Know About Her Biography

Lady Gaga

In 2007, Sony/ATV Music Publishing, Interscope Records, and KonLive Distribution signed her as a composer after Def Jam Recordings dissolved her contract. Fame, her debut studio album, and its #1 hits “Just Dance” and “Poker Face” started Gaga’s career the following year. Hits “Bad Romance,” “Telephone,” and “Alejandro” came on the extended play The Fame Monster (2009) after the album was republished.

Five more Gaga albums hit the 200. Jazz album Cheek to Cheek (2014) with Tony Bennett and soft rock album Joanne (2016) followed by EDM-influenced third album Artpop (2013) and lead single “Applause.” Her 2015–2016 and 2018 turns in American Horror Story. Hotel and A Star Is Born earned her awards. She became the first woman to win an Academy Award, BAFTA Award, Golden Globe Award, and Grammy Award in one year for her soundtrack work, which included “Shallow.” With her sixth studio album, Chromatica (2020), and number-one song “Rain on Me,” Gaga returned to dance-pop. Love for Sale, her second album with Bennett, and House of Gucci, a biography, were released in 2021.

Early Life And Career

Germanotta was born in NYC to Italian Americans. She started playing music early and performed in NYC clubs before her teens. After attending Manhattan’s all-girls Convent of the Sacred Heart, she studied music at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. After two years at Tisch, she quit to pursue her job. After leaving, Germanotta became Lady Gaga, a glam rock and over-the-top fashion designer. She and Lady Starlight created the Ultimate Pop Burlesque Rockshow in 2007.

She modeled herself on David Bowie during his Ziggy Stardust period, the New York Dolls, Grace Slick, and Freddie Mercury—her stage name was derived from Queen’s song “Radio Ga Ga”—and created a unique music character. Her fashion, up-tempo synthetic dance music, and edgy, theatrical performance created spectacular sounds and visuals. Through her creative firm, Haus of Gaga, Lady Gaga designed sexually charged clothing like sparkling wigs and space-age bodysuits while composing music.

After Achieving Success, There Is the Fame Monster

After becoming a US and European club favorite, her debut single, “Just Dance,” topped the Billboard Pop Songs chart (sometimes called the radio chart). Three more singles from The Fame reached number one on the radio: “Poker Face,” “LoveGame,” and “Paparazzi.” This feat made Lady Gaga the first artist in the seventeen-year history of that chart to achieve four number ones on a debut album.

Critically acclaimed and commercially successful, The Fame sold over eight million copies globally by year’s end in 2009. Lady Gaga received five Grammy nominations for the album, including album and song of the year (“Poker Face”). She won two—Best Dance Recording (“Poker Face”) and Best Electronic/Dance Album (The Fame)—and her opening duet with Sir Elton John was a highly scrutinized part of the 2010 Grammys broadcast. She won three Brit Awards in February 2010—Best International Female, Best Album, and Breakthrough Act—at the British equivalent of the Grammys.

Bad Romance” was the lead single from her November 2009 album, The Fame Monster, which had been planned as a bonus disc. “Telephone” (which featured Beyoncé and had a nine-minute music video featuring the two artists that referenced Kill Bill: Vol. 1 [2003] by Quentin Tarantino) and “Alejandro” were subsequent popular singles from the album. Jonas Kerlund was in charge of directing the video.
Lady Gaga’s sold-out tour began with The Fame Monster, one of 2010’s biggest hits. She headlined Lollapalooza in Chicago and performed to a record 20,000 on NBC’s Today. Lady Gaga won three awards at the 2011 Grammys—Best Pop Vocal Album (The Fame Monster), Best Female Pop Vocal Performance (for “Bad Romance”), and Best Short Form Video—after making her grand entrance in a gigantic egg.

Later Albums Details Of Lady Gaga

Older music inspired Lady Gaga’s third album, Born This Way (2011). Lady Gaga, a blonde dance-pop singer known for provocation, was often compared to Madonna, notably on the album’s first two hits. The title track was a self-empowerment hymn-like Madonna’s 1989 “Express Yourself,” while “Judas” boldly blended sexual and theological images. Both songs hit fast. Queen guitarist Brian May and Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Band saxophonist Clarence Clemons appeared on other pieces.

Gaga released Artpop in 2013. The effervescent lead song “Applause” continued her chart success, but the album was a commercial flop. The following year, she released Cheek to Cheek, a Tony Bennett-recorded compilation of standards. The album topped the Billboard 200, jazz, and Traditional Jazz charts and won the Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album Grammy. They also won for their second album, Cole Porter’s tribute Love for Sale (2021).

Lady Gaga released solo albums during this time. Joanne (2016) was underwhelming until Lady Gaga’s February 2017 halftime Super Bowl performance. Lady Gaga combined disco and electronic pop in her sixth studio album, Chromatica (2020).
