onto your thirsty, thirsty skin, will cost you $2,500.

The class will take place April 21.

According to US weekly, there is a catch though: Lady Gaga is most certainly in better shape than you are. We've all seen every nook and cranny (or lack thereof) on her body. This is a woman who regularly spends 120 minutes singing and dancing on stage, in heels. It's no easy feat. What we're trying to say is, you're going to feel pretty crappy about yourself once this class is over.

But hey! Ticket proceeds go to a charitable foundation so if you've got a couple spare Ks lying around, give it a shot! See if you can't out-rep Lady Gaga herself. And you could probably make that money back on eBay if you're able to get a full vial of Gaga's sweat. Those Little Monsters are enthusiastic.

In another news, Lady Gaga - plus other celebrities and many, many fans - reached out to Taylor Swift on Thursday, April 9, tweeting at the country-turned-pop star after Swift broke the news that her mother has been diagnosed with cancer.

Swift, 25, announced the sad update on Thursday in a Tumblr post. She gave few details on Andrea Swift's condition, but told supporters "I'm writing to you with an update I wish I wasn't giving you, but it's important and I'm used to sharing important events in my life with you."
