Overview

Lady Gaga's "Paparazzi" Performance at the 2009 VMAs and the "I'm Your Biggest Fan" TikTok Trend refers to a live performance of Lady Gaga's song "Paparazzi" at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards and a lip dub trend on TikTok using a section of the performance where Gaga sings, "I'm your biggest fan I'll follow you until you love me," respectively. The theatric performance of the song, which features Gaga fake bleeding halfway through, has been praised as iconic in the years following, with some believing it was underappreciated because of Kanye West Interrupting Taylor Swift on the same night. The trend became popular on TikTok in August 2022.
