Rio de Janeiro police foiled a bomb plot targeting a Lady Gaga concert on Copacabana Beach, which drew an estimated 2.1 million people on Saturday.

The Civil Police of Rio de Janeiro State, collaborating with the justice ministry, uncovered the plan, which they linked to a group promoting hate speech and radicalising teenagers.

This group reportedly encourages self-harm and violent acts as a means of social connection. The concert, a historic event for the American pop icon, proceeded without incident, according to Rio City Hall.

“The suspects were recruiting participants, including minors, to carry out coordinated attacks using improvised explosives and Molotov cocktails,” the police said in a statement.

The justice ministry said the recruiters identified themselves as members of Gaga’s global fan base, known as the “Little Monsters”.

Ha!....The USA in 100 years!

Still and all 2M is an impressive turnout.

They should use Lady Gaga songs to torture the Gitmo inmates.

Meh, not great, not terrible.

She has some good songs. Reminds me of Madonna. Not incredibly talented, but good at making catchy music.

I call bullshit on this story. This sounds like another corrupt government's attempt to frame some knucklehead in order to disparage those that oppose the government. It's sort of like the Michigan militia that was framed for conspiring to kidnap Governor Whitmer.
