Lady Gaga Loves Glee!

Hot on the heels of the Madonna episode, Glee paid tribute to Lady Gaga Tuesday, drawing praise from the often-imitated star.

“I love Glee,” the singer told Entertainment Weekly. “I went to a musical theatre school, and used to dream that someday the students would be singing my songs.”

Tuesday's episode saw New Directions do just that, when the club’s female vocalists — and Kurt — donned some of Gaga’s most memorable looks to rock the auditorium with “Bad Romance.”

But it was Rachel’s duet with Shelby of “Poker Face” that stole the show — a shared final moment between the mother-daughter pair after Shelby came clean about being unprepared for full-time motherhood.

And what did Broadway vet Idina Menzel think of tackling the showstopper?

“I don’t channel Lady Gaga,” Menzel told MTV. “I’m just in awe of Lady Gaga.”
