Lady GaGa Shaves Head In Tribute To Friend's Mother

Lady GaGa has shaved part of her head as a tribute to the late mother of her friend Terry Richardson.

The pop star has had a chevron shape shaved into the back of her head - and she posted a snap of her new hairdo on her own Little Monsters social networking site.

The image was accompanied with the caption: "I did it for u Terry. I'm sorry about ure mommy. She has princess die, but were all princess high."

Photographer Richardson, who worked with GaGa on a book of photos from her Monster Ball tour, mentioned his mother's death on his Twitter account, posting: "R.I.P. Annie Lomax, My Mom 1938-2012"

GaGa also showed fans a front view of her hair, which was tied up in a bun.

She tweeted the second image with the caption: "But we still have glamour in the front."

GaGa paid tribute to Princess Di and Amy Winehouse in her recent live shows in London.
