Lady Gaga dresses down - and flies low - as she stops for coffee in Los Angeles

Off-duty: Lady Gaga leaves the costumes at home as she stops for coffee in Los Angeles


It's hard to believe at first glance that this is the garish and outrageous Lady Gaga.

But on closer inspection, underneath that casual attire - casual for her at least - the Telephone star is unmistakable.

In what can only be described as an extremely rare dressed-down day for the pop star, Gaga had left the rubber, lace and studs at home as she stopped for coffee in Los Angeles last week.

Her hair loose and unbrushed around her shoulders, she seemed a little taken aback as she was confronted by the cameras as she left the coffee shop with a friend on Thursday afternoon.

Maybe it was because she was caught wearing clothes not normally seen on the controversial singer.

Or maybe it was because the zipper on her shorts hadn't been fastened properly, leaving a gaping hole.

Of course, dressing down completely clearly wasn't an option for Gaga, who topped off her floral bomber jacket and pink shorts with some knee-length biker boots complete with metal shields.

She clutched her purse and her mobile phone as she made her way to a waiting Rolls Royce.

The singer, 24, is taking a break from her Monster Ball world tour, which she brings to the UK at the end of this month.

She recently claimed that she is never off duty and insisted that fashion is much more than just clothes to her.

She said: 'I consider myself to be a performance artist. Every time you see me, it's performance. When I'm sleeping, it's performance.'

But every artist deserves a day off, even Gaga, who yesterday was included in US magazine Time’s annual 100 'movers and shakers' list.
