Lady Gaga broke cried onstage at the Nottingham Trent FM Arena last night in an emotional start to her latest UK tour.
The 24-year-old pop megastar dedicated her song 'Brown Eyes' to her ill grandfather but was forced to pause half way through to wipe away the tears.
Dedicating the song to him, she told the sell-out crowd: "If we all sing loud enough, maybe he can hear us!"

The UK leg of The Monster Ball tour continues at the Birmingham LG Arena tonight before taking in two nights at London O2 Arena, two at the Manchester Evening News Arena and a final show at Sheffield Arena.
