Lady Gaga has been named Billboard’s Woman Of The Year.
The music publication will be gracing Mrs Gaga with the award at the end of their Women in Music event this year.
Gaga seemed pretty taken aback by the announcement, another accolade being added to her staggering 28 million album sales and six Grammy awards. Not too shabby.

Billboard will be holding the celebration at Cipriani Midtownin New York City on 11 December, with Lifetime airing highlights of the event on 18 December.
"We're delighted to partner with Billboard on this special event, bringing it to a mass audience for the first time ever," executive vice president of LifetimeLiz Gateley said today.
"Lady Gaga is an extraordinary artist, emblematic of the strength, courage and fortitude that Lifetime celebrates, and we are thrilled to offer our platform to recognise her in every way she deserves."
Winners of the award in the past have included Beyonce, Katy Perry and Taylor Swift.
Back in July, Lady Gaga took a tumble on stage when performing a duet of Cole Porter's 'Anything Goes' withTony Bennett in Monaco.
The singer released her duet album Cheek To Cheek with Bennett back in 2014, the two embarking on a 36 show tour across Europe and North America in support of the record.
