True ARTpop: Lady Gaga appeared to have channelled famed Botocelli painting, The Birth of Venus, as she made a typically low-key arrival in Athens, Greece, on Wednesday night

Looking booty-ful! Carried by two Lycra-clad hunks as she made her way through the crowds, the 28-year-old pop princess was clad merely in a skimpy shell bra and a racy thong while stepping off her private plane

The five-time Grammy winner struck a Venus pose as covered her ample charms in silver seashells and wore a pink fishnet skirt created by Turkish designer Zeynep Tosun.

The 5ft1in crooner finished off her mermaid-style ensemble with a curly platinum blonde wig and glittery 9-inch platforms.

Two dancers hoisted the Do What U Want hitmaker on their shoulders and paraded her before a crowd of her devoted Greek little monsters.

‘Thank you for the beautiful warm welcome Athens,’ she later tweeted.

Iconic: The Birth of Venus was painted by Sandro Botticelli after he was commissioned by the Medici family of Florence

Dramatic arrival: Hours earlier, Gaga – born Stefani Germanotta – landed her private plane at Athens Airport where she and her dancers emerged in costume

Shameless: Gaga confidently strutted outside her Athens hotel in her barely-there attire

Leaving little to the imagination: The singer flashed her shapely derriere as he made her way to her waiting car

‘We come in the spirit of love, music, and to celebrate your beautiful history. Where classical art began. We belong together. #ARTPOP #artraveAthens.’

Gaga made sure to share three nearly nude Instagrams from the fancy bathroom of her royal suite in Athens as soon as she arrived.

The 28-year-old pop diva wore nothing aside from a sparkly pink thong while reclining on a blue marble shower bench.

‘Aphrodite Lady Shower Greekini, feeling frisky!’ Mother Monster tweeted to her 42.2 million followers.
