I just love her. I don't know why but she kinda mix fashion with music. and I love her bangs too.. Check on her new video : Love Game and Paparazzi. Open the website on http://www.lady gaga.com

Her name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta (born March 28, 1986). Lady Gaga is her stage name. She worked as a songwriter penning music for established artists, such as Akon. During the same time, she began to play her music in clubs throughout New York City. After Akon recognized that Gaga also had vocal talent, he signed her to a joint deal with his own label, Kon Live Distribution. Gaga then started to work on new material for her debut album. She began to make her own album called " The Fame" which she explained "about how anyone can feel famous" To date, the album has spawned the international number one singles "Just Dance" (nominated for Best Dance Recording at the 51st Grammy Awards) and Poker Face. She won Much Music Video Awards for Best International Artist Video with her song : Poker Face.

She is the eldest child on her family. By the time she was eleven, Gaga was set to join Juilliard School in Manhattan,but instead attended the private Catholic school Convent of the Sacred Heart. Having learned piano by ear at the age of four, Gaga went on to write her first piano ballad at 13 and began performing at open mic nights by the age of 14.

By 2008, Gaga had relocated to Los Angeles, working closely with her record label to finalize her debut album "The Fame "The Fame is about how anyone can feel famous," she explains. "Pop culture is art. It doesn’t make you cool to hate pop culture, so I embraced it and you hear it all over The Fame. But, it’s a sharable fame. I want to invite you all to the party. I want people to feel a part of this lifestyle."The Fame peaked at number one in Austria, the UK, Canada, and Ireland, and number four in Australia. Afterward, Haus of Gaga turned its focus further upon the American market with Gaga going on her first ever concert tour with fellow Interscope pop group, the reformed New Kids on The Block. Gaga started her stint with New Kids on the Block in Los Angeles on October 8, 2008, and continued through the end of November. She appeared as a featured guest on the song "Big Girl Now" from their new album, The Block. In late October 2008, Gaga released The Fame in the US, where it debuted at number seventeen on the Billboard 200, with first week sales of 24,000 units, and has thus far peaked at number four.Worldwide sales stand at 2.3 million copies.Gaga has been primarily influenced by glam rockers like David Bowie and Queen, singers Michael Jackson and Madonna, artist Andy Warhol, She states that she is "very into fashion" and that it is "everything" for her. She said, "When I'm writing music, I'm thinking about the clothes I want to wear on stage. It's all about everything altogether—performance art, pop performance art, fashion. For me, it's everything coming together and being a real story that will bring back the super-fan. I want to bring that back. I want the imagery to be so strong that fans will want to eat and taste and lick every part of us."
