Lady Gaga has just been announced to perform the 71st annual Columbus Day Parade, which will take place on Monday, October 12th in New York City. The parade brings together 35,000 Italian Americans celebrating their rich heritage and culture.

It will be Gaga's second performance at the event -- she first played there exactly 10 years ago when she was just nineteen. She sang a song called "No Floods" from her very first EP as Stefani Germanotta, and wowed the crowd with her vocals. "She's only nineteen and what a voice," said one of the hosts during the live broadcast on NBC.

Gaga and her mother will also be honored with a Humanitarian award for her work with the Born This Way Foundation. The show will be broadcast live on ABC7 New York at noon.

Update: Unfortunately, Lady Gaga did not appear at the event, even though her performance was announced in the official UNICO press release. We apologize for the misinformation.
