Just last week Lady Gaga said, "I would rather die than have my fans not see me in a pair of high heels. I'd never give up my wigs and hats for anything."

It turns out the Ga will remove her crazy getups for something: deep vein thrombosis. The crew on her flight from London back to the U.S. this week thought the pop star was showing symptoms of the blood disorder when her legs began expanding inside of her black and yellow McQueen catsuit. Not only was Gaga forced to change out of her ensemble, but the suit was so hard to take off that she needed help undressing.

Apparently Gaga was most peeved about stepping out of her blue Armadillo heels. We wonder what she changed into on the flight. Something tells us she doesn't keep a pair of jeans and a t-shirt in her carry-on.
