Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta (; born March 28, 1986), known professionally as Lady Gaga, is an American singer, songwriter, and actress. She is known for reinventing her image and showcasing versatility in entertainment. Gaga started performing as a teenager by singing at open mic nights and acting in school plays. She studied at Collaborative Arts Project 21 before leaving to pursue a music career. After a contract cancellation by Def Jam Recordings, Gaga worked as a songwriter for Sony/ATV Music Publishing. In 2007, she signed with Interscope Records and KonLive Distribution. Her breakthrough came the following year with her debut studio album, The Fame, and its number-one singles "Just Dance" and "Poker Face". The album was later reissued along with The Fame Monster (2009), which yielded the successful singles "Bad Romance", "Alejandro" and "Telephone".

Gaga's five succeeding albums all debuted atop the US Billboard 200. Her second full-length album, Born This Way (2011), explored electronic rock and techno-pop and sold more than one million copies in the first week. Its title track became the fastest-selling song on the iTunes Store, with over one million downloads in less than a week. Following her EDM-influenced third album, Artpop (2013), she pursued jazz on the album Cheek to Cheek (2014) with Tony Bennett, and delved into soft rock on the album Joanne (2016). She ventured into acting, winning awards for her leading roles in the miniseries (2015–2016) and the musical film A Star Is Born (2018). Her contributions to the latter's soundtrack, which spawned the chart-topping single "Shallow", made her the first woman to win an Academy Award, BAFTA Award, Golden Globe Award, and Grammy Award in one year. Gaga returned to dance-pop with her sixth studio album, Chromatica (2020), which yielded the number-one single "Rain on Me", and released her second and final collaborative album with Bennett, Love for Sale (2021). She followed this with a starring role in the film House of Gucci (2021).

Having sold an estimated 170million records, Gaga is one of the world's best selling music artists and the only female artist to achieve four singles each selling at least 10million copies globally. Her other accolades include 13 Grammy Awards, 18 MTV Video Music Awards, awards from the Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Council of Fashion Designers of America, and recognition as Billboard Artist of the Year (2010) and Woman of the Year (2015). She has also been included in several Forbes power rankings and ranked fourth on VH1's Greatest Women in Music (2012). Time named Gaga one of the 100 most influential people in the world in 2010 and 2019 and placed her on their All-Time 100 Fashion Icons list. Gaga's philanthropy and activism focus on mental health awareness and LGBT rights; she has her own non-profit organization, the Born This Way Foundation, which supports the wellness of young people. Her business ventures include Haus Labs, a vegan cosmetics brand launched in 2019.

Life and career

1986–2004: Early life

Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta was born into an upper-middle-class Catholic family on March 28, 1986, at Lenox Hill Hospital in Manhattan, New York City.[1] Both of her parents have Italian ancestry.[2] Her parents are Cynthia Louise, a philanthropist and business executive, and Internet entrepreneur Joseph Germanotta,[3] and she has a younger sister named Natali.[4] Brought up on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, Gaga said in an interview that her parents came from lower-class families and worked hard for everything.[5] [6] From age 11, she attended the Convent of the Sacred Heart, a private all-girls Roman Catholic school.[7] Gaga has described her high-school self as "very dedicated, very studious, very disciplined" but also "a bit insecure". She considered herself a misfit and was mocked for "being either too provocative or too eccentric".

Gaga began playing the piano at age four when her mother insisted she become "a cultured young woman". She took piano lessons and practiced through her childhood. The lessons taught her to create music by ear, which Gaga preferred over reading sheet music. Her parents encouraged her to pursue music and enrolled her in Creative Arts Camp. As a teenager, she played at open mic nights. Gaga played the lead roles of Adelaide in the play Guys and Dolls and Philia in the play A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum at Regis High School.[8] She also studied method acting at the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute for ten years.[9] Gaga unsuccessfully auditioned for New York shows, though did appear in a small background role as a high-school student in a 2001 episode of The Sopranos titled "The Telltale Moozadell".[10] She later said of her inclination towards music:

In 2003, Gaga gained early admission to Collaborative Arts Project 21, a music school at New York University (NYU)'s Tisch School of the Arts, and lived in an NYU dorm. She studied music there and improved her songwriting skills by writing essays on art, religion, social issues, and politics, including a thesis on pop artists Spencer Tunick and Damien Hirst.[11] [12] In 2005, Gaga withdrew from school during the second semester of her second year to focus on her music career.[13] That year, she also played an unsuspecting diner customer for MTV's Boiling Points, a prank reality television show.[14]

In a 2014 interview, Gaga said she was raped at age 19 by her producer, and later underwent mental and physical therapy for this.[15] She has post-traumatic stress disorder and attributes it to the incident, and has credited support from doctors, family, and friends with helping her.[16] Gaga later gave additional details about the rape, including that "the person who raped me dropped me off pregnant on a corner at my parents' house because I was vomiting and sick. Because I'd been abused. I was locked away in a studio for months."[17]

