A revealing photo of Lady Gaga which currently graces the cover of Q magazine has been banned by a number of U.S. stores.

QTheMusic.com reports, that several leading U.S. retailers have vetoed the magazine, which features the controversial, pop singer posing topless on the cover.

The “Bad Romance” hitmaker walked out during the Q magazine shoot after her request to strike a provocative pose was given the thumbs down.

To the surprise of onlookers, the pop singing sensation turned on the photographer, saying that she hated the pictures, before bursting into tears and walking out.

The issue was eventually settled, and the photo in which she posed topless in a pair of spiked trousers was used – not the pose the pop sensation wanted.

In spite of efforts by Q to tone down the cover, a number of U.S. retailers, including the bookstore Borders, are refusing to stock the magazine unless it is put in a sealed cover.

For more information on the magazine, check out Q magazine’s official website.

Did you know? Lady Gaga is currently touring Britain with her highly successful Monster Ball Tour, but the show suffered a number of setbacks, including missing costumes and technical foul-ups when it opened.

    Oh, come on! If we gotta see Johnny Wier posing in a bubble in leggings and high heels, why ban this? I've seen magazine covers that are WAY worse than that! Allé GaGa!

    I think that's stupid that they banned those magazines in U.S stores! I live in Canada and I don't know if it's banned in Canadian stores too... but anyways, all these pics r beautiful. I know that GaGa hated these pics, but if she hates them, then don't post them in the next magazine. I know it wouldn't be her idea, it's the photographer! I feel so sorry for poor GaGa :( But anyways, they shouldn't banned those issues in the stores.
