Lady Gaga has always enjoyed pushing the boundaries of fashion—if not good taste—with her clothing choices, whether it’s parading around pantless in Paris or sporting a dress made of raw meat.

But using a wheelchair as a fashion accessory—rolling out on stage in front of an audience of 1000 people in Sydney Town Hall in Australia on Thursday—has some wondering if the pop provocateur has gone too far.

that report also left out how they pelted her with eggs, too... so if they brought eggs to her concert, they were planning on this beforehand... sounds like some editing was done to make it seem like it was her style that was pissing people off, where it seems like it was just her...
