“It’s gonna be epic”: Fans react as Lady Gaga announces her performance ‘Mayhem On The Beach’ in Brazil 

Lady Gaga announced that she will be performing in Rio after years and promises to cause Mayhem on the Beach. The announcement since then has caused an uproar amongst her fans as they claim, "It’s gonna be epic.”

The Grammy winner revealed her return to Rio, Brazil, after years with a massive free concert at Copacabana Beach on May 3, 2025. The announcement was made on February 21, 2025, by the singer, disclosing her return to Rio for the first time since 2012.

According to the social media announcement, she stated:

"It’s a great honor to be asked to sing for Rio—for my whole career the fans in Brazil have been part of the lifeblood of the little monsters."

Referring to her fans as "little monsters," an endearment she has always used for them, she continues to express her excitement over this opportunity and comeback:

"I’ve been dying to come perform for you for years and was heartbroken when I had to cancel years ago because I was hospitalized. Your understanding that I needed that time to heal meant the world to me."

She ends with the promise of creating "Mayhem" on the beach, a direct reference to the title of her upcoming album.

"I am now coming back and I feel better than ever and am working so hard to make sure this show is one you will never forget. Get ready for MAYHEM on the beach."

Gaga was initially supposed to have a concert in the capital city back in 2017; however, she had to cancel her "Rock in Rio" performance at the last minute due to being in severe physical pain and getting hospitalized.
