Von D before her tattoos (VIDEO) - She went on to become a world famous singing superstar.
But Lady Gaga was just another customer back in 2008, when she received a tattoo from reality star Kat Von D.
The footage was shot in Los Angeles prior to Gaga releasing her début album The Fame which catapulted her onto the world stage.
However the singer, then 22-years-old, certainly resembled the Gaga fans know and love today.
She arrived at the Los Angeles session wearing electric blue skin tight trousers and a long blonde wig with oversized sunglasses.
Kat, whose reality show LA Ink had begun the year before, sported the same long black hair and multiple tattoos, while indulging in a little small talk with her future famous client.
'I love your pants' she tells Gaga before quizzing her on whether she is working on anything 'cool and interesting.'
'I’m a singer and also a songwriter for other artists,' Gaga tells Kat. 'I worked with New Kids on the Block last night, it was rad.'
Kat then inks a design, which appears to be a cluster of entwined roses, on the singer's lower back.
They also discuss Kat's surprisingly long career in the tattoo industry.
'I've been doing this since I was 14 - 12 years,' she tells Gaga, who was pleased with the finished inking.
'That looks great, I love it,' she informs Kat, before complementing her on her 'beautiful work.'
'It's really elegant,' she says. 'The lines are perfect and the designs. Your tattoos are beautiful.'
The singer also makes small talk about her family in New York.
'I have an Italian family. They still live there. I go home and have meatballs.
'They like your tattoos?' asks Kat.
'When I got the first one, they had a heart attack,' says Gaga, whose real name is Stefani Germanotta.
'Then I had a heart attack because I felt bad for not telling them I was going to do it. We're really close.'
The last episode of Kat Von D's LA Ink will air in the U.S. this Thursday.
