Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta (born March 28, 1986), better known by her stage name Lady Gaga, is an American recording artist. She began playing in clubs in the New York City area while also working at Interscope Records as a songwriter for several established acts, including Akon who, after hearing Gaga sing, convinced Interscope Records chairman Jimmy Iovine to sign her to a joint deal with the label and Akon's Kon Live Distribution label.
She began working with a collective called the Haus of Gaga in 2008, and released her debut album The Fame in August of the same year. The album peaked at number one in countries such as the United Kingdom and Canada, and topped the Billboard Top Electronic Albums chart in the United States. 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."
One of the breakthrough & most popular acts of 2009, with extremely catchy songs & an eccentic style. As a birthday present this year, my sister got me a ticket to see her perform in quite a small venue here in Ireland at the start of July. She's genuinely a fantastic performer, puts on a very entertaining show (even if it is a bit inappropriate for younger kids), and really does have a great voice. This video goes to show how dedicated & professional she is, yet still staying pleasant about the whole situation;

I don't really like her, but yes I'd admit she does have a great voice. And it's cool of her to still carry on with the performance, most others'd probably throw a fit.

I love her, but I can't deny the fact she's a total whore. She's definitely one of my guilty pleasures. The thing I like about her is that she actually writes here own songs and can actually sing well live.
