Christian Louboutin Designs Sparkly Torture Device for Charity

Lady Gaga, you may have just met your match. We don't even know if the insane footwear-loving pop icon herself could totter around in these 8-inch ballet shoes.

The mastermind behind the Swarovski-encrusted satin heels was none other than red-soled shoe genius, Christian Louboutin. The designer graciously created the gravity-defying wonder to be auctioned off at the English National Ballet's Summer Party in London.

While we love the idea of fashion for a charitable cause, when we look at these, all we can picture is sprained ankles and painful blisters. Can't a girl get a platform?