2005–2007: Career beginnings

In 2005, Gaga recorded two songs with hip-hop artist Melle Mel for an audio book accompanying Cricket Casey's children's novel The Portal in the Park.[18] She also formed a band called the SGBand with some friends from NYU.[8] They played gigs around New York and became a fixture of the downtown Lower East Side club scene.[8] After the 2006 Songwriters Hall of Fame New Songwriters Showcase at the Cutting Room in June, talent scout Wendy Starland recommended her to music producer Rob Fusari.[19] Fusari collaborated with Gaga, who traveled daily to New Jersey, helping to develop her songs and compose new material. The producer said they began dating in May 2006, and claimed to have been the first person to call her "Lady Gaga", which was derived from Queen's song "Radio Ga Ga".[20] Their relationship lasted until January 2007.[21]

Fusari and Gaga established a company called "Team Lovechild, LLC" to promote her career.[20] They recorded and produced electropop tracks, sending them to music industry executives. Joshua Sarubin, the head of Artists and repertoire (A&R) at Def Jam Recordings, responded positively and, after approval from Sarubin's boss Antonio "L.A." Reid, Gaga was signed to Def Jam in September2006. She was dropped from the label three months later[22] and returned to her family home for Christmas. Gaga began performing at neo-burlesque shows, which according to her represented freedom.[23] During this time, she met performance artist Lady Starlight, who helped mold her onstage persona.[24] The pair began performing at downtown club venues like the Mercury Lounge, the Bitter End, and the Rockwood Music Hall. Their live performance art piece, known as "Lady Gaga and the Starlight Revue" and billed as "The Ultimate Pop Burlesque Rockshow", was a tribute to 1970s variety acts.[25] [26] They performed at the 2007 Lollapalooza music festival.[25]

Having initially focused on avant-garde electronic dance music, Gaga began to incorporate pop melodies and the glam rock style of David Bowie and Queen into her songs. While Gaga and Starlight were performing, Fusari continued to develop the songs he had created with her, sending them to the producer and record executive Vincent Herbert.[27] In November 2007, Herbert signed Gaga to his label Streamline Records, an imprint of Interscope Records, established that month.[28] Gaga later credited Herbert as the man who discovered her.[29] Having served as an apprentice songwriter during an internship at Famous Music Publishing, Gaga struck a music publishing deal with Sony/ATV. As a result, she was hired to write songs for Britney Spears, New Kids on the Block, Fergie, and the Pussycat Dolls.[30] At Interscope, musician Akon was impressed with her singing abilities when she sang a reference vocal for one of his tracks in studio.[31] Akon convinced Jimmy Iovine, chairman and CEO of Interscope Geffen A&M Records (a brother company for Def Jam), to form a joint deal by having Gaga also sign with his own label KonLive, making her his "franchise player".[32]

In late 2007, Gaga met with songwriter and producer RedOne.[33] She collaborated with him in the recording studio for a week on her debut album, signing with Cherrytree Records, an Interscope imprint established by producer and songwriter Martin Kierszenbaum; she also wrote four songs with Kierszenbaum. Despite securing a record deal, she said that some radio stations found her music too "racy", "dance-oriented", and "underground" for the mainstream market, to which she replied: "My name is Lady Gaga, I've been on the music scene for years, and I'm telling you, this is what's next."[7]

2008–2010: Breakthrough with The Fame and The Fame Monster

By 2008, Gaga had relocated to Los Angeles to work extensively with her record label to complete her debut album, The Fame, and to set up her own creative team called the Haus of Gaga, modeled on Andy Warhol's The Factory.[34] [35] The Fame was released on August 19, 2008,[36] and reached number one in Austria, Canada, Germany, Ireland, Switzerland and the UK, as well as the top five in Australia and the US.[37] [38] Its first two singles, "Just Dance" and "Poker Face", reached number one in the United States, Australia,[39] Canada[40] and the UK. The latter was also the world's bestselling single of 2009, with 9.8 million copies sold that year, and spent a record 83 weeks on Billboard magazine's Digital Songs chart.[41] [42] Three other singles, "Eh, Eh (Nothing Else I Can Say)", "LoveGame" and "Paparazzi", were released from the album;[43] the lattermost reached number one in Germany.[44] Remixed versions of the singles from The Fame, except "Eh, Eh (Nothing Else I Can Say)", were included on Hitmixes in August 2009.[45] At the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards, The Fame and "Poker Face" won Best Dance/Electronica Album and Best Dance Recording, respectively.[46]

Following her opening act on the Pussycat Dolls' 2009 Doll Domination Tour in Europe and Oceania, Gaga headlined her worldwide The Fame Ball Tour, which ran from March to September 2009. While traveling the globe, she wrote eight songs for The Fame Monster, a reissue of The Fame.[47] Those new songs were also released as a standalone EP on November 18, 2009.[48] Its first single, "Bad Romance", was released one month earlier[49] and went number one in Canada[40] and the UK, and number two in the US, Australia[50] and New Zealand.[51] "Telephone", with Beyoncé, followed as the second single from the EP and became Gaga's fourth UK number one.[52] [53] Its third single was "Alejandro",[54] which reached number one in Finland[55] and attracted controversy when its music video was deemed blasphemous by the Catholic League.[56] Both tracks reached the top five in the US. The video for "Bad Romance" became the most watched on YouTube in April 2010, and that October, Gaga became the first person with more than one billion combined views.[57] [58] At the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards, she won eight awards from 13 nominations, including Video of the Year for "Bad Romance".[59] She was the most nominated artist for a single year, and the first woman to receive two nominations for Video of the Year at the same ceremony.[60] The Fame Monster won the Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Album, and "Bad Romance" won Best Female Pop Vocal Performance and Best Short Form Music Video at the 53rd Annual Grammy Awards.[61]

