You kind of assume that if you won an award as huge as a Grammy, youd place it on something super sturdy and luxe-looking, like a gold pedestal. Well, Lady Gaga just inadvertently revealed that she keeps her Grammys on...an IKEA shelf.
Lady Gaga shared a pic on Instagram and Twitter over the weekend of herself posing with a framed photo of the soundtrack album from her hit movie, A Star Is Born, which just went platinum. In the background of the shot, you can see a white shelf packed with eight Grammy awards. "A year ago, A Star was Born, and here we are 6 times pink platinum, she wrote in the caption, referencing both her success and new 'do.
It wasn't long before people picked up on the fact that Gagas shelf looks like it's totally from IKEA. "Lady Gaga out here putting her Grammys in an IKEA bookshelf," wrote an Instagram follower. "Shes a woman of the people," said another.

Meanwhile, on Twitter one fan posed the burning question to Mother Monster herself. "You display these awards on an IKEA shelf??" they asked.

This isnt the only part of Gagas house thats down to Earth. Earlier this year, fans learned that her basement is super normal.
Gaga was on the cover of Allure earlier this year, and the interview in her Hollywood Hills home included a tour of Lady Gaga's basement . Heres an excerpt from the writer:
"I am in a basement. If you are a suburbia-bred American, its probably the basement of your youth: parquet floor, a stack of board games in the corner, those plastic Container Store bins with drawers that are stuffed with white things I can only assume are T-shirts from high school concerts and charity 5Ks. There is a dry-erase board on one wall."
SoIKEA furniture and parquet-floored basements. Such is the life of Lady Gaga.
