Lady Gaga may be recovering from hip surgery, but that isn’t stopping the pop star from riding rolling around in style. The Mother Monster is on the road to recovery in a bejeweled, leather line, 24-karat gold wheelchair.
According to the NY Post , Ken Borochov designed the 24-karat gold wheelchair, which he has dubbed the Charity.
Borochov said, “I certainly wasn’t expecting that phone call … [I] have never done a wheelchair but am always up for a challenge and was thrilled to create what I affectionately dubbed the Chariot, a chair fit only for a queen.”
Borochov isn’t in the wheelchair business, but he has made some jewelry for the singer in the past. Borochov has designed crowns and claws for Gaga and has also done pieces for pop stars like Kanye West and Nicki Minaj.
Borochov used his jewelry skills to pimp out Gaga’s wheelchair. According to the Guardian , the wheelchair is plated in 24-carat gold, has a leather canopy, spoke rim wheels, and a reclining seat.
The wheelchair may have put Gaga’s tour on hold , but it hasn’t cramped her style. The pop star is even still posing for Terry Richardson .
