Lady Gaga has commanded praise for her stripped back performance at the 2023 Oscars.
The popular singer walked the champagne carpet at the 95th Academy Awards in a stunning black Versace gown, and a full face of her makeup line Haus Labs.
However, when she took the stage to perform an acoustic version of Hold My Hand, the 36-year-old ditched her makeup, and donned a t-shirt and ripped jeans.
