EARLY LIFE
Born in Yonkers, New York, to Italian parents, Gaga attended the Sacred Heart Catholic school as a child, where she was a schoolmate of fashionistas Paris Hilton and Caroline Kennedy. She was an alumnus of the school. As a child, she used to hum along to cassette tapes of Michael Jackson and Cyndi Lauper, learned to play the piano by ear at the age of 4, wrote her first lyric at 13, took the microphone and sang in public at 14, and was accepted into the music department of New York University at the age of 17 (there are only 20 early admission programs worldwide). At the age of 17, he was accepted into the Music Department of New York University (there are only 20 early acceptance spots in the world). At only 20 years old, Gaga was recognized by Interscope Records and was signed to the label to write songs for singers/groups. Gaga's style is clearly influenced by classic glam rock artists such as Queen, David Bowie and 1980s pop artists such as Madonna and Michael Jackson. Her stage name, Lady Gaga, is a portmanteau of Queen's smash hit "Radio Gaga".
Lady Gaga
When Lady Gaga was a little girl, she would sing Michael Jackson and Cyndi Lauper into her tiny tape recorder or spin around in her father's arms to Rolling Stone and the Beatles. This hyperactive child also danced happily around the tables of fine restaurants on the Upper West Side, using a breadstick as a baton. And when a new nanny comes into the house, the innocent one happily greets her in a new birthday suit.
It's no wonder that this little girl from an Italian-American family in New York grew up to be so brave to show herself off as a multi-talented, attention-grabbing singer-songwriter. That's who she is, Lady Gaga.
"I've always been good at entertaining the public, I grew up as a happy-go-lucky girl and I still am," Lady Gaga says. She rose to prominence in Manhattan's Lower East Side nightclubs with her infectious party-dance hit "Beautiful Dirty Rich". What's more, she is known for her amazing 'shock art' performances. During the show, she removes her stage costume piece by piece until she reveals her hand-tailored hot pants and bikini bra, then lights up a can of aerosol hairspray and ends up scratching her head to the soundtrack of the movie A Clockwork Orange as neon globes of color slowly descend from the ceiling.
"I've always loved rock 'n' roll, pop culture and theater, and when I look at Queen and David Bowie, I really understand that all three can exist at the same time," says Lady Gaga. Lady Gaga, whose stage name was inspired by Queen's song "Radio Gaga," says she looks to TV character Peggy Bundy and designer Bonatella Versace as fashion icons. "I don't limit my fashion choices to people in the music industry, it's all about performance, as long as you have the right attitude and the right style, everything is right. So that's why I chose to be an entertainer, and that's what I'm trying to accomplish."
That may seem like a lofty goal, but look at the girl's background: Lady Gaga learned to play the piano by ear at age 4; she wrote her first lyric on the piano at age 13; and at age 14, she spent her nights singing at New York's famed Bitter End and her days at the Covent of Sacred Heart School (in Manhattan). School (a private school in Manhattan) where her classmates taunted her for her quirky, rebellious look; at 17, she was one of only 20 people in the world to be admitted early to New York University's Tisch School of the Arts; and on her twentieth birthday she was signed to a record label and asked to write songs for a number of big-name artists (such as Kitten, and the next in line of Universal singers to be released). Her debut album has not even been released yet.) Her debut album hadn't even been released yet, and Lady Gaga was already on the express train to the clouds.
"Going into show business, my goal was to bring new pop music to the world in a fun way," she says. She puts it this way. Her debut solo album, The Fame, not only includes all the lyrics, but she also played and recorded almost all the musical orchestrations herself. "And I wanted to play with the listener's emotions with a cool pop song, like a spoonful of something that looks like sugar, but is actually a bitter pill.
The Fame album feels like a cocktail of Gaga mixing two parts dance pop, one part electronica, one part rock and roll, with a dash of disco and mockumentary, and then slowly pouring it into a stylized martini glass to seduce the world into getting drunk with her. She explains, "This album talks about how everyone can feel like a celebrity. Pop culture is an art in itself, and resisting it doesn't make you cool, so I was determined to embrace it, and you can clearly feel that on The Fame. But that thrill of being out on top is something you can share with others, and I wanted to invite everyone to come along and party, and I hope people can be infected by that attitude to life."
The album's opener, "Just Dance," was also the debut single, and the song's fun, "LA Celebrity-esque" groove was a red-hot hit on the dance floor. For the equally notable "Boys Boys Boys," Lady Gaga was unapologetic about her intentions: "I want to write a female-only version of Motley Crue's 'Girls Girls Gilrs,' but it's going to have my own twist on it, and I want to write the kind of pop song that even rock stars would love. pop song."
"Beautiful Dirty Rich" sums up her self-discovery on the Lower East Side, which mostly involved drug addiction and partying, and Lady Gaga says, "That time, or that song, was when I was thinking about what I wanted to do with my life, and once I decided that I wanted to go out onstage and perform, I fell in love with that decision and never felt the same way again. Once I decided to go on stage and perform, I fell in love with that decision and I didn't feel like partying anymore," says Lady Gaga. The first time you hear 'Paparazzi' you might think it's a song about showing love to the camera, but in fact Lady Gaga thinks it's a joke: "On one level it's about attracting the paparazzi and being famous, but it's not completely serious, it's a reflection of how people think about it, but on another level it can also be a joke about the fact that it's about the fact that you can be famous, and that it's about the fact that you can be famous. Maybe it reflects people's views on the matter, but on the other hand, it can also be about the struggle of falling in love with a boy and whether or not it's possible to get both money and fame."
