A regal entrance: Lady Gaga went all-out in a gorgeous gold gown and tiara as she arrived in Dubai on Monday ahead of her first ever concert in the Middle East

‘My fans were so sweet at the airport I was so choked up! I have been dreaming of coming to the Middle East and finally #dreamscometrue,’ she wrote as she shared a number of photos on social media prior to making her way to her hotel.

And she certainly wasn’t disappointed on arrival, declaring the luxurious digs ‘exquisite’ as she gushed about what a ‘privilege’ it was to be in the country and how ‘gracious and kind’ everyonehad been to her already.

The 28-year-old certainly made quite the impression as she landed in Dubai, dressed in a stunning sheer gold gown that was covered in gorgeous sequin and jewelled embellishments.

Fanfare: The pop star was warmly greeted by hoards of screaming fans, while the notoriously generous singer took the time to sign autographs and take photos with each and every one of them

‘What a privilege to be here’: The 28-year-old was overwhelmed by the enthusiasm and dedication of her fans in the United Arab Emirates, a huge smile splashed across her face as she soaked up their love and adoration

‘They have been so gracious and kind to me. #DubaiMonster4Life’: The Born This Way hitmaker kept her cool as she was swarmed by the group of mostly teenagers, all dying to get a piece of their favourite star

The long-sleeved number featured a cape-like style that opened up to great effect when she raised her arms.

It also featured a small cut-out detail on the chest, while the delicate fabric exposed her skimpy nude bodysuit underneath that protected her modesty.

She wore her long platinum tresses in a sleek style that tumbled down around her shoulders, whilea showstopping blue and turquoise jewelled crown sat atop her head.

‘I hope during this trip I can show my true self, with a message of acceptance, tolerance, a respect for individuals of all cultures.’: The songstress was warmly welcomed with a bouquet of flowers as she gears up to debut her artRAVE: The ARTPOP Ball Tour concert at the Meydan Racecourse on Wednesday

Odd woman out: Gaga looked a little out of place in her extravagant outfit as she was flanked by a security team clad in traditional long white dishdasha, with keffiyeh covering their heads

Just call her ‘Lady Dubai’: The star went a little overboard with her make-up, the heavy kohl lining her eyes and bright red-orange lipstick competing with her incredible gown and blue and turquoise jewelled crown, which sat atop her long sleekly-styled platinum tresses

The star went a tad overboard on the make-up, overly dramatic kohl-lined eyes and bright, glossy red-orange lipstick proving too much competition for the statement outfit.

Meanwhile, flanked by security detail who were clad in the traditional long white dishdasha, with keffiyeh covering their heads, the star looked decidedly under-dressed in comparison.

Of course, women in the Arab nation are usually covered from head to toe in black robes known as abaya, their head and neck shrouded by a hijab, while some go even further by donning a niqab that covers the mouth and nose, leaving only their eyes exposed.

Showstopper! The star pulled out all the stops with her gorgeous sheer gold gown, which was covered in gorgeous sequin and jewelled embellishments and featured a cape-like design when she raised her arms, her nude bodysuit protecting her modesty, visible beneath the delicate fabric

In all her glory: Gaga took to Instagram to share a number of photos from her trip so far, including this one as she sized up her luxurious accommodation, which she captioned, ‘Lady Dubai in my absolutely exquisite hotel. What a privilege to be here. They have been so gracious and kind to me. #DubaiMonster4Life’

Upping the glamour: The singer donned some seriously heavy make-up for her landmark visit to the Middle East, wearing a bright pink lip and huge false eyelashes

‘I have been dreaming of coming to the Middle East and finally #dreamscometrue’: The singer was clearly moved by the reaction she got from fans as she arrived at the airport, tweeting that she was ‘so choked up’

Though her wardrobe may have raised a few eyebrows, Gaga was rather covered up and modestfor her.

Once she settled into her luxurious accommodation, she disposed of her heavy garment and stripped off her make-up as she took to the pool for a nighttime swim before bed.

Sharing several photos of her exploits on Instagram, the beauty posed up a storm in a flesh-coloured one-piece swimsuit that revealed her extensive tattoo collection, her hair swept back from her pretty face in a messy updo.

That’s quite the keepsake! One lucky fan got a red lipstick kiss on the shoulder of his white T-shirt before Lady Gaga signed her name below it

‘I had chills the whole time we were with the fans’: The New York-born superstar seemed genuinely surprised at just how widespread her fanbase is

Demure: While women in the Arab nation are usually covered from head to toe in black robes known as abaya, their head and neck shrouded by a hijab, Gaga was demure and covered up for her in the striking garment

‘#bodyrevolution Proud at any size, because the inside is what really counts. Plus, it’s all how you pose! Just ask the supermodels!’ she captioned one snap in which she contorts her body into a figure-flattering shape.

Of course, the Poker Face hitmaker’s physique has been widely talked-about in recent months, seemingly having put on a few pounds and looking healthy as she takes to the stage in her very skimpy, revealing costumes.

Proving she’s above it all, she shared another powerful, dignified message in which she explained that her hope for her trip is to ‘show my true self, with a message of acceptance, tolerance, a respect for individuals of all cultures’.

Sheer beauty: Her stunning gown proved a little tricky to move in, the heavy, all-encompassing material having to be physically lifted up in order for her to walk, revealing her bare legs and skimpy leotard in the process

‘#bodyrevolution Proud at any size, because the inside is what really counts. Plus, it’s all how you pose! Just ask the supermodels!’ Her slightly bigger frame having been the cause of much chatter in recent months, the star posted this snap as she enjoyed a night swim in a flesh-coloured swimsuit

Poolside posing: Gaga was in a reflective mood as she wrote alongside yet another shot of her by the pool: ‘I love a night swim, so quiet, put on some jazz and just soak’
