The Porter Magazine Summer 2014 issue features a surprisingly subdued Lady Gaga. The pop diva is usually dressed in wacky, barely-there fashions and dons crazy hairdos with big shades -- sometimes you actually wonder what she would looks sans the oddities. Porter Magazine, a subsidiary of Net-A-Porter.com, will give you a glimpse in its upcoming issue.
The publication has stripped away Gaga's usual getup and features her in a rare, but pure state. The editorial entitled 'Gaga -- The Lady' features her sitting on a stool, donning a floor-length, geisha-like robe and rocking a fringe-full hairdo of one (yes, one) solid color. She also has little to zero makeup on, but confidently gazes into the camera's lens.
This is only the second issue of Porter Magazine and it has already set the standards high for cover models: first Gisele Bundchen and now Lady Gaga -- I wonder who's next?