In 2009, Gaga spent a record 150 weeks on the UK Singles Chart and became the most downloaded female act in a year in the US, with 11.1 million downloads sold, earning an entry in the Guinness Book of World Records.[62] [63] Worldwide, The Fame and The Fame Monster together have sold more than 15 million copies, and the latter was 2010's second bestselling album.[64] [65] [66] Its success allowed Gaga to start her second worldwide concert tour, The Monster Ball Tour, and release The Remix, her final record with Cherrytree Records[67] and among the bestselling remix albums of all time.[68] [69] The Monster Ball Tour ran from November 2009 to May 2011 and grossed $227.4 million, making it the highest-grossing concert tour for a debut headlining artist.[70] [71] Concerts performed at Madison Square Garden in New York City were filmed for an HBO television special, .[72] Gaga also performed songs from her albums at the 2009 Royal Variety Performance, the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards, and the 2010 Brit Awards.[73] Before Michael Jackson's death, Gaga was set to take part in his canceled This Is It concert series at the O2 Arena in the UK.[74]

During this era, Gaga ventured into business, collaborating with consumer electronics company Monster Cable Products to create in-ear, jewel-encrusted headphones called Heartbeats by Lady Gaga.[75] She also partnered with Polaroid in January 2010 as their creative director and announced a suite of photo-capture products called Grey Label.[76] [77] Her collaboration with her past record producer and ex-boyfriend Rob Fusari led to a lawsuit against her production team, Mermaid Music LLC. At this time, Gaga was tested borderline positive for lupus but claimed not to be affected by the symptoms and hoped to maintain a healthy lifestyle.[78] [79]

In February 2011, Gaga released "Born This Way", the lead single from her studio album of the same name. The song sold more than one million copies within five days, earning the Guinness World Record for the fastest selling single on iTunes.

In 2011, Gaga also worked with Tony Bennett on a jazz version of "The Lady Is a Tramp",[97] with Elton John on "Hello Hello" for the animated feature film Gnomeo & Juliet,[98] and with The Lonely Island and Justin Timberlake on "3-Way (The Golden Rule)".[99] She also performed a concert at the Sydney Town Hall in Australia that year to promote Born This Way and to celebrate former US President Bill Clinton's 65th birthday.[100] In November, she was featured in a Thanksgiving television special titled A Very Gaga Thanksgiving, which attracted 5.7 million American viewers and spawned the release of her fourth EP, A Very Gaga Holiday.[101] In 2012, Gaga guest-starred as an animated version of herself in an episode of The Simpsons called "Lisa Goes Gaga",[102] and released her first fragrance, Lady Gaga Fame, followed by a second one, Eau de Gaga, in 2014.

Gaga played a witch named Scathach in , the series' sixth season,[154] which ran from September to November 2016.[155] [156] Her role in the fifth season of the show ultimately influenced her future music, prompting her to feature "the art of darkness".[157] In September 2016, she released her fifth album's lead single, "Perfect Illusion", which topped the charts in France and reached number 15 in the US.[158] [159] [160] The album, titled Joanne, was named after Gaga's late aunt, who was an inspiration for the music.[161] It was released on October 21, 2016, and became Gaga's fourth number one album on the Billboard 200, making her the first woman to reach the US chart's summit four times in the 2010s.[162] The album's second single, "Million Reasons", followed the next month and reached number four in the US.[160] [163] She later released a piano version of the album's title track in 2018,[164] which won a Grammy for Best Pop Solo Performance.[165] To promote the album, Gaga embarked on the three-date Dive Bar Tour.[166]

The film follows Ally's relationship with singer Jackson Maine (played by Cooper), which becomes strained after her career begins to overshadow his. It received acclaim from critics, with a consensus that the movie had "appealing leads, deft direction, and an affecting love story".[182] Cooper approached Gaga after seeing her perform at a cancer research fundraiser.

Gaga later offered a $500,000 reward for the return of her pets.[219] [220] Two days later, on February 26, a woman brought the dogs to a police station in Los Angeles. Both were unharmed. Los Angeles Police initially said the woman who dropped off the dogs did not appear to be involved with the shooting,[221] [222] but on April 29, she was one of five people charged in connection with the shooting and theft.[223] In December 2022, James Howard Jackson, the man who shot Fischer, was sentenced to 21 years in prison.[224]

In April 2021, Gaga teamed up with Champagne brand Dom Pérignon, and appeared in an ad shot by Nick Knight.[225] On September 3, she released her third remix album, Dawn of Chromatica.[226] This was followed by her second collaborative album with Tony Bennett, titled Love for Sale, on September 30.[227] The record received generally favorable reviews, and debuted at number eight in the US.[228] [229] The album's promotional rollout included the television special , released in November 2021, on CBS, which featured select performances from the duo's August 3 and 5 performances at Radio City Music Hall.[230] [231] Another taped performance by the duo recorded for MTV Unplugged was released that December.[232] At the 64th Annual Grammy Awards, Love for Sale won Gaga and Bennett the award for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album.[233]

