lady gaga blonde wig fans little monsters pleather coat leather coat heels

At first glance we thought she was Shakira!

Lady Gaga is busy prepping for her VMA performance, and we almost didn't recognize her when she left the studio in N.Y.C. last night after rehearsals!

Mother Monster has been sporting a variety of wigs lately, and we think blonde, long and curly is her best look to date! She better watch out, though, because the locks also slightly resemble her nemesis Madonna!

According to reports, the "Applause" singer will open the show this Sunday. Not only that, but directly after she hits the stage, the new Kia hampster commercial featuring her music will make its debut.

Gagaloo is back in full force!
