Norm of orthogonal matrices

Can someone help me with this problem. I have no idea how to solve it!!

If A is a p×q matrix, U is a p×p orthogonal matrix, and Z is a q×q orthogonal matrix, prove that $||A||_2=||UAZ||_2$

$$\|UAZ\|_2^2=\rho(Z^*A^*U^*UAZ)=\rho(Z^*A^*AZ)=\rho(AZZ^*A^*)=\rho(AA^*)=\rho(A^*A)=\|A\|_2^2$$
