Lady Gaga - The queen of pop
With a string of No. l hits, an armful of awards and chart-topping albums, Lady Gaga is a worldwide
sensation. How did it all start, for the Italian American girl from Manhattan, and how did she achieve such
fame?
Lady Gaga was born in 1986. Her real name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta. She could play the
piano by ear from the age of four and later said her musical inspiration was the classical composer Johann
Sebastian Bach.
Gaga always loved performing and dreamed of fame from an early age. At 17, she became one of the
youngest students at the Tisch School of Performing Arts in New York. After that, she followed her dream the
hard way, moving out of her parents’ home to a cheap apartment, while trying to earn a living as a singer-
songwriter. It wasn’t easy. Gaga spent a few years performing in clubs without success. Then, her luck started
to change.
She began writing songs for successful artists like Britney Spears and The Pussycat Dolls, and music
executives quickly saw her talent for writing pop hits. Meanwhile, Gaga was developing her own image and
performance style, wearing strange costumes, wigs, and make-up.
Lady Gaga set up her own website, as well as MySpace, Twitter, YouTube and Facebook profiles to
promote her music. This was the turning point. She even made her songs available for free downloads. Lady
Gaga also used these social media sites to chat with fans about various things such as her latest fashion
statement, or the lyrics of a new song. In fact, Lady Gaga’s Twitter page now has 7.5 million followers. Lady
Gaga shows no sign of slowing down. She writes songs, she sings and she dances, surprising audiences with
her unusual clothes. Her talent and hard work have made her an icon of today’s pop culture.
