Lady Gaga performed John Lennon's "Imagine" at the European Games opening ceremony in Azerbaijan on Friday, June 12. Watch her stripped-down but grand performance below!

Her recent duets album with Tony Bennett -- "Cheek to Cheek" -- debuted last fall at #1 on the Billboard 200 Album chart and also hit #1 on the Jazz Album and Traditional Jazz Album charts.

With the release of "Cheek To Cheek," Bennett broke his own record, set in 2011 when "Duets II" debuted at #1 at the age of 85. Now at 88, Bennett remains the oldest artist in music industry history to have an album at the #1 spot on the Billboard charts.

"Cheek To Cheek" marks Lady Gaga's third consecutive #1 album release in just over three years, making her the only female artist this decade to achieve this feat; this is the second time in Bennett's career that he has had an album debut at #1 in both Billboard's Pop and Jazz Album charts.
