Irish stage actor David Monahan, who was given the microphone by stunned presenter Hayden Panettiere, recalled to the Daily Mail how the situation occurred.
Explaining himself, Monahan said: "Two friends of mine work for the security company, they got me in but they didn't know I was going to storm the stage.
"I undressed in a backstage store room and considering Lady GaGa is walking about with a flying saucer on her head, not many people notice a guy with a black blanket wrapped around him."
