ROUGH CUT - NO REPORTER NARRATION

Pop diva Lady Gaga lived up to her reputation for doing things on a grand scale on Sunday (November 10) as she donned what she called the world's first flying dress.

Gaga, known as much for her off-the-wall performances and outrageous costumes as for her music, was strapped into a contraption mounted on a flat disk and fronted by a molded body suit. It hoisted her aloft before a horde of media and industry types.

The dress, which she dubbed "VOLANTIS," may only have risen a few feet off the ground and propelled her perhaps 20 feet before alighting. But no matter, Gaga was, well, gaga, letting out a joyous screech after her "flight" in a warehouse at the decidedly unglamorous Brooklyn Navy Yard.

The event was one of many over several days that Gaga has staged in conjunction with the U.S. launch of ARTPOP.
