A video from the 2025 Grammy Awards has gone viral, and it features none other than Mother Monster, Lady Gaga, being chaotic. At that particular moment, Gaga decided to turn Bruno Mars into her personal maraca during their performance at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.
In the video, as the music starts vibing harder, Gaga is seen dancing. Then, BAM! She grabs Bruno by the shoulders and starts shaking him. It was so random, and so perfectly Gaga that X immediately lost mind.
People were LOL-ing so hard they probably had to pause their scrolling midway to laugh.
A user hilariously noted:
"Gaga's got a tight grip."
Another user added:
"That is sibling energy right there lmfaooo 😭🤣"
A user mentioned:
"Bruno was like, Why was I standing next to her😂"
A user quipped:
"Bruno was just vibing and suddenly became a hostage."
A user joked:
"She said ‘you’re mine now’ and Bruno had to accept his fate."
A comment read:
"She really said you better get into it 😂😂😮💨"
Another comment read:
"Taylor with a whole bottle is taking me out so bad. She and Gaga are a vibe."
"Me to my friends when the beat drops", a user stated.
There was actually a point to this chaos
Before you think this was just another “Gaga being Gaga” situation, there was some serious depth behind all the shaking and shimmying.
When Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars took the stage together to perform a hauntingly beautiful rendition of California Dreamin’, it was a full-blown emotional rollercoaster.
The performance served as a tribute to California's recent struggles with devastating wildfires and first responders.
Lady Gaga's fashion could start its own fan club
If there’s one thing Lady Gaga never fails to do, it's to serve looks. For this performance, she channeled a full-on flower child energy in a dreamy '70s-inspired white floral maxi dress.
Meanwhile, Bruno showed up looking like he stepped straight out of a Western movie set in heaven, rocking a tan suit and a cowboy hat combo that somehow worked better than it should have.
Together, they looked less like performers and more like the coolest duo at Coachella who knows how to sing.
Winning while woke
Not only did Gaga and Bruno slay the stage, but they also cleaned up in the awards department. Their collab track Die With a Smile snagged two nominations—Song of the Year and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance.
Lady Gaga emphasized to viewers during her acceptance speech that music transcends hooks and dance moves to function as a means of creating emotional bonds.
She delivered powerful remarks about trans visibility that led to high applause across the entire venue.
Bruno expressed his praise for working with the legendary Lady Gaga whom he labeled an "icon".
Other highlights: Beyoncé breaks barriers, Sabrina slays, and Chappell Roan reigns supreme
Of course, the Grammys wouldn’t be complete without a few other jaw-dropping moments.
Sabrina Carpenter won her first-ever Grammy for Best Pop Vocal Album (Short n’ Sweet ), proving that she’s officially graduated from Disney Channel darling to certified pop star.
Meanwhile, Chappell Roan took home the coveted Best New Artist award.
And then there was Beyoncé. Queen Bey made history yet again by becoming the first Black woman to win a Grammy in the country music category in 50 years.
