Los Angeles, US (BBN) – Celebrity gazing has taken epic proportions with people across the world spending hours every day looking at images of their favourite movie/TV stars.

So clearly, a lot of people and planning go into making our stars look fab every time step out into the public space.
But hang on, there are a lot of crazy beauty routines too that make every frame picture perfect.
Call them quirks, if you will, but these beauty rituals are not what ordinary people would ever think of indulging in on a daily basis.
Here is an article full of the craziest beauty routines followed by some of our favourite celebrities around the world!
1. LADY GAGA: A TAPE FOR REMOVING MAKE-UP
Believe it or not, the American pop singer and songwriter uses tape to remove her eye makeup.
Since glitter is specially very difficult to remove, using a tape does sound like a good option.
Fabric tape is the most efficient and useful in this case.
Here’s a word of caution – Do not try this trick if your skin is sensitive or prone to redness.
Stick to your makeup remover and remember the skin around your eyes is extremely soft and delicate.
Any routine must be thought through, unless you are Lady Gaga herself!
