Lady Gaga has warm memories of her precious close friend and also music partner Tony Bennett, that passed away on Friday (July 21) at the age of 96.
In a brand-new People cover tale bearing in mind the late tale, the magazine reviewed a 2014 meeting with Gaga, in which she shared that Bennett laid out a tattoo of a trumpet for her.
“I asked Tony to draw me a trumpet, and he sketched me Miles Davis’ trumpet,” she remembered. “Then I had it tattooed with his last name, Benedetto, underneath. Just so I would always remember this time together.”
Their 2014 jazz cd, Cheek to Cheek, debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 cds graph. After Bennett was identified with Alzheimer’s illness in 2016, he took place to launch a 2nd jazz cd with Gaga, entitled Love for Sale, in 2021.
“Tony heard me sing [‘Orange Colored Sky’] and he asked to meet me,” Gaga claimed in 2014. “He said, ‘Do you want to do a jazz album together?’ I said, ‘Of course I do!’ We were fast friends.”
In 2021, Bennett introduced that he was retiring from touring and performing after one last program in August of that year with Gaga at Radio City Music Hall qualified “One Last Time.”
