Lady Gaga has splashed out £12,000 on a bowling bash for her friends and artRAVE crew members, which also involved karaoke with her pet bulldog Asia.

The 28-year-old musician treated 110 friends and her beloved pet bulldog, Asia, to a game at Manchester's All Star Lanes for a premature end-of-tour party on Monday (17.11.14), ahead of the conclusion of her 'artRAVE' run of gigs in Paris next week (24.11.14).

A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: ''Gaga made sure everyone was thanked with a real chance to let their hair down. ''She has a few days off before her date in Sheffield, and a few have to leave early. So she chose this week for her big send off.''

The 'G.U.Y.' singer hired out the whole venue for the party and reportedly downed red wine and whisky throughout the night, but opted against using the regulation bowling shoes and instead took aim in her stilettos. A source told Metro newspaper: ''Gaga was sipping red wine through a straw during the game which helped fuel her to a total of 69.''

Following the game, the talented musician opted to show off her vocal ability by heading over to the karaoke box and belting out renditions of Spice Girls single 'Spice Up Your Life' and Scissor Sisters' 'I Don't Feel Like Dancin'.

Since the boozy bash, the 'Do What U Want' diva has been out and about in the northern city once again, this time getting a tattoo of her nickname ''Mother Monster'' scrawled across her armpit. Following the early hours inking, she tweeted: ''feel more complete w/ my new tat, a declaration that I'm always with u, thanks for a killer summer. And for everything. the Mother Monster (sic).''
