Thursday March 31, 2011 was the greatest day of my life. @BrookeB15 and I were so determined to meet @ladygaga and get backstage so we decided to make 2 posters that say "This is our 7th + Final Monster Ball. Can we meet you?" We stayed up until 1230 the night before rubbing that glitter and grease all over our posters and then got in line for the Monster Ball the next morning at 6:30 am: First in line. It was THE hottest day ever and we were burning outside. Since it was our last concert, we wanted a new experience so we decided to stand in the right corner rather than our usual end of catwalk or left corner. We had the best time and danced like crazy! We made so much eye contact with Gaga and interacted with the dancers a lot! After Money Honey, we held up our signs and Gaga read them out loud and said "Sure!" After the concert, her security Ed and Adam told us to follow them and they led us backstage. There was a huge line of people who (I assume) paid for meet and greets and/or have connections. When it was finally my turn to meet Gaga, she looked at me and said, "Are you Marc?" and that was when i burst into tears out of happiness and shock. She held me and said, "Dont cry, i love you" and i asked "How the hell do you remember so many people?" and she said "*sigh* i try really hard to" I then asked her if she had my Monster Belt and it took a second for her to register it and she said "of course i do!" and I gave her my essay and told her about it and she said "I am so proud of you." and she asked ME to sign it for HER. I was shaking so hard it looks like a scribble haha. I told her she didnt have to read it all as she was flipping through the pages, and she was like, "Of course I'm gonna read it all crazy!" I told her i didn't get my grade yet, and she said, "Make sure you tweet me when you get your grade, i want to know" I then asked her to sign my phone case, and i took a picture with her and before i left i said, "OH! wait. what is the song you played for Perez when I met you in Detroit? Was it Judas?" and she said "Nope." and i said, "Can you tell me?" and she said "Yes, it was a song called Bad Kids" and i said "YUSSS" she said she didnt know what the fuck to do cause there are so many that can be singles and i said, "Just release them all!" and then i said i would see her at the BTWball if not sooner and she said she was thinking of changing it to The Monster Ball 3.0: BTW tour and i said "NO! We all like that you have 3 balls!" and she chuckled. I then gave her one last hug and left. Thank you so much for everything Gaga. i love you more than you could ever imagine. You have forever changed my life for the better. <3
