Lady Gaga scolded a photographer for making Al Pacino take his sunglasses off: 'He's Al Pacino!'

• A photographer told Pacino to take off his sunglasses on the "House of Gucci" red carpet.

• Gaga, who was beside him, said: "Don't make him take his glasses off – he's Al Pacino!"

• "In case you didn't know," Pacino said as he put them back on.

Lady Gaga had to stand up for her "House of Gucci" co-star Al Pacino on Tuesday night at the New York premiere of the movie.

While posing for pictures with Pacino and her other co-star Jared Leto beside her, a photographer said to Pacino, "Take off your glasses, Al," as the 81-year-old legend was wearing sunglasses.

Gaga quickly said: "Don't make him take his glasses off – he's Al Pacino!"

Pacino jokingly responded: "In case you didn't know."

Leto urged Pacino to put them back on, and when he did Gaga said: "Yes, thank you."

Pacino plays Aldo Gucci in the movie, who ran the Gucci empire before bringing his nephew Maurizio Gucci (played by Adam Driver) and his wife Patrizia (Lady Gaga) into the business. Leto plays Aldo's son, Paolo.

"House of Gucci" opens in theaters on November 24.
