Monster Pit KeyLady Gaga is giving away a "Monster Pit key" to one fan on every night of the Born This Way Ball world tour.

The "Judas" hitmaker kicked off her tour in Seoul, South Korea, last night and revealed to fans - whom she calls Little Monsters - the first in line will get to open the Monster Pit - an enclosed area around the stage for hardcore fans.

Tweeting a picture of a skull shaped necklace, she added, "This is a necklace I'll give to the first monster in line every night at the Ball. It's a symbol of the 'key' that opens the pit every night. The real monster pit key will be signed by this fan and returned to me. There'll be 110 necklaces & signatures Mar. 2013 (sic)."

The monster pit is a general admission area of the concert, which will be populated by the most hardcore fans who are first in line to see each show. The tour takes will include 100 shows in more than 25 countries and Gaga admitted her nerves for the opening night: "Nervous for tonight. Hope I make little monsters happy and proud. This is a very special moment for Haus of Gaga. We thank you so much. Enjoy our music, fashion installations & pop performance art tonight."

Enter to win 1 of 20 $25 iTunes gift cards in our Vonage Mobile giveaway!

Vonage Mobile review

Vonage Mobile has launched, and we're giving away 20 iTunes gift cards to our readers to celebrate! In case you're unaware, Vonage Mobile allows you to make free phone calls to other users of the app (which is currently available for iOS and Android,) anywhere in the world. In addition, you can also send free text messages as well to other users of the app, cross platform, anywhere in the world. Even better, you can call any phone number, and if that other person doesn't have Vonage Mobile, then the rate is much lower than what your mobile carrier would charge, and is even 30% less than what Skype would charge you as well.

The app works over both Wi-Fi and cell service (3G and 4G) and it uses your existing contacts and address book, rather than requiring you to set up a new username, get a new phone number, etc. Even cooler, you don't need a Vonage account to pay for your calls - instead, you just add your minutes right from the App Store or Android Market!

So, how do you enter to win one of the $25 iTunes credits? We've got a few different ways for you to enter. You only need to enter once, but for each method of entry, you gain an additional entry in the contest. Here's how you enter:

That's it! Again, there is no requirement for you to perform all three methods of entry, but you do get a point for each entry that you do. At the end of the week, we'll choose twenty winners at random who followed the rules!
