GAGA for Gaga!

I LOVE Lady Gaga! I think she is so new, fresh, and funky! Not to mention a very very talented singer and songwriter. Each song of hers sounds like nothing else out on the market AND her theatrical performances are sooo incredible. Every music video just sucks you into this crazy world that is Lady Gaga. And for those of you that think shes just another "pop star"...get this! At 14, she was playing night clubs in New York and by 17 she received early admission to the Tisch School of the Arts at NYU. Now 23, signed at age 20, she's literally taking over the pop music scene. Plus she helps design the costumes for her concerts and videos which are so beautiful and intriguing.

She also has worked with MAC Cosmetics to create a really cute barbie-pink lipstick color (which I happen to have and love) for their Viva Glam collection which donates every cent of the sales price to MAC AIDS Fund to support people living with AIDS.

If you want to watch a video of Lady Gaga, here is a link to her singing Speechless on The Ellen Show. It really displays her singing abilities! Plus this is one of my favorite Gaga songs!! She tells Ellen in and interview that she always sings live (doesn't lip sync) which surprises Ellen. Lady Gaga's follows with "I'm a singer, isn't that what we're supposed to do...sing."

“And, now, I'm just trying to change the world one sequin at a time.” -Lady Gaga
