Lady Gaga has applied to do a fashion internship with hat designer Philip Treacy.

The singer made the request after Treacy designed two headpieces for her Monster Ball tour.

She also praised the designer during a recent appearance on the chat show Friday Night with Jonathan Ross.

"She requested an internship but nothing has been set in stone yet," a spokesperson for Treacy told the BBC.

As well as her music, Lady Gaga’s often outlandish style has attracted widespread praise and attention.

She is due to return to the Britain later this month to embark on the second UK leg of her Monster Ball world tour.
