Singer Lady Gaga made some kind of statement when she wore a dress made of meat to the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards. She also made an impression on the higher ups at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, because they've acquired her steak frock to put on display. The dress is from now and will be available for viewing until February 2012.

Lady Gaga delivered her emblematic decision to put on the dress to Ellen DeGeneres: "Well, it is certainly no disrespect to anyone that is vegan or vegetarian. As you know, I am the most judgment-free human being on the earth. However, it has many interpretations for me this evening. If we don't stand up for what we believe in and if we don't fight for our rights, pretty soon we're going to have as much rights as the meat on our own bones. And, I am not a piece of meat." Later, Time Magazine called the dress the Best Fashion Statement of 2010.

If you are surprising whether it is safe to be within a 50-meter radius of the meaty marvel, don’t fear, it's been cured to prevent rotting. A taxidermy expert in California stored it in a meat locker before expertly preserving it with a chemical bath. This altered the texture and color of the original outfit, but it has been touched up with paint to closely look like what it looked like last year.
