What with her meat dresses and egg chariots, Lady Gaga has all the makings of a kooky godmother. Gaga, who is exactly that to Elton John's son, is just one of the celebrity godparents rounded up in a Daily Beast slideshow:

• Elton John: In a tight-knit circle o' godparents, he is godfather to two of three of Victoria and David Beckham's boys, as well as to Elizabeth Hurley's son ... and Hurley is the Beckham boys' godmother.
• Johnny Depp: In addition to starring in many of Tim Burton's films, he also acts as godfather to the director's son with Helena Bonham-Carter.