After an appearance in the television special , in which Gaga sang "Smelly Cat" with Lisa Kudrow,[234] she portrayed Patrizia Reggiani, who was convicted of hiring a hitman to murder her ex-husband and former head of the Gucci fashion house Maurizio Gucci (played by Adam Driver), in Ridley Scott's biographical crime film titled House of Gucci.[235] [236] For the part, Gaga learned to speak with an Italian accent. She also stayed in character for 18 months, speaking with an accent for nine months during that period.[237] Her method acting took a toll on her mental wellbeing, and towards the end of filming she had to be accompanied on-set by a psychiatric nurse.[238] The film was released on November 24, 2021, to mixed reviews, though critics praised Gaga's performance as "note-perfect".[239] She earned the New York Film Critics Circle Award, and nominations for the BAFTA Award, Critics' Choice Award, Golden Globe Award and Screen Actors Guild Award for Best Actress.[240] Gaga co-wrote the song "Hold My Hand" for the 2022 film ,[241] and also composed the score alongside Hans Zimmer and Harold Faltermeyer.[242] She performed "Hold My Hand" live at the 95th Academy Awards, where it was nominated for Best Original Song.[243] The track also earned Gaga her third win for Best Original Song at the Satellite Awards.[244] In July 2022, she embarked on The Chromatica Ball stadium tour,[245] which concluded that September.[246] It grossed $112.4 million from 834,000 tickets sold throughout twenty dates and produced an HBO concert special titled Gaga Chromatica Ball.[247] By the end of the year, she became the highest grossing female artist touring in 2022.[248] Gaga was appointed as co-chair of the President's Committee on the Arts and Humanities by President Joe Biden in April 2023,[249] and collaborated with the Rolling Stones on the song "Sweet Sounds of Heaven", also featuring Stevie Wonder, from their album Hackney Diamonds that year.[250]

2024: Joker: Folie à Deux and upcoming eighth studio album

Gaga was the featured artist for season two of the online video game Fortnite spin-off, Fortnite Festival, which ran from February to April 2024.[251] She announced her upcoming eighth studio album in May 2024 through Gaga Chromatica Ball, which contained a snippet of new music at the end.[252] In July, she performed a rendition of Zizi Jeanmaire's "Mon truc en plumes" at the 2024 Summer Olympics opening ceremony in Paris,[253] and confirmed her engagement to Michael Polansky,[254] four years after they began dating.[255] Gaga released the single "Die with a Smile", in collaboration with Bruno Mars, on August 16, 2024.[256] She is set to star with Joaquin Phoenix in the film in October 2024.[257]

Artistry

Influences

Gaga grew up listening to artists such as Michael Jackson,[258] the Beatles, Stevie Wonder, Queen, Bruce Springsteen, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Whitney Houston,[259] Elton John, Prince,[260] [261] En Vogue, TLC,[262] Christina Aguilera,[263] Janet Jackson,[264] and Blondie,[265] who have all influenced her music.[266] Gaga's musical inspiration varies from dance-pop singers such as Madonna and Michael Jackson to glam rock artists such as David Bowie and Freddie Mercury, as well as the theatrics of the pop artist Andy Warhol and her own performance roots in musical theater.[267] She has been compared to Madonna, who has said that she sees herself reflected in Gaga.[268] Gaga has expressed her desire to revolutionize pop music the way Madonna did.[269] Gaga has also cited heavy metal bands as an influence, specifically Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath and Marilyn Manson.[270] [271] [272] [273] She has credited Beyoncé as a key inspiration to pursue a musical career.[274]

Gaga was inspired by her mother to be interested in fashion, which would later become a major influence and integrated with her music.[275] Stylistically, Gaga has been compared to Leigh Bowery, Isabella Blow, and Cher;[276] [277] she once commented that as a child, she absorbed Cher's fashion sense and made it her own. Gaga became friends with British fashion designer Alexander McQueen shortly before his suicide in 2010, and became known for wearing his designs, particularly his towering armadillo shoes.[278] She has called fashion designer Donatella Versace her muse; Versace referred to Gaga as "the fresh Donatella".[279] [280] Gaga has also been influenced by Princess Diana, whom she has admired since childhood.[281]

Gaga has called the Indian alternative medicine advocate Deepak Chopra a "true inspiration",[282] and has also quoted Indian leader Osho's book Creativity on Twitter. Gaga said she was influenced by Osho's work in valuing rebellion through creativity and equality.[283]

Musical style and themes

Critics have analyzed and scrutinized Gaga's musical and performance style, as she has experimented with new ideas and images throughout her career. She has said that she finds the continual reinvention "liberating", which she has been drawn to since childhood.[284] Gaga combines a variety of music genres, particularly incorporating elements of rock into her pop and dance music. She has also branched out into jazz and other non-pop musical genres. Gaga's voice has been classified as a contralto, with a range spanning from B2 to B5.[285] [286] She has changed her vocal style regularly, and deemed Born This Way "much more vocally up to par with what I've always been capable of".[287] [288] In summing up her voice, Entertainment Weekly wrote: "There's an immense emotional intelligence behind the way she uses her voice. Almost never does she overwhelm a song with her vocal ability, recognizing instead that artistry is to be found in nuance rather than lung power."[289]

