Lady Gaga Super Bowl Crib in Houston was a Gem
Lady Gaga's crash pad in Houston for Super Bowl week is big enough for true Patriots ... as in the entire team!
Gaga's staying in a $10,000 a night palace ... nearly 10,000 square feet, with a Renaissance-style stone spiral staircase for grand entrances, a state-of-the-art fitness center, a resort-inspired pool, and (beware of Bieber) Venetian plaster.

Best of all ... it's free, courtesy of Airbnb.
So, which is cooler ... Gaga's, or the $50 million estate Beyonce crashed at during the last Super Bowl in San Fran?

Gisele SPACED OUT Hours Before Kickoff
What do you do when your pre-Super Bowl anxiety hits out-of-this-world levels??
You take your fam to the Houston Space Center!
That's what Gisele did early Sunday morning -- taking her daughter Vivian for a quick trip to the home of the largest moon rock collection on the planet ... while her hubby Tom Brady preps for the Falcons.
The supermodel explored replicas of the Apollo Lunar Module, Apollo 17 Command Module and more. Looks like she had a great time.
As we know from previous Super Bowls, Gisele gets pretty intense when watching the games -- so, we're guessing the trip was an attempt to keep her mind distracted.
Then again, Tom's already been through the Super Bowl thing 6 times before ... so, maybe they're looking to buy a space shuttle??
