LADY GAGA'S NEW ALBUM


Lady GaGa is the latest sensation in the music world..And the electronic diva has just released her new album!!

Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta[8] (born 20 March 1986), best known by her stage name Lady Gaga, is an American singer-songwriter and musician. She was born in Yonkers, New York and grew up in Manhattan, where she attended private school at Convent of the Sacred Heart and later studied at New York University's Tisch School of the Arts. At age 20, she began working for Interscope Records as a songwriter, penning songs for pop acts such as the Pussycat Dolls. She has been influenced by glam rockers such as David Bowie and Queen as well as '80s pop singers such as Madonna and Michael Jackson.

After singer-songwriter and record producer Akon recognised that Gaga also had vocal talent, he signed her to a joint deal with his own label, Kon Live Distribution, and then started to work on her own new material for her debut album. In 2008, Gaga released The Fame, which she explained was "about how anyone can feel famous". To date, the album spawned the hit singles "Just Dance" (nominated for Best Dance Recording at the 51st Grammy Awards) and "Poker Face".

Gaga got her stage name when the music producer Rob Fusari compared her vocal style to that of Freddie Mercury and took the name 'Gaga' from the Queen song, "Radio Ga-Ga". It was Fusari that helped her to write some of her early hits, including "Disco Heaven", "Dirty Ice Cream" and "Beautiful, Dirty, Rich.

On 3 December 2008, the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences announced the nominees of the 51st Grammy Awards, which took place on 8 February 2009 and was held in the Staples Center. Gaga's "Just Dance" received a nomination for the Best Dance Recording, but lost to Daft Punk's "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger.

Gaga is a natural brunette, though her hair has not been in its natural color since 2008. According to Times Online, her hair is dyed because as a brunette, she kept being mistaken for fellow singer-songwriter Amy WinehouseGaga states that she is "very in to fashion" and that it is "everything". "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 performanceaga states that she is "very in to fashion" and that it is "everything". "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.
