The sad death of EastEnders actress June Brown has caused an outpouring of love for the seasoned Dot Cotton star. And it's a meeting between the Albert Square veteran and global popstar Lady Gaga which is just one of the moments that highlight the 95-year-old's status as an icon.
Appearing on The Graham Norton Show back in 2013, June sashayed on with a glass of wine in one hand and a cigarette in the other, and bowled over the Bad Romance singer in an instant. Gaga was impressed by her style, fur coat and beehive with pearls, and told the soap star: "I am a really big fan of yours. You are so fabulously dressed. I am honoured to be sitting next to you,"
Lady Gaga went on to pick up her fellow guest's glass of wine, commenting: "I want to drink from your cup to see what those genes are." In 2019, June revealed how kind Lady Gaga was to her behind-the-scenes, telling the Daily Star: "She was so funny, intelligent and down to earth, but when she went in front of the press, you could see her put the Gaga persona on."
