Lady Gaga posted an emotional tribute to her friend and former assistant who passed away after a five-year battle with cancer.

“Watching one of my best friends in the world show unfathomable courage, strength, and positivity while battling cancer has really changed my life,” she began the lengthy post, which she shared alongside a black and white snap of Sonja with her husband Andrew Dubois.

“Thank you Sonja for inspiring me and all of us everyday with your joy. I love you so much it brings tears to my eyes just to think of all the years we’ve spent together backstage running the show, taking care of each other.

“You are one of a kind. I’m so proud of you. And you and Andre, your unbreakable beautiful love is what life is all about. You can see it in this photo. Wanted to share this with the world and show them what true beauty looks like. #grigiogirls #sonjadurham I love you girl. I love you so much,” the Applause hitmaker concluded her heartbreaking tribute.