According to Evan Sawdey of PopMatters, Gaga managed "to get you moving and grooving at an almost effortless pace" with The Fame.[290] Gaga has said that she believes "all good music can be played on a piano and still sound like a hit".[291] Simon Reynolds wrote in 2010: "Everything about Gaga came from electroclash, except the music, which wasn't particularly 1980s, just ruthlessly catchy naughties pop glazed with Auto-Tune and undergirded with R&B-ish beats."[292]

Gaga's songs have covered a wide variety of concepts; The Fame discusses the lust for stardom, while the follow-up The Fame Monster expresses fame's dark side through monster metaphors. The Fame is an electropop and dance-pop album that has influences of 1980s pop and 1990s Europop,[293] whereas The Fame Monster displays Gaga's taste for pastiche, drawing on "Seventies arena glam, perky ABBA disco, and sugary throwbacks like Stacey Q".[294] Born This Way has lyrics in English, French, German, and Spanish and features themes common to Gaga's controversial songwriting such as sex, love, religion, money, drugs, identity, liberation, sexuality, freedom, and individualism.[295] The album explores new genres, such as electronic rock and techno.[296]

The themes in Artpop revolve around Gaga's personal views of fame, love, sex, feminism, self-empowerment, overcoming addiction, and reactions to media scrutiny.[297] Billboard described Artpop as "coherently channeling R&B, techno, disco and rock music".[298] With Cheek to Cheek, Gaga pursued the jazz genre.[299] Joanne, exploring the genres of country, funk, pop, dance, rock, electronic music and folk, was influenced by her personal life.[300] The A Star Is Born soundtrack contains elements of blues rock, country and bubblegum pop.[193] Billboard commented that its lyrics are about wanting change, its struggle, love, romance, and bonding, describing the music as "timeless, emotional, gritty and earnest. They sound like songs written by artists who, quite frankly, are supremely messed up but hit to the core of the listener."[301] On Chromatica, Gaga returned to her dance-pop roots, and discussed her struggles with mental health.[302] Her second jazz album, Love for Sale, consists of a tribute to Cole Porter.[303]

Videos and stage

Featuring constant costume changes and provocative visuals, Gaga's music videos are often described as short films. The video for "Telephone" earned Gaga the Guinness World Record for Most Product Placement in a Video. According to author Curtis Fogel, she explores bondage and sadomasochism and highlights prevalent feminist themes. The main themes of her music videos are sex, violence, and power. She has called herself "a little bit of a feminist" and asserted that she is "sexually empowering women".[304] Billboard ranked her sixth on its list of "The 100 Greatest Music Video Artists of All Time" in 2020, stating that "the name 'Lady Gaga' will forever be synonymous with culture-shifting music videos".[305]

Regarded as "one of the greatest living musical performers" by Rolling Stone,[306] Gaga has called herself a perfectionist when it comes to her elaborate shows. Her performances have been described as "highly entertaining and innovative"; the blood-spurting performance of "Paparazzi" at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards was described as "eye-popping" by MTV News and ranked among the best MTV VMA performances of all time by various publications.[307] [308] She continued the blood-soaked theme during The Monster Ball Tour, causing protests in England from family groups and fans in the aftermath of the Cumbria shootings, in which a taxi driver had killed 12 people, then himself.[309] At the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards, Gaga appeared in drag as her male alter ego, Jo Calderone, and delivered a lovesick monolog before a performance of her song "You and I".[310] As Gaga's choreographer and creative director, Laurieann Gibson provided material for her shows and videos for four years before she was replaced by her assistant Richard Jackson in 2014.[311]

In an October 2018 article for Billboard, Rebecca Schiller traced back Gaga's videography from "Just Dance" to the release of A Star Is Born. Schiller noted that following the Artpop era, Gaga's stripped-down approach to music was reflected in the clips for the singles from Joanne, taking the example of the music video of lead single "Perfect Illusion" where she eschewed "the elaborate outfits for shorts and a tee-shirt as she performed the song at a desert party". It continued with her performances in the film as well as her stage persona.[312] Reviewing The Chromatica Ball in 2022, Chris Willman of Variety wrote that Gaga "could have further played the authenticity card for all it's worth" after the release of Joanne and A Star Is Born, but instead "has determined to keep herself weird — or just weird enough to provide necessarily ballast to her more earnest inclinations".[313]

Public image

Public reception of her music, fashion sense, and persona is polarized. Because of her influence on modern culture, and her rise to global fame, sociologist Mathieu Deflem of the University of South Carolina has offered a course titled "Lady Gaga and the Sociology of the Fame" since early 2011 with the objective of unraveling "some of the sociologically relevant dimensions of the fame of Lady Gaga".[314] When Gaga met briefly with then-president Barack Obama at a Human Rights Campaign fundraiser, he found the interaction "intimidating" as she was dressed in 16-inch heels, making her the tallest woman in the room.[315] When interviewed by Barbara Walters for her annual ABC News special 10 Most Fascinating People in 2009, Gaga dismissed the claim that she is intersex as an urban legend. Responding to a question on this issue, she expressed her fondness for androgyny.[316]

