The Boys star Laurie Holden has revealed her character Crimson Countess' epic boots were made by Lady Gaga and Elton John's shoe designer.

Sharing what it was like to see the incredible footwear, she added: ‘I mean it was epic, just to go in and see the shoes for pickup for all of these icons. ‘I would go in once or two twice a week to model it and they built it. ‘When I would go in for my fittings and it was like “Oh these are Elton’s boots, these are Lady Gaga’s boots.” I was like “Oh and these are my boots!” It was insane, it was amazing.’ She was introduced to fans as a member of Payback and the former lover of Soldier Boy.
