Lady Gaga rocked her Today show performance for the hometown crowd in NYC this morning.

But surprisingly, her costumes were relatively tame. Gaga wore a white pant suit with a bra and then switched into a black jumpsuit with a matching bra.

Maybe Mother Monster kept it PG for national TV or she's still suffering post-traumatic stress from that fall or trying to avoid any contact lens controversies—it could be so many things—but there were no lobster hats, yellow hair and firework bras this time round.

The show still had major dramz, though.

 

 

 

 

 

 

A record-breaking crowd of approximately 20,000 came to watch the Lady sing mash-ups of "Bad Romance," "Fame Monster" and her new song "You and I," among others. And intermittent rain showers amid NYC's sweltering heat soaked the singer and the crowd.

That just makes her fierce half-hour set even more legendary, right?
