Lady Gaga Has Taken The World By Storm

Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta is a New York City native and is better known by her stage name of Lady Gaga. She is a singer, songwriter, musician, dancer and top-selling recording artist whose influence comes from glam rock artists David Bowie and Queen. Her musical sound includes pop, dance, and electronica.

Since Lady Gaga turned up on the music scene, she has taken the world by storm. She has released two albums, selling millions of copies world-wide, with sales for both albums still going strong. She has also embarked on her first sold-out tour in 2009, The Fame tour, and is now headlining her second tour, The Monster Ball tour, which is jam packed with fans, and every venue is always sold-out.

Lady Gaga has fans all over the world and everywhere you turn people are going "gaga" for this extremely talented and standout artist. They sing her songs, dress like her, and aspire to be like her. They just can't get enough of Lady Gaga.

The Fame , was released in 2008 and was Lady Gaga's first studio album. It was certified 3x in the US, selling over three million copies, and garnered the hit singles Just Dance , Poker Face , Love Game, and Paparazzi. Eh, Eh (Nothing Else I Can Say) was not released in the United States, but it was released as a single internationally.

The Fame Monster, was released in 2009, and was certified platinum in the US, selling over one million copies, and garnered the hit singles Bad Romance , Telephone (featuring Beyonce) , and Alejandro. The Fame Monster was released as a stand alone album, but it was also released as a 2-disc deluxe edition, which included all the songs from The Fame Monster album plus all the songs from The Fame album.

Both albums are great and have catchy songs that will stick in your head for a long, long time. I have both of these albums in my collection and I just can't get enough.

There is also a third album in the works by Lady Gaga, which will be released sometime in 2011. One of the songs from her upcoming album called You And I (a rock-n-roll song) was performed by Lady Gaga at her Monster Ball concert at Madison Square Garden on July 6, 2010, and was/is probably performed at every other concert venue as well.

Lady Gaga has been nominated for many music awards and has taken many of them home. She has 103 nominations and 66 wins under her belt, which is an amazing accomplishment for an artist who hasn't even been around that long. She has won awards for her album The Fame, and for her singles Poker Face, Just Dance, Paparazzi, Love Game, and Bad Romance (the single from The Fame Monster album).
