Lady Gaga sued by accomplice in dog theft for withholding $500,000 reward money after returning dogs
Fox News
A woman charged as an accomplice in the theft of Lady Gaga's two dogs is suing the pop star for failing to pay her the reward money after she returned them.
Gaga's dogs were stolen during a robbery in February 2021, in which her assistant was shot in the chest. Two days later, McBride claimed she had found the dogs tied to a pole and requested Lady Gaga’s $500,000 reward offer. Los Angeles police discovered she was romantically involved with the father of one of the men involved in the robbery, and arrested them both as an accessory to attempted murder. She pleaded no contest to one count of receiving stolen property and was sentenced to two years of probation in December 2022, the LA Times reported. Yael Halon is a reporter for Fox News Digital.

Despite her involvement, McBride's attorney argued in Friday's filing that because Gaga offered a $500,000 reward to whoever returned her dogs on a "no questions asked" basis, she "defrauded" McBride "by making a promise without intent to perform."
