The following is a Nebraska Calderone *exclusive* inside story
So yesterday I went to the museum downtown and got to see Gaga's meat dress. The old lady that was telling us about it told us that the taxedermist that was supposed to preserve it really ended up ruining it. It has been hydrated and dehydrated many times in an attempt to keep it's original size but that didn't work out. It was also bleached so while it may look like it still has color it is actually painted red. It is stuck to the plaster mannequin which is causing it to slowly erode. Eventually the meat dress will be no more.
