The megastar performer and Quinn of provocations Lady Gaga has landed in the Bulgarian capital Sofia late Saturday evening.
She arrived on her private plane with a two-hour delay.
"I don't know anything about Bulgaria, but hope to learn more after meeting with my fans and the audience," said Lady Gaga when appearing at the Sofia International Airport VIP entrance.
The singer was greeted by scores of enthusiastic fans, who sang her song "Born this Way," shouting "We Love You!"
Lady Gaga gave dozens of autographs and posed for several photo ops.
The star arrived in Bulgaria three days ahead of her anticipated concert, which will be held on August 14th at the Arena Armeets Hall in Sofia.
The Bulgarian capital is the starting point of her European tour.
The show is expected to be extremely impressive with a huge stage and a 5-stories high medieval castle, with 1 000 supporting columns, platforms, balconies, and stairs, covered with special foam that will be pulsating in the rhythm of the music.
The singer is known for generating most of the ideas behind her shows.
