So many people these days have no idea who Lady Godiva was. This is a great way from people to learn a bit of history!

I thought the story of Lady Godiva was more myth than actual history.

@LoxleyAbbey This is true! You mention "Godiva" and some people think you're talking about a brand of chocolate!

Bikini, bummer...lol. But, living history is the best way to teach our children.Thanks for that.

I might be completely wrong though??

The cover of Lady Gaga's 3rd studio album and 2nd LP ("Born This Way") lays reference to a famous painting of Lady Godiva by John Collier. However, instead of Lady Godiva riding on a horse, Lady Gaga is riding on a unicorn. The first single off of "Born This Way" is called "Hooker On A Church Corner" and again lays reference to the album cover in which Lady Godiva is displayed. This is just a rumour but i hope its true!! GaGa has been leaving lots of little clues in her tweets and interviews etc

I figured she would at least live in a double wide and would at least tell the story without stumbling

@welovechamp

No worries...you just get so many nasty comments that it's easy to misunderstand context. We had a previous vid up from the year before, but removed it because of a few issues...one being the 'related videos' that it was placed with...not very flattering!

Cheers!
