Lady Gaga, get real

Lady Gaga wants to go shopping in Bangkok — for a fake Rolex.

The singer made the comment to her 24 million Twitter followers, sparking an online uproar Thursday in Thailand where some fans called it offensive, insulting and bad for the country's image.

It's the latest publicity-making turn of events as The Born This Way Ball travels through Asia. Lady Gaga posted her tweet shortly after she arrived Wednesday night: "I just landed in Bangkok baby! Ready for 50,000 screaming Thai monsters. I wanna get lost in a lady market and buy fake Rolex."

If Lady Gaga does have time to shop in Bangkok, she'll see that the city has more to offer than just fake watches, a Thai fan sarcastically noted on his Facebook page.

"Welcome to the land of counterfeit products, love," he said. "I'm sure there are plenty of fake Gaga CDs too."