GaGa also shows her love of lyricism on the album, with tracks like the Queen-inspired "Brown Eyes" and the sweet breakup kiss-off "Nothing I Can Say (eh eh)". Brown Eyes' is the most emotionally vulnerable track on the album, while 'Eh Eh' is a simple pop song about breaking up with an old boyfriend and the next guy might be better," she explains.
As for touring the new album, fans will get to see the new hardcover version of the show again, following the word-of-mouth Lollapalooza show in August 2007 and the March 2008 show at Winter Music Conference. "This new show will be a super-glamorous version of the homemade shows I've been playing around town for the past few years. It's going to be a little more upscale, but my favorite elements will still be there, like the colorful neon balls, the hot pants, the sequin outfits and the embellishments. But it's going to be a much hotter, more holistic version, a pop-art synthesis."
It's been a long time since I've heard of a newcomer to the music industry having to pay to go to some nightclub to have a live performance to self-promote, which is a pretty old-fashioned and grassroots way to make a debut. But this newcomer is no longer just a good-looking girl from a high class family, or the winner of a TV singing show, or a character in a teenage drama. "I just did what I felt I had to do, I went to almost every club in New York, and wherever I went, I got a great response, I just mesmerized the whole crowd, and that's the only time I really felt like an entertainer. I knew what I had to do to survive in the scene, to get my foot in the door, and what I had to do to fail. And I've come to the conclusion that I'm not just a singer, I'm a performer. And most importantly, I have to work very hard."
Lady Gaga concluded with a wink, "Right now, what I'm trying to do is continue to transform the world little by little."

The Fame Album Description
The first wave of the hotly anticipated Just Dance", filled with high-voltage Electro-Pop and featuring backing vocals from Akon's newly signed 19 year old Colby O'Donis, quickly rose to #2 on the US Dance Chart, #1 in Canada for four weeks and #2 in Australia, and was selected as the ending song for the teen dance film "Make It Happen". The second hit "Beautiful, Dirty, Rich" is a mix of funky lines and 90's house grooves that will have dance clubbers going crazy; "Eh, Eh (Nothing Else I Can't Do)" is a light, swinging, and catchy track that will have dance clubbers going crazy. Eh, Eh (Nothing Else I Can Say)" is a soothing summer reggae beat that invites a humming mood; "Poker Face," the first to create a sensation in Canada, packs Synth-Pop energy into a glittering retro party; and the same single, "The Fame," uses electric guitar to create a rock 'n' roll sensation that moves on the edge of hip-hop/rhythm and blues, and is a brilliantly crafted song. The same single "The Fame," with its electric guitar and rock sensibilities, is a hip-hop/rhythm-and-blues edge that's just as good as Stephanie's, and "Again Again" and "Summerboy" are just a testament to Lady Gaga's ability to put it all together and play Pop Rock.
Lady Gaga is the new "Queen of Dance" of American pop music in 2008. Not only does she have a great voice, but she's also a cool songwriter with a great personality, and she's been dubbed the "secret weapon" of Kon Live, the label created by global hip-hop comet Akon. Lady Gaga is known as the "secret weapon" of Akon's own label, Kon Live.
Lady Gaga helped Britney Spears (Britney Spears) write two songs for her new album, which caused a bit of a stir, but also let Lady Gaga's fame skyrocketed, and the first single, "Just Dance," is to get Akon (Akon) to carry Colby O'Donis in person to help out, so for the new album! The new album, I think it is difficult not to red, and not to mention, Lady Gaga sexy charm of the voice is also very lethal.
Lady Gaga has also been favored by the producers of many serials, including "Paparazzi", which has become a popular American serial <GOSSIP GIRL (Gossip Girl)> in the interlude, and extremely popular.
Lady Gaga is from New York City, a colorful city that gives her a fashionable and beautiful atmosphere. 23-year-old Lady Gaga, like many rebellious young people, is full of boldness, avant-garde and alternative, and even a bad girl in the eyes of the common people with revealing clothes, but at the same time, Lady Gaga is also a piano player and songwriter.
Lady Gaga is the most famous singer in the world. Lady Gaga's musical acumen was evident from an early age: she learned to play the piano by ear at the age of four, wrote her first song at thirteen, and took the microphone in public the following year; at seventeen, she skipped a grade to enter New York University's music department, and at the age of twenty, she was recognized by Interscope Records, which signed her to the label. At just 20 years old, Lady Gaga was recognized by Interscope Records, who signed her to a label that writes songs for singers/groups.
Lady Gaga not only brings a wave of "high-firepower" music to her ears, but also brings a "fashion feast" to her vision, with those who accept it calling it cool and hot personality, and those who can't accept it being thundered to death! Even some people jokingly called her for the United States of America Sister Furong, Lady Gaga dress bold avant-garde alternative, favorite wear deep V slit one-piece assembly flesh-colored pantyhose out, her taste in clothing has been criticized, but also by many young women to pursue. In fact, Lady Gaga has a taste for avant-garde designers such as Maison Martin Margiela, Hussein Chalayan and Viktor & Rolf. Now, Lady Gaga is also planning to launch her own fashion label, and what's even more interesting is that the first line will probably be pants.
