Lady Gaga sustains burns in bizarre midnight fire ritual

Unusual pop icon Lady Gaga is reportedly being treated at a Los Angeles county hospital for third degree burns, which she sustained during a bizarre ritual at her $40 million Beverley Hills mansion. The eccentric star is also undergoing surgery later this afternoon for a skin graft. According to Manuel Perez, a gardener at her estate, the star had instructed him to create a pit filled with coal and dry foliage at the recess of the garden.  He said Gaga had told him the pit would be used for a bonfire. Esther Lamb, a maid working at Gaga’s estate, says she was woken from sleep by a woman shouting at midnight. Upon looking out her window from the maids quarters, Lamb witnessed a bizarre ritual, in which she reportedly saw Gaga dressed in a flowing black robe, dancing around a huge bonfire, screaming. Gaga then plunged herself into the flames. Lamb immediately called 911, and ran out to the garden shouting for help. Sources at the hospital report that a screaming crying Gaga was wheeled in by paramedics at 1am, covered in bruises and burns.

Both paramedics who responded to the emergency call, have said that Gaga was hallucinating in the ambulance and speaking in a strange language, often nodding her head as though she was conversing with someone. Said paramedic Michael Harris, “Her eyes were glazed over and she just focused on one spot in the ambulance, she had her arms outstretched like she wanted to hug someone.” Harris further went on to say that when he asked her to calm down, and take deep breaths, Gaga started repeating “I have to go, I have to go.” When questioned on where she has to go, Gaga said “My dark prince is asking for me and I have to pass through the fire to be with him ‘cos that’s where he lives.”

Friends of the star have refused to comment. The pop icon was also photographed at various events in November last year and January this year with cuts, bruises and burns on her arms and legs. At the time she said she had been burnt with curling tongs. Gaga raised eyebrows last year when she wore a dress made of raw meat to the MTV Awards, and again earlier this year after she emerged from a giant egg at the Grammy Awards, looking other-worldly with horn-like prosthetics on her cheekbones and shoulders. 

Critics say that the “dark prince” is the words often used by Occult worshippers when referring to Satan. Suspicion about Gaga’s affiliation to Satanism and its practices are clearly depicted through the various symbols and imagery in her music videos.

Both Perez and Lamb have been dismissed from their duties for speaking to the press. Gaga’s agents have thus far been tight lipped about the bizarre fire ritual, and media publicity is being avoided via threats of lawsuits. Analysts say that they are not surprised by the silence, as revelation of  such bizarre practices will shine the spotlight on the music industry and the many dark truths that it conceals.
