Lady Gaga feels like a "chipmunk" after having her wisdom teeth extracted yesterday (17.04.14).
The 28-year-old singer was feeling sorry for herself after developing a puffy face from having her teeth yanked out prior to her 'ArtRave: The Artpop Ball' tour in May.
The eccentric star posted a picture on her Twitter account last night of her in bed, clutching a monkey, with a sad expression plastered across her face.
She accompanied the snap with the caption: "Chipmunk Cheeks Wisdom Teeth out before tour. I can't eat. I'm gonna put some meatballs in a blender. (sic)".
Lady Gaga had informed her followers earlier on in the day that she had undergone the operation and was on medication to control the pain.
She tweeted: "Wisdom teeth out. P-p-Percocet p-p-Percocet (sic)".
Meanwhile, the blonde beauty is determined to look her best at all times and recently admitted to using facelift tape as part of her morning ritual to pull her skin back on her face and neck to give her a more youthful appearance.
She said previously: "When I have my wig cap on and I'm taping my face, it's a sort of meditation for me. Every day, it starts the same way. It's like a mantra.
"I wash my face, I pin my hair back and put on a wig cap and I ask, 'How am I going to form my eyes today with this tape? How will I pull back my neck with tape?'"

The 'Wrecking Ball' hitmaker - who was admitted for medical treatment on Tuesday (15.04.14) after suffering a severe allergic reaction to antibiotics - has had to cancel gigs on her 'Bangerz' tour and is tired of speculation surrounding her health.

Kris Jenner is doing "great" after being rushed to hospital on Wednesday (16.04.14).
The 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians' star insists she's feeling better and is looking forward to Easter after being hospitalised for "internal pains" earlier this week.
Speaking to E! News, she said: "I'm feeling well and looking forward to a relaxing Easter holiday."
The 58-year-old talent manager has already been busy getting the Easter treats ready for her grandchildren Mason, four, Penelope, 21 months, and North, 10 months.
Taking to Twitter yesterday (17.04.14), she shared a snap of her bunny-inspired table decorations and some tasty snacks for the little ones.
She accompanied the photo with: "Easter sweets and goodies for my precious Bunnies!! #EasterLove (sic)".
Kris was taken to a medical centre in Thousand Oaks, California, on Wednesday morning by her estranged husband Bruce Jenner following her doctor's decision to run a scan after experiencing severe discomfort.
Olympic gold medallist Bruce, 64, was spotted taking Kris, whom he announced he was separating from in October after 22 years of marriage, to the emergency room and it is believed he drove from his bachelor pad in Malibu to be by her side in Los Angeles.

Michelle Heaton won't know for months whether her baby son will suffer long-term health problems after recently contracting meningitis.
The Liberty X singer was left frantic with worry last week when six-week-old Aaron, who is known as AJ, was diagnosed with the potentially-deadly disease, and tests have failed to establish whether he has a viral or bacterial strain.
She said: "Tests to discover whether the meningitis is bacterial or viral were inconclusive, so he had to go back in to have them re-done. They're 99.9 per cent sure it's viral but they can't chance it so they're having to treat it as bacterial - the more serious of the two.
"We won't know the effects it might have on AJ until he's older - like possible behavioural problems, hearing and sight abnormalities - but the risks are low because we caught it straight away. In three months he'll have his hearing and sight tested again."
Michelle and her husband Hugh Hanley were particularly shocked by the tot's diagnosis as they had initially gone to hospital to get him checked out for something else.
She explained in an interview with Britain's OK! magazine: "Last week he had been bringing up his milk and it slowly got worse. After the doctors saw him, they said they were worried about his high temperature and the colour of his skin.
"Hugh and I didn't understand - we hadn't seen any of those signs. It must have come on while we were there so we were lucky we were already at the hospital for something unrelated."

