On the edge of glory: Lady Gaga offers student artist a job on her team after being wowed by her Tumblr sketches

It's not everyday that superstar Lady Gaga sends a message to her 29 million Twitter followers to compliment a girl she has met just once.

But in this amazing role reversal, the Queen of pop became an overnight fan of 20-year-old artist Helen Green after she was stunned by her portraits of the star.

And after a chance encounter, a new friendship and artistic collaboration was born.

The singer was so impressed with Helen's work that she scouted her out using Twitter

The pair united at the singer's Born This Way Ball in Twickenham on Sunday and as a guest of Skype, Helen's dreams came true after Gaga immediately fell in love with her sketches and asked her to be the first member of her Haus of Gaga creative team.

'Haus of Gaga' is Lady Gaga's own creative production team. She personally handles the team, and they are in charge of creating a lot of her everyday clothes, stage clothes and hair style.

26-year-old Lady Gaga immediately took to twitter to share the great news.

'Welcome to the Haus of Gaga my angel of an artist,' she tweeted.

Lady Gaga took to Twitter straight away to welcome the artist and even used one of her portraits as her wallpaper

'The first Little Monster to become part of Haus collective. See u soon!'

She was so impressed by Helen's work that she immediately used one of her portraits as the background of her Twitter page.

Honoured Helen took to her Twitter page and said: 'I didn't think my work would eventually create impact like this.

'I am seriously honoured. Lady Gaga, thank you so much.'

Helen has already forged a firm fan base with nearly 6,000 likes on her Facebook page and over 9,000 Twitter followers.

I think she is a very beautiful girl. Her costumes and makeup at times take away from her natural Italian beauty at times? But she is young and living out her dreams. So more power to her. Not a huge fan of hers in terms of her music but don't see why so many people are haters. Don't like it? Don't read the article.

Eughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh why do people like Gaga? Nearly every comment on here is worshipping Lady Gaga, when really she is just a wannabe.

I'm sorry, but I've rarely seen anyone as ugly as her. Something particularly out of kilter with her face, and this is after her plastic surgery, I find it painful to look at her, and yet she seems to go to even more effort to look ugly. V odd. Red arrow if you like (I'm sure you defenders of all things gaga feel the need), but its all true. Wonder why she feels to make such a state of herself. Born this way? Hardly, this is a choice she makes.

She must have been inspired after viewing old Carol Burnett shows featuring the "curtain rod" lady.

There's always at least one negative comment, no matter how positive the article is. Never surprises me. Anyway, congratulations Helen!. She has an amazing talent and it's great Gaga has recognized her!
