Believe It: Lady Gaga's Meat Dress Will Be Made Into Jerky



Did you actually get hungry while looking at Lady Gaga's infamous meat dress? Well, you may be in luck. According to its creator, Franc Fernandez, the flank-steak frock will be turned into jerky. Yes, jerky.

E! Online recently grilled the Argentinian designer for details about what will become of the edible ensemble Gaga wore to the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards. Fernandez had modeled the dress on matambre, a rolled flank steak dish from his native country.

"The dress will go through a process where it becomes a sort of 'jerky,' and it will be archived," Fernandez revealed to our partners at E!.

"The meat dries out, rather than rotting," he explained. "But it shouldn't be worn again."

According to MTV, almost 50 pounds of steak were used to create the killer look for Lady Gaga, which was assembled in a refrigerated environment and brought to the VMAs in a cooler.

Though the dress made headlines around the world, Fernandez says he has no plans to work with animal innards again anytime soon.

"There's not going to be meat dresses in the future," he tells MTV. "This was made for a specific purpose. It's what it is."
