Girls aloud tights stop the lady going gaga

It is tights and celeb story of the week.

Lady Gaga once averted an awards show fashion disaster by borrowing a pair of pantyhose from British pop stars Girls Aloud.

The hitmaker was scheduled to perform at the Brit Awards in London in 2009 with the Pet Shop Boys, but suffered a last-minute panic when she realised she had forgotten a vital part of her costume.

Gaga approached Girls Aloud star Nicola Roberts backstage and was relieved when the singer handed over a much-needed pair of tights.

Its good to hear that Lady Gaga needed the tights.  In these days of bare legs we are told that bare is best, but Lady Gaga obviously realised that wouldn't she look so good without her tights.  I wonder if Nicola gave Lady Gaga gave Lady Gaga a clean pair, or if Lady Gaga had to make do with a worn pair.  That would be something for pantyhose perverts, a pair of tights worn by Nicola Roberts and Lady Gaga.

In an interview with Roberts for Britain's Mtv Music, Gaga says, "Last time we met was at the Brits. Actually, you might not even know this but you've given me a present once before. When we were backstage at the Brits - when I was very new - I was performing with the Pet Shop Boys and I needed pantyhose.

"I was knocking on Girls Aloud's door and you gave them to me. So thank you for my hose."

So lets celebrate Ms Roberts in tights.  After all without her tights Lady Gaga might not have made it big, and then we wouldn't have the joy of Lady Gaga in tights.

And for all you guys who like to check the quality of tights close up:

But Nicola Roberts was not the only member of Girls Aloud who was a great ambassador for tights.  Sarah Harding showed how good a girl could look in tights too.  Ahhhh Sarah Harding my favourite lesbian fantasy is snogging her
