Singer Lady GaGa could be set to don her PokerFace for real after being invited to play for €100,000. The controversial celebrity is set to embark on her fame Kills tour with fellow American Kanye West. But it's hoped she'll take time out to play at the Ladbrokes Irish Poker Festival in Killarney next month. GaGa has been invited by organisers Ladbrokes, who have already secured the services of another pop star.
Newly appointed Head of Poker Kate McLennan said: "There's a break in her tour dates which would allow her to play in the tournament. "It would be great if she could come and we'll even make room for Kanye!" PokerFace singer Gaga is believed to be a big fan of the Texas Hold 'Em version of the game. So too, is Boyzones's Shane Lynch, who will be taking on the professionals after learning to play before his recent comeback tour.
Ladbrokes are now running a book on the two performing an impromptu duet at next weekend's event. McLennan added: "The question everyone wants to know is if Lady Gaga can make sweet music on the green baize." The tournament, which runs between 2-4 October, has a first prize of €100,000