Gaga's outlandish fashion sense has also served as an important aspect of her character.[276] [279] During her early career, members of the media compared her fashion choices to those of Christina Aguilera. In 2011, 121 women gathered at the Grammy Awards dressed in costumes similar to those worn by Gaga, earning the 2011 Guinness World Record for Largest Gathering of Lady Gaga Impersonators.[317] The Global Language Monitor named "Lady Gaga" as the Top Fashion Buzzword with her trademark "no pants" a close third.[318] Entertainment Weekly put her outfits on its end of the decade "best-of" list, saying that she "brought performance art into the mainstream".[319] People ranked her number one on their "Best Dressed Stars of 2021" list, writing that Gaga "strutted the streets in high-fashion designs, from a sculptural seersucker number to a black lace corseted gown—accessorizing each with elegant updos, sky-high heels and retro shades—like it was no sweat."[320]

Time placed Gaga on their All-Time 100 Fashion Icons list, stating: "Lady Gaga is just as notorious for her outrageous style as she is for her pop hits", mentioning outfits "made from plastic bubbles, Kermit the Frog dolls, and raw meat."[321] Gaga wore a dress made of raw beef to the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards, which was supplemented by boots, a purse, and a hat also made out of raw beef.[322] Partly awarded in recognition of the dress, Vogue named her one of the Best Dressed people of 2010 and Time named the dress the Fashion Statement of the year.[323] [324] It attracted the attention of worldwide media; the animal rights organization People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) found it offensive.[325] The meat dress was displayed at the National Museum of Women in the Arts in 2012,[326] and entered the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in September 2015.[327]

Gaga's fans call her "Mother Monster", and she often refers to them as "Little Monsters", a phrase she had tattooed on herself in dedication.[328] In his article "Lady Gaga Pioneered Online Fandom Culture As We Know It" for Vice, Jake Hall wrote that Gaga inspired several subsequent fan-brandings, such as those of Taylor Swift, Rihanna and Justin Bieber.[329] In July 2012, Gaga also co-founded the social networking service LittleMonsters.com, devoted to her fans.[330] Scott Hardy, CEO of Polaroid, praised Gaga for inspiring fans and for her close interactions with them on social media.[331]

Censorship

In 2011, lyrics of Gaga's song "Born This Way", which reference homosexuality and LGBT subjects, were censored by Malaysian broadcaster AMP Radio Networks as a precaution against government restrictions against songs which might violate "good taste or decency or [are] offensive to public feeling".[332] The same year, the Ministry of Culture of the People's Republic of China, reportedly enforcing a directive designed to tackle "poor taste and vulgar content", banned the publication of six of Gaga's songs from the album Born This Way on all Chinese music websites.[333] [334]

In 2014, her album Artpop was released in China with conditions being placed on the album artwork, covering her almost naked body as well as changing the title of the song "Sexxx Dreams" to "X Dreams".[335] In 2016, her meeting with the Dalai Lama resulted in the Chinese government adding her to a list of hostile foreign forces, and Chinese websites and media organizations were ordered to stop distributing her songs.[336] [337] The Publicity Department of the Chinese Communist Party also issued an order for state-controlled media to condemn the meeting.[338] In 2019, coverage of Gaga in the 91st Academy Awards was removed on some Chinese streaming platforms such as Mango TV and in 2021 her appearance was cut from Friends: The Reunion; both incidents received backlash from Chinese fans.[339] [340]

Activism

Philanthropy

After declining an invitation to appear on the single "We Are the World 25 for Haiti", because of rehearsals for her tour, to benefit victims of the 2010 Haiti earthquake, Gaga donated the proceeds of her January 2010 Radio City Music Hall concert to the country's reconstruction relief fund.[341] All profits from her online store that day were also donated, and Gaga announced that $500,000 was collected for the fund.[342] Hours after the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami hit Japan, Gaga tweeted a link to Japan Prayer Bracelets. All revenue from a bracelet she designed in conjunction with the company was donated to relief efforts;[343] these raised $1.5 million.[344] In June 2011, Gaga performed at MTV Japan's charity show in Makuhari Messe, which benefited the Japanese Red Cross.[345]

In 2012, Gaga joined the campaign group Artists Against Fracking.[346] That October, Yoko Ono gave Gaga and four other activists the LennonOno Grant for Peace in Reykjavík, Iceland.[347] The following month, Gaga pledged to donate $1 million to the American Red Cross to help the victims of Hurricane Sandy. Gaga has also contributed to the fight against HIV and AIDS, focusing on educating young women about the risks of the disease. In collaboration with Cyndi Lauper, Gaga joined forces with MAC Cosmetics to launch a line of lipstick under their supplementary cosmetic line, Viva Glam.[348] Sales have raised more than $202 million to fight HIV and AIDS.[349]

In April 2016, Gaga joined Vice President Joe Biden at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas to support his It's On Us campaign as he traveled to colleges on behalf of the organization, which has seen 250,000 students from more than 530 colleges sign a pledge of solidarity and activism.[350] Two months later, Gaga attended the 84th Annual US Conference of Mayors in Indianapolis where together with the Dalai Lama she talked about the power of kindness and how to make the world a more compassionate place.[351]

