David Bowie’s Son Responds to Gaga’s Grammy Performance with Cryptic Tweet
Last night, Lady Gaga paid tribute to David Bowie by singing a medley of 10 of his famous songs at the Grammys.
Gaga's performance definitely generated some buzz, with many sharing their thoughts on social media, including Bowie's son Duncan Jones, who tweeted the dictionary definition of “gaga.” He wrote, "'overexcited or irrational, typically as a result of infatuation or excessive enthusiasm; mentally confused.' Damn it! What IS that word!?”
His tweet has left many to wonder what exactly he was trying to convey about the performance. See what others tweeted about Gaga's performance.

The tribute came just over a month after Bowie died of cancer at the age of 69.
