Lady Gaga has a teddy bear thrown at her while performing live

Lady Gaga kept her cool as she has a teddy bear thrown at her while performing live on stage in Toronto on Saturday.

The superstar, 39, had to dodge the flying object mid song as she wowed audience at the Rogers Centre in Canada.

Footage taken from an audience member near the stage showed Gaga singing intently on the microphone as the teddy was launched causing her to swiftly move to one side to avoid it.

Afterwards she carried on like a true professional as if nothing had happened.

The fan who shared the clip on Twitter, Jo Shelton exclusively told MailOnline of the incident: ‘I decided to record a part of Gaga’s finale because Hold My Hand is such a beautiful piece and is very meaningful to me. 

‘I accidentally got this incident on video, and at first we didn’t know who threw it or what the object even was, probably due to the fact that Gaga is an absolute professional and did not miss a beat. 

‘I wanted to share it with other fans to discourage people from throwing things on stage because no matter how well intentioned you are, you can never predict where something will land when thrown.’

As Jo shared the clip on Twitter called out the dangers of objects being thrown at performers on stage, writing: ‘how do some fans think this is okay… this is so dangerous and sad. :(.’

Another wrote: ‘this is so not ok holy s**t’ while another commented with angry face emojis.

Gaga looked as incredible as ever for her performance in a black leather bodysuit, sheer tight, long boots and an edgy matching jacket. 

It comes after the Grammy-winning performer shared a promotional teaser for the upcoming superhero movie Joker: Folie a Deux, as she confirmed she will star in the film. 

Development on a sequel to Joker was first discussed after the release of the 2019 film.

The movie starred Joaquin Phoenix, who portrayed the titular supervillain, as he takes up his new persona.

The film was met with much praise, and the actor received the Academy Award for Best Actor for his work on the project.

Although many expected that a follow-up film would be produced, director Todd Phillips initially stated that he would not be working on another project centered on the character.

However, development on Joker: Folie a Deux was subsequently confirmed this past June.

It was also noted that Phoenix and Phillips would both return to work on the movie.

Gaga was first reported to have been involved with the project this past June, when it was noted that she was in talks to portray Harley Quinn. 

The supervillain was previously portrayed by Margot Robbie in several films set in the DC Extended Universe. At the time, it was noted that the movie would potentially be structured as a musical. 

The hitmaker subsequently confirmed that she was involved with the movie’s production after she shared a promotional teaser to her Twitter account on Thursday.

In the clip, the silhouettes of both the singer and Phoenix were seen dancing with each other, and the latter’s laughing was heard at the end of the video.

Joker: Folie a Deux is currently expected to premiere on October 4, 2024.