In April 2020, Gaga curated the televised benefit concert, One World: Together at Home, a collaboration with Global Citizen to benefit the World Health Organization's COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund.[352] [353] The special raised $127 million, which according to Forbes "puts it on par with the other legendary fundraiser, Live Aid, as the highest grossing charity concert in history."[354] In recognition of her contribution to the Black Lives Matter movement, Gaga received the Yolanda Denise King High Ground Award from the King Center's Beloved Community Awards in January 2021. In her acceptance speech, she denounced racism and white supremacy and addressed her social responsibility as a high-profile artist and white woman.[355]

Born This Way Foundation

See main article: Born This Way Foundation. In 2012, Gaga launched the Born This Way Foundation (BTWF), a non-profit organization that focuses on youth empowerment. It has been named after her 2011 single and album. Media proprietor Oprah Winfrey, writer Deepak Chopra, and US Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius spoke at the foundation's inauguration at Harvard University.[356] The foundation's original funding included $1.2 million from Gaga, $500,000 from the MacArthur Foundation, and $850,000 from Barneys New York.[357] In July 2012, the BTWF partnered with Office Depot for a series of limited edition back-to-school products, with 25% of its sales going towards the foundation, for a guaranteed donation of $1 million.[358] The foundation's initiatives have included the "Born Brave Bus" that followed Gaga on tour as a youth drop-in center as an initiative against bullying.[359] [360]

In October 2015, at the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence, Gaga joined 200 high school students, policy makers, and academic officials, including Peter Salovey, to discuss ways to recognize and channel emotions for positive outcomes.[361] In 2016, the foundation partnered with Intel, Vox Media, and Recode to fight online harassment.[362] The sales revenue of the 99th issue of the V magazine, which featured Gaga and Kinney, was donated to the foundation.[363] Gaga and Elton John released the clothing and accessories line Love Bravery at Macy's in May 2016. 25% of each purchase benefited the BTWF and the Elton John AIDS Foundation.[364] Gaga partnered with Starbucks for a week in June 2017 with the "Cups of Kindness" campaign, where the company donated 25 cents from some of the beverages sold to the foundation.[365] She also appeared in a video by Staples Inc. to raise funds for the foundation and DonorsChoose.org.[366]

On the 2018 World Kindness Day, Gaga partnered with the foundation to bring food and relief to a Red Cross shelter for people who have been forced to evacuate homes due to the California wildfires. The foundation also partnered with Starbucks and SoulCycle to thank California firefighters for their relief work during the crisis. Gaga had to previously evacuate her own home during the Woolsey Fire which spread through parts of Malibu.[367] In March 2019, she penned a letter to supporters of the BTWF, announcing the launch of a new pilot program for a teen mental health first aid project with the National Council for Behavioral Health. Gaga revealed her personal struggles with mental health in her letter and how she was able to get support which saved her life: "I know what it means to have someone support me and understand what I'm going through, and every young person in the world should have someone to turn to when they're hurting. It saved my life, and it will save theirs."[368] [369]

In September 2020, Gaga released an anthology book, Channel Kindness: Stories of Kindness and Community, featuring fifty-one stories about kindness, bravery, and resilience from young people all over the world collected by the BTWF, and introduced by herself.[370] She promoted it with a 21 days of kindness challenge on her social media, using the "BeKind21" hashtag.[371] In 2021, Gaga collaborated with the Champagne house Dom Pérignon to benefit the BTWF by releasing a limited edition of Rosé Vintage 2005 bottles along with a sculpture designed by her. The 110 exclusive pieces were sold at private sales, and the profit of $570,000 was donated to the foundation.[372] [373] On the 2021 World Kindness Day, Gaga released a 30-minute special, titled The Power of Kindness, as part of the foundation's Channel Kindness program, in which together with a mental health expert and a group of eleven young people, she explored the connection between kindness and mental health.[374]

LGBT advocacy

A bisexual woman, Gaga has been actively supporting LGBT rights worldwide.[375] She has attributed much of her early success as a mainstream artist to her gay fans and is considered a gay icon.[376] [377] Early in her career, Gaga had difficulty getting radio airplay, and stated: "The turning point for me was the gay community."[378] She thanked FlyLife, a Manhattan-based LGBT marketing company which worked with her label Interscope at the time, in the liner notes of The Fame.[379] One of her first televised performances was in May 2008 at the NewNowNext Awards, an awards show aired by the LGBT television network Logo.[380]

Gaga spoke at the 2009 National Equality March in Washington, D.C., to support the LGBT rights movement.[381] She attended the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards accompanied by four gay and lesbian former members of the United States Armed Forces who had been unable to serve openly under the US military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy, which banned open homosexuality in the military.[382] Gaga urged her fans via YouTube to contact their senators in an effort to overturn the policy. In September 2010, she spoke at a Servicemembers Legal Defense Network's rally in Portland, Maine. Following this event, The Advocate named her a "fierce advocate" for gays and lesbians.[383]

Gaga appeared at Europride, an international event dedicated to LGBT pride, in Rome in June 2011. She criticized the poor state of gay rights in many European countries and described gay people as "revolutionaries of love".[384] Later that year, she was referenced by teenager Jamey Rodemeyer in the hours prior to his death, with Rodemeyer having tweeted "@ladygaga bye mother monster, thank you for all you have done, paws up forever". Rodemeyer's suicide prompted Gaga to meet with then-President Barack Obama in order to address anti-gay bullying in American schools.[385] In 2011, she was also ordained as a minister by the Universal Life Church Monastery so that she could officiate the wedding of two female friends.[386]

