Lady Gaga Gets Tony Bennett Sketch Tattooed on Arm

Lady Gaga made her love for Tony Bennett permanent. Mama Monster showed her deep appreciation of the music legend by tattooing his drawing of a trumpet onto her arm.

The Applause singer, 28, shared the original sketch on Instagram with the caption, "My guy Tonys such an amazing artist." Gaga's buddy, jazz musician Brian Newman, got a matching tat and when the process was done, she posted a shot of the final product, writing, "Bennedetto. Tony's an artist. he sketched this trumpet and were getting tattoos."

 This isn't the first time Tony has drawn for the pop singer. In 2011, the 87-year-old crooner drew a charcoal nude of Gaga that was auctioned on eBay for a whopping $30,000. The proceeds from the sale benefited his charity, Exploring the Arts, as well as the blond beauty's Born This Way Foundation. That same year, they recorded a version of "The Lady Is a Tramp" for Tony's "Duets II" collection and in 2013, the duo sang together at the White House Ball.

On Monday, Tony and Gaga came together to make a surprise appearance at the Frank Sinatra School of the Arts in New York City, where they performed and hosted a master class in the school's Tony Bennett Concert Hall. Tony captioned his twitpic, "What a day with my great friend @ladygaga. The students went gaga for Gaga!!" Alongside the same photo, she wrote, "Our secrets out @itstonybennett Were in Love."
