Albums
She debuted with a studio album released in August, 2008 with popular title tracks like "Poker Face" and "Just Dance", songs which became international hits as well as hitting the top 100 charts in the USA. This album racked up six Grammy nominations, winning two of those awards in early 2009. By the last part of 2009 she released her second album The Fame Monster which was an appropriate title for an artist who catapulted to stardom so quickly.
Inspiration
Lady GaGa has been inspired by some pretty noticeable rockers including David Bowie, Queen's Freddie Mercury, and pop stars Michael Jackson and Madonna, just to name a few. I'd be surprised if Marilyn Manson wasn't somewhere in the mix considering Lady GaGa's taste for eccentric flamboyant fashion.
Early Days
Unlike many pop stars Lady GaGa could play the piano by ear at the age of four and write most of her own music as a superstar. Studying music at the age of 17 after being accepted to New York University's Tisch School of the Arts, she focused on music, art, social studies and American politics. She's been quoted as saying "Once you learn how to think about art, you can teach yourself." Some time during her sophomore year she withdrew from the university to focus entirely on her musical career. She rented a cheap apartment and ate less than nutritious foods, living frugally while she pounded the pavement with hard work, talent and ambition.
Fashion
What could possibly inspire this woman's fashion? She's a very fashionable woman, on and off stage. In fact, she's started her own Haus of Fashion which is basically a production team that she personally overseas. They help to create her hairdos, clothing and shoes. Being well dressed is a trait picked up from her mother. Fashion plus music equals performance art in the eyes of Lady GaGa.Source URL: http://thegreatamericablog.blogspot.com/2011/04/lady-gaga.html
