Flamboyant pop star Lady Gaga is slated to return to Israel for a performance in 2014, although the date for the show has not yet been set, Channel 2 reported on Tuesday.

The eccentric performer, whose outlandish outfits often generate as much interest as her music, is expected to squeeze Israel in as part of a world tour promoting her ARTPOP album.

Gaga, who is currently touring in Japan, is to perform in Yarkon Park in Tel Aviv, a venue that regularly hosts performances by international stars. She last visited Israel in 2009 when she performed at the Israel Trade Fairs & Convention Center, also in Tel Aviv.

Channel 2 also reported that singer Justin Timberlake is scheduled to perform in Israel on May 14, 2014, either in Yarkon Park or the Ramat Gan Stadium.

Organizers’ effort to bring Beyonce to Israel sometime next year are currently on hold until March 2014.
