From Wikipedia

GaGa was born on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, in New York City, to Italian parents. As a child, she 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. At the age of seventeen, GaGa was one of twenty people in the world to have gained early admission to the New York University's Tisch School of the Arts, where she studied music.

GaGa started hanging out downtown, performing in the Lower East Side club scene with bands Mackin Pulsifer and SGBand. Finding herself surrounded by singers who all wrote the same style of music, she decided to do something fresh and provocative in the rock 'n roll underground: pop music. Her entrepreneur father was shocked when GaGa ran off to the Lower East Side to dabble in drugs and appear in burlesque shows at dive bars with drag queens and go-go dancers. "He couldn't look at me for a few months," she admits of her early experimentation. "I was in leather thongs, so it was hard for him — he just didn't understand."

In 2006, she started working with music producer Rob Fusari, with whom she wrote several of her early downtown hits like "Beautiful, Dirty, Rich", "Dirty Ice Cream" and "Disco Heaven". It was when she performed the song "Again, Again" for Fusari that she created the stage name, Lady GaGa, which is a reference to the song "Radio Ga-Ga" by Queen. He started calling her "GaGa" as a nickname around the studio after noticing she evoked the high theatrical stylings of Queen lead vocalist Freddie Mercury while performing.

I mean, I can't go anywhere without hearing "Just Dance" on the radio. I wouldn't call her upcoming anymore.

Just Dance is almost a year old... it annoyed me when I first heard it and it still annoys me now that it's mainstream.

Yeah I wouldn't call her "upcoming." I think her songs sound too similar. "Just Dance" & "Poker Face" have the same beats.

It's in reference to the song "Radio Gaga" by Queen.

I really dont think that Christina copied Lady Gaga. Pop is such a generic sound... anyone can do it. And I think people cant criticize Christina's voice.. so they find other things about her to criticize.

But, I love Lady Gaga's CD. Paparrazi, Brown Eyes, and Beautiful,Dirty,Rich are really good songs.

Not music-wise, fashion wise.

^ I guess your right. But she has changed her "look" so many times, what other options does she have? Lol.. homeless look?

I heard her new look is "super hero," not Lady GAGA. But I really could care less what the singers do with their look.. I just like the music.

GaGa is one the sluttiest stars I've seen in a while.
Have you seen her music video for "Pokerface", she is such a hoochie.

I remember when Just Dance came out like a year ago, and I was so interested in hearing who sang this song. I don't want to say I regret thinking this, but I just wish EVERYONE didn't always request it.
I can't stand Poker Face and most of her other songs, but I like Starstruck and The Fame.
