Lady Gaga’s Dubai Meydan show is truly going to be unlike any Lady Gaga show that has taken place, or will take place anywhere in the world.

She promises it will be amazing, but her sensitivity to local customs has changed the tone and tenor of what her little monsters are used to.

The 'ArtRave: The Artpop Ball Tour' kicks off tonight, but here is what you are unlikely to see in Dubai

No Fishnets

The eccentric singer had stripped to almost nothing on stage at Madison Square Gardens, when she was left wearing a thong and fishnet tights.

But, Madison Square Gardens is not the Meydan and Gaga seems to be well aware of that.

The pop diva will censor her concert to respect local cultural traditions.

Gaga categorically said she respects the culture here and this show will be appropriate for all fans in the UAE.

No Roasting

During her SXSW (South By Southwest) show, in true Lady Gaga fashion, Mother Monster delighted, confused, and maybe even disgusted her audience with a wild series of antics.

She was carried on the stage tied horizontally to a pole like a roasting meat.

But at the Meydan she might feel the heat if she takes to the roasting pole.

No Meat and Blood

During the 2009 VMA’s performance Gaga took the opportunity to get blood all over those pretty white costumes while performing ‘Paparazzi’.

And then the pop star showed up in a meat dress in 2010.

In 2011, for the Grammy Awards she was inside an egg for the red carpet.

Don't ask what was she wearing.

Gaga you should not go for the gross-out at Meydan.

No Vomiting

During her SXSW performance Gaga allowed British artist Millie Brown to vomit neon green sludge all over her. Yes. All over and it looked disgusting.

She might want to censor that as well.

Liquid alert

Gaga, in most of her shows pours and spews liquids onto the audience, and then herself.

It will be wise for Gaga to leave that alone.
