Art Smith gets more love from Lady Gaga

Published November 7, 2011 5:00am ET



Lady Gaga has had a longstanding love affair with chef Art Smith’s fried chicken, so it’s no surprise that she’s invited him to join her upcoming Thanksgiving special, “A Very Gaga Thanksgiving.” Smith, owner of D.C.’s Art & Soul restaurant at the Liaison Capitol Hill, will help Gaga prepare some deep-fried turkey and waffles for the 90-minute special. The pop star will also be interviewed by Katie Couric and perform with Tony Bennett during the show, which will air Nov. 24 on ABC.
