The always outrageous Scissor Sisters will open Lady GaGa's third North American leg of her Monster Ball Tour, GagaDaily.com first reported.
Scissor Sisters will join Lady GaGa in Atlantic City's Boardwalk Hall on February 19 after the Alejandro singer takes a much needed two-month break.
The group kicked off their campy Fairy Tale Tour last month in Atlanta to rave reviews. Spin Magazine said the show was “the Scissor Sisters at their best.”
Scissor Sisters' third studio album, Night Work, has been described as the band's gayest yet.
“Before they were suggestive; now they're as straightforward as possible with homosexuality in all its forms,” Sputnikmusic.com said.
Members of the Scissor Sisters insist the group is not a gay band, but its three openly gay members, Jake Shears, Babydaddy and Del Marquis, have clearly influenced its music. Tracks often deal with themes that resonate with the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community.
Lady GaGa's tweets welcomed users to Apple's newly minted social network Ping. Omitted from her feed, however, were her pro-gay marriage tweets.
