She shook up the VMAs (Kanya overshadowed a tad, but still), she conquered the radio waves all summer long, she played through clubs around the world and car stereos. Lady GaGa has gone from electronica, eccentric peformer to full blown popstar. Is she echoing the moves of Madonna like so many are saying? Is she simply a GENIUS business woman....and a genius? Who is Lady GaGa.......
Humble Roots.....
.jpg)
ah yes, GaGa as Stefani Germanotta- the Italian girl who grew up in New York City with her Italian-American family. She attended Catholic school, later went to NYU and just like ANY pop star went through ome let downs, when her first record label Def Jam dropped her at the age of 19, left to fend at open mics around the city, in search of another deal.
STEFANI, OR GAGA?
“I don’t appreciate when people call me Stefani, because if they don’t know me, I feel like it’s their way of acting like they do … they’re completely ignoring my creative existence… (Lady Gaga) is who I am. Me and my hair bow, we go to bed together. She sleeps where I sleep”

WHY DON'T YOU WEAR PANTS GAGA? WHY?
“I just don’t feel that it’s all that sexy. It’s weird. And uncomfortable. I look at photos of myself, and I look like such a tranny! It’s amazing! I look like Grace Jones, androgynous, robo, future fashion queen. It’s not what is sexy. It’s graphic, and it’s art. But that’s what’s funny: Well, yeah, I take my pants off, but does it matter if your pants are off if you’ve got eight-inch shoulder pads on, and a hood, and black lipstick and glasses with rocks on them? I don’t know. That’s sexy to me. But I don’t really think anybody’s d— is hard, looking at that. I think they’re just confused, and maybe a little scared. It’s more Manson to me than it is sexy.”
Remember this.....

She has a "favorite philosopher"

Lady GaGa’s SIXTH tattoo quotes, In the deepest hour of the night, confess to yourself that you would die if you were forbidden to write. And look deep into your heart where it spreads its roots, the answer, and ask yourself, must I write?" from philosopher Rainer Maria Rilke. She also has a peace symbol on her wrist inspired by John Lennon , her “HERO”

FlyLife, a Manhattan-based LGBT marketing company with whom her label Interscope works, in the liner notes of her debut studio album, The Fame, saying, “I love you so much. You were the first heartbeat in this project, and your support and brilliance means the world to me. I will always fight for the gay community hand in hand with this incredible team.”

She makes people say, "WTF???"

She hit the pages of MAXIM

….this picture would turn on even the most reluctant Lady GaGa fans.
What GaGa's Saying.....
On Confidence:
“Because that’s your fame. That’s where your fame lives… my luminosity. My constant flashing light. It’s in my ability to know what I make is great. I know it is, I know it’s great, and it’s that sureness. That sureness is infectious.”
On the Jonas Brothers....
“I love the Jonas Brothers, they’re very talented. I met them once. I’d like to have a foursome with them”
Regular day out? Yep.

GaGa knows there’s an “image” and “illusion” that she has to create…..you can’t just run to Starbucks in your tattered t-shirt and Juicy sweats- we’ve all seen what that’s done to popstars images in the past…..Will you catch GaGa sweats? No.
DOES SHE ALWAYS DRESS LIKE THAT????
“That’s a very dangerous precedent, and it’s not fair to my fans. They don’t want to see me that way, just like I don’t want to see [David] Bowie in a tracksuit. He never let anyone see him that way.”
Gianni Versace

GaGa has called Donatella Versace her “MUSE” LA Times reporter said, “[Gaga’s] aversion to wearing a top and bottom at the same time […] swigging champagne and being fanned by oily men in Speedos [is] very Donatella-esque.”

Leek raunchy photos

This is one is the cleanest of them. Though, none of them are pornographic- GaGa knows if she goes out on the town and imitate getting “intimate” (as other photos show) with another woman, she’ll have the blogs chatting. She’s also a self professed bisexual, this gives her fans the glimmer of “proof” they’re searching for…

She knows who gets the press.....

Ah want to shake some things up? Go out with Paris Hilton one night and you’ll get people talking.
It doesn't matter how business minded you are, you still need TALENT

AND she has it. Multi-instrumentalist and ridiculous vocalist, dancer, songwriter- yeah she knows what she’s doing.
What GaGa's Saying.....
On Inspiration:
“I am inspired by so many things. My favorite book, ‘Letters to a Young Poet.’ I was inspired by Helmut Newton for the ‘Paparazzi’ video. I’m inspired by fashion. I’m inspired by the moonlight. I’m inspired by sex and pornography and slasher films.”
All press is good press.....

and being BFFs with most hated celebrity blogger Perez Hilton, certainly works in her favor.

Blonde....or brunette???

ON SEX.....
“I love sex,” she says, tipping her sunglasses down a bit and leering. “You know, sense memory is a powerful thing. I can give myself an orgasm just by thinking about it.”
