It may have been -5°C in New York last night, but that didn’t stopped Lady Gaga from stepping out in a barely there fishnet bodysuit.

The Poker Face singer was going from Jimmy Fallon’s new show to her car but she didn’t show any signs that she was feeling the icy cold – there wasn’t a red nose or blue toe in sight.

While we may be freezing just looking at her, the 27-year-old even managed to stop for an autograph for a fan. The singer knows which side her bread is buttered on.

Fortunately, her floor-length platinum blonde wig may have gone some way to keep the eccentric pop star warm.

The day before, the Bad Romance hitmaker, who is well known for her outrageous outfits, tweeted: “Being different is a talent. You illuminate what makes you special in the sea of sameness around you. #ARTPOPmessages.”

She couldn’t have been able to see very well with those dark sunglasses either.

As the weather forces us indoors, colds, infections and flus spread more rapidly. Since it seems like there is never going to be a let up in this horrendous weather, it’s important that you do all you can to prevent yourself from getting sick.

Increase your intake of vitamin-rich foods
Fruit and vegetables are the best way to ensure a healthy immune system.

Get lots of sleep
The more tired you are, the higher your risk of catching an infection.

Wash your hands
Keep a hand sanitiser on your desk or in your bag and use it as often as you can.

Enjoy plenty of vitamin C rich foods
Vitamin C can help reduce the symptoms of colds and flu. Eat plenty of Brussels sprouts, broccoli, sweet potatoes and fruits.

Have a cup of tea
Tea contains a group of antioxidants called catechins which help the levels of inflammation in the body.

Stay hydrated
Fluids help remove toxins from the body so try to consume at least three litres a day.

Now, go do your good deed of the day and spread these tips around…