In June 2016, during a vigil held in Los Angeles for victims of the attack at the gay nightclub Pulse in Orlando, Gaga read aloud the names of the 49 people killed in the attack, and gave a speech.[387] Later that month, she appeared in Human Rights Campaign's tribute video to the victims of the attack.[388] She opposed the presidency of Donald Trump and his military transgender ban.[389] [390] She supported former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for president in 2016.[391] In 2018, a leaked memo from Trump's office revealed that his administration wanted to change the legal definition of sex to exclude transgender Americans. Gaga was one of the many celebrities to condemn him and spread the #WontBeErased campaign to her Twitter followers.[392] [393] In January 2019, during one of her Enigma shows, she criticized Vice President Mike Pence for his wife Karen Pence working at an evangelical Christian school where LGBTQ people are turned away, calling him "the worst representation of what it means to be a Christian". Gaga also stated: "I am a Christian woman, and what I do know about Christianity is that we bear no prejudice, and everybody is welcome".[394] Gaga made a congratulatory speech commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall riots and the LGBTQ+ community's accomplishments at WorldPride NYC 2019 outside the Stonewall Inn, birthplace of the modern gay rights movement.[395]

Legacy

Gaga was named the "Queen of Pop" in a 2011 ranking by Rolling Stone based on record sales and social media metrics. In 2012, she ranked fourth in VH1's Greatest Women in Music[396] [397] and became a feature of the temporary exhibition The Elevated. From the Pharaoh to Lady Gaga, which marked the 150th anniversary of the National Museum in Warsaw.[398]

Gaga has often been praised for using controversy to bring attention to various issues.[399] According to Frankie Graddon of The Independent, Gaga—who wore a meat dress to highlight her distaste for the US military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy—influenced protest dressing on red carpet.[400] Billboard named her "the Greatest Pop Star of 2009", asserting that "to say that her one-year rise from rookie to MVP was meteoric doesn't quite cut it, as she wasn't just successful, but game-changing—thanks to her voracious appetite for reinvention."[401] Because of The Fame success—it was listed as one of the 100 Greatest Debut Albums of All-Time by Rolling Stone in 2013[402] —Gaga has been credited as one of the musicians that popularized synth-pop in the late 2000s and early 2010s.[403]

According to Kelefa Sanneh of The New Yorker, "Lady Gaga blazed a trail for truculent pop stars by treating her own celebrity as an evolving art project."[404] Including Born This Way as one of the 50 best female albums of all time, Rolling Stone Rob Sheffield considers it "hard to remember a world where we didn't have Gaga, although we're pretty sure it was a lot more boring".[405] In 2015, Time also noted that Gaga had "practically invented the current era of pop music as spectacle".[406] A 2017 journal published by Psychology of Aesthetics, Creativity, and the Arts studying structural patterns in melodies of earworm songs compiled lists of catchiest tracks from 3,000 participants, in which Gaga's "Bad Romance", "Alejandro", and "Poker Face" ranked number one, eight, and nine, respectively. In 2018, NPR named her the second most influential female artist of the 21st century, noting her as "one of the first big artists of the 'Internet age.[407] Gaga and her work have influenced various artists including Miley Cyrus,[408] Nicki Minaj,[409] Ellie Goulding,[410] Halsey,[411] Jennifer Lopez,[412] Beyoncé,[413] Nick Jonas,[414] Sam Smith,[415] Noah Cyrus,[416] Katherine Langford,[417] MGMT,[418] Allie X,[419] Greyson Chance,[420] Cardi B,[421] Rina Sawayama,[422] Blackpink,[423] Madison Beer,[424] Ren of NU'EST,[425] Slayyyter,[426] Bebe Rexha,[427] Bree Runway,[428] Celeste,[429] Kim Petras,[430] JoJo Siwa,[431] Pabllo Vittar,[432] Ava Max,[433] Doja Cat,[434] Chaeyoung of Twice,[435] Kanye West,[436] Rachel Zegler,[437] SZA,[438] Raye,[439] Grace Gaustad,[440] Laufey,[441] and Chappell Roan.[442]

A new genus of ferns, Gaga, and three species, G. germanotta, G. monstraparva and Kaikaia gaga, have been named in her honor. The name monstraparva alluded to Gaga's fans, known as Little Monsters, since their symbol is the outstretched "monster claw" hand, which resembles a tightly rolled young fern leaf prior to unfurling.[443] [444] Gaga also has an extinct mammal, Gagadon minimonstrum,[445] and a parasitic wasp, Aleiodes gaga, named for her.[446] [447]

In Taichung, Taiwan, July 3 is designated as "Lady Gaga Day" marking the first day Gaga visited the country in 2011.[448] In May 2021, to celebrate the tenth anniversary of Born This Way and its cultural impact, West Hollywood mayor, Lindsey P. Horvath, presented Gaga with a key to the city and declared May 23 as "Born This Way Day." A street painting with the Daniel Quasar's version of the pride flag featuring the album's title was also unveiled on Robertson Boulevard as a tribute to the album, and how it has inspired the LGBT community over the years.[449]