Paul Walker's mother has dropped her bid to gain custody of his daughter.
Cheryl Walker had sought to be named as the sole guardian over the late actor's estate and his 15-year-old daughter Meadow, but she has now requested a dismissal of her petition as she wants to settle it outside of the court, according to PEOPLE.com
It was believed last month that Cheryl would abandon her custody bid if Meadow's mother Rebecca Soteros sought treatment in rehab for her "serious drinking problem".
Rebecca promised last month to check into rehab immediately and also agreed to regular drug testing after completing her stint as being with Meadow is the "most important thing" to her.
Meadow began living with her famous father full-time in California three years before his death, after moving there from Hawaii, where her mother - who was arrested in 2003 and 2013 for drink driving - raised her.
The youngster is set to inherit Paul's entire fortune of a reported $25 million after he named her as the sole beneficiary in his will.
The star also appointed his father Paul Walker Sr. as the executor, and stated that Cheryl should become Meadow's legal guardian.
It was previously claimed Rebecca was happy for Meadow to live with Cheryl, who is a nurse, after the death of Paul in November because she wanted to stay in California.
The late actor perished alongside his friend Roger Rodas on November 30, when the car they were travelling in lost control and crashed in Santa Clarita, California.

Courtney Love's gay friends taught her how to be a rock star.
The Hole singer credits her homosexual pals with helping her learn how to dress well and have a commanding presence when she enters a room.
She told Gay Times magazine: "When I was a kid I was definitely what you would call a fag hag because that's how I learned to dress and be extrovert and walk into a room.
"But at the same time, [musician] Julian Cope taught me a lot about that when I lived in Liverpool and he wasn't gay.
"I would say my freshman year of learning how to be a rock star was just hanging around drag queens, and my sophomore year was going to Liverpool and spending about two years with that crew of people and learning."
Courtney - who was married to late Nirvana rocker Kurt Cobain and has battled drug addiction in the past - believes she is regarded as a "gay icon" because she is a survivor, and also knows how to "clean up nice".
Asked what makes her a gay icon, she said: "I think it's surviving. It has to be. Surviving, and also the ability to do drag, to clean up nice. I might look like s**t this morning, but you know, I clean up nice.
"And also... I've done things other people can't do. I've crossed over, I've been a movie star, I've lived through all sorts of crazy things I shouldn't have lived through.
"I've had huge ups, huge downs, and I've landed on my feet. I think that's what qualifies you."

Nicki Minaj wants to get married in a hot tub.
The 'Starships' hitmaker is engaged to boyfriend and assistant Safaree Samuels and is pulling out all the stops to make sure she has an extravagant ceremony including "fire breathers" and "naked performers" on the big day.
A source said to heat magazine: "She wants to arrive by elephant, and to get soaking wet by jumping into either a pool or a hot tub for the ceremony.
"She's talking fire breathers, naked performers and actually exchanging vows in the hot tub. She wants it to be the most beautiful and outlandish do of all time."
Nicki is considering hosting the ceremony in her native Caribbean in a bid to remember her roots.
A source added: "Nicki really wants to get married in the Caribbean, as she was born in Trinidad and wants to celebrate that part of her heritage. She's talking about renting a private island and hosting a three-day party - she wants the whole thing to be unforgettable."
Although the wedding day itself isn't the most conventional, the 31-year-old singer wants to be every bit the blushing bride in the traditional sense, with a beautiful gown and classic make-up.
The source explained: "She wants to look like a traditional bride, with classic make-up and a couture gown. What she does in the gown will be the wild part."

Katie Holmes could be set to replace Nigella Lawson on 'The Taste'.
The former 'Dawson's Creek' actress is reportedly being eyed by producers on the culinary contest ever since the chef's place on the third series of the show was thrown into jeopardy when she was refused permission to board a flight to Los Angeles after confessing in court last year that she has taken drugs.
A source said: "Producers of 'The Taste' are looking to replace Nigella. They're keen to hear more about how Katie's planning to reinvent herself as a Martha Stewart-style culinary guru.
"It's very early days and it all depends on what happens with Nigella, but Katie is very excited and would jump at the job if it came available."
Katie is said to be keen to launch a new career and has been in talks to make a TV show about her love of food and cooking, and sees working on 'The Taste' as a step in the right direction for her new image.
The source added to Britain's Grazia magazine: "A meeting is planned for when she is next in LA. Katie wants a new career, loves food and is in talks about writing a cookbook. And obviously she's great on camera."
