Two young artists who are turning the pop culture world upside down, Lady Gaga and Terrence Koh, joined forces last month in Toyko for GAGAKOH!, a legendary performance at club Tabloid. Only 900 lucky guests got to witness the debauchery. Koh created a one-of-a-kind piano for the event, in his signature white, as well as a five-foot-tall papier-mâché bunny head, a tribute to his spirit animal.

This month, they're auctioning off the piano and bunny head, which is signed by Gaga herself, through CharityBuzz to benefit the Art of Elysium, an amazing organization that encourages leading artists to dedicate their time and talents to kids undergoing serious medical treatments, empowering them through creative outlets. Past supporters of Elysium include Kanye West, Graham Nash, Eva Mendes, Joaquin Phoenix, Elijah Wood, David Lynch, Hugh Jackman, Ben Affleck, and many more.

Koh and Gaga first collaborated for the 2010 Grammys, designing the two-headed piano that Gaga played with Elton John. He has since designed the piano Gaga played for the February AmfAR Gala and most recently the GAGAKOH! instrument. As Gaga and Koh continue to use these 88 pearl designs for her over-the-top performances, here's your chance at obtaining a piece of art and pop culture history, while benefitting a more than worthy organization. Bidding ends Thursday, May 13 at 1 PM EST.

Sounds like a good cause, but with all them nearly naked people on stage and the reputation of Gaga and Koh, I WOULD be a bit concerned about body fluids. Ick!

Aol remonds me of a checkout counter in the supermarket. All trash and no substance. If I had a piano I didn't want I would donate it to a nursing home.

if you just listen and do not look at Gaga's music you find it to be quite good

I use too look at Lady GaGa and just see another freak trying to get 15 minutes of fame. But, as time went on, I realized that her music is very good. There's a lot of talent there. And she is kinda sexy as well. The girl is no idiot either! Notice many of the major players in the music bizz hooking up with her. And one last note. Can't you morons ever stay away from the racial comments? (both black and white) Grow the fk up! You never know if you might need help from someone, and I bet you won't be looking at their color than.

Chaz... Corrections for you "I use too" should be " I used to". Another rule of basic writing that you've gotten wrong here is, "beginning sentences with And". In addition, you also use "than" at the end of your comment instead of the correct word which would be "then". So... You might just want to do a "grammar and spell check", then do some reading up on "sentence structuring" so when you next call out others as "morons", you appear at least a step above them.
