Lady Gaga has joined Instagram.

The pop megastar delighted thousands of her "Little Monsters" earlier today with a tweet shared from her shiny new Instagram account.

Just posted a photo instagr.am/p/Mr_FiZpFDe/— Lady Gaga (@ladygaga) July 5, 2012

Gaga has more than 26 million Twitter followers and though her Instagram activity is limited to only five self-portraits, the superstar already has nearly 120,000 followers on the service.

It looks like Gaga actually joined the service more than two weeks ago -- but chose until July 5 to actually start sharing photos with her wider fan base.

Gaga is one of the most socially savvy artists on the planet and she's used her celebrity and massive fan following to help raise money for charities, push album sales and even create her own social network.

That's why we're a little surprised it took Gaga so long to actually join the billion-dollar photo sharing service. Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez, Jason Mraz, Rihanna and dozens of other celebrities already have large followings on the network.

With any luck, Gaga will take to the photo service and use it as an outlet to share more of herself and her tour with her fans.
