She came in third in the diva Grammy race behind Beyonce and Taylor Swift, but if there had been a trophy for most courageous fashion statement, Lady Gaga would have taken it hands down.

Trading in her "Poker Face" for a spiky, silver headdress and matching, shimmering gown, Gaga was the talk of the red carpet at Sunday's 52nd annual Grammy Awards. She also took home two Grammys, although Beyonce won six and Taylor Swift captured four, including album of the year.

Before Sunday's Grammy show had even begun, just about everyone on the red carpet was keeping an eye out and speculating on what outlandish outfit Lady Gaga might show up in this time.

"I'm going to go with lettuce," said best new artist nominee Keri Hilson, who wore a body-hugging Dolce and Gabbana gown.

Rappers Redfoo and Sky Blu of LMFAO predicted Gaga would wear "a fish tank, with live fish and a snorkel."

Alice Cooper's guess?

"I think she'll be wearing a Lionel train set on her head tonight, with the full smoke and everything like that. I wouldn't be surprised, and I'll be disappointed if she isn't."

Ringo Starr predicted an all-blue "Avatar" look.

"Anyway, who knows," he added. "I want to be surprised."

It's a safe bet he was.

There was so much to Gaga's shiny, silvery, three-dimensional number that she needed an escort to get her in and out of her seat in the audience.

At one point, though, she briefly changed out of her gown, putting on a green, fairy-winged bodysuit with matching sparkle booties when she performed the show's opening number and dueted with Elton John.

Lady Gaga is such a beautiful young woman, I certainly do not think it would hurt her to try on something Posh Beckham would wear. Since we all have different mind sets, she must stick to her...guns
