The star poses for the new issue of Vogue Hommes Japan draped in cuts of red meat.

Although the singer is famed for her outrageous outfits, this latest gruesome get-up may be a step too far for some.

Animal rights group PETA have already criticised the decision. Their president Ingrid Newkirk said:

“Lady Gaga's job is to do outlandish things, and this certainly qualifies as outlandish because meat is something you want to avoid putting on or in your body.

“No matter how beautifully it is presented, flesh from a tortured animal is flesh from a tortured animal. Meat represents bloody violence and suffering, so if that's the look they were going for—they achieved it.”

The photos were taken for the magazine by controversial fashion photographer Terry Richardson.

GaGa also poses for the same issue dressed as her male alter-ego Jo Calderone.
