Who IS that?! We all wondered. The answer, 'Lady GaGa'. I didn't know if it was a man or a woman ( calling yourself 'lady' anything is usually a sign you are anything but), I didn't know what she did or why she had a serious entourage when she was not famous in the UK. Neverless, I was impressed by her entrance, the most diva I had ever seen, and also admired the effort she put into creating her charater - even when my friend took this photo later in the party on her little Canon digi, her posse quickly moved in behind her to create a group pouty shot. In the words of Tyra Banks, 'fierce'.
Now I know that a. she is a woman and b. she is a super popstar! Her single 'Just Dance' is currently sitting at number one; its really catchy, and she appears to have written it herself, can sing live ect, so great, kudos to Gaga musically....
But then there is her style! I look forward to the rubbish free newspapers these days, because there is always a new picture of her pounding the streets of London in something crazy! There was the luminous lime leotard with nothing but a leather jacket, the nude knickers studded with gem stones, all in sub zero London temperatures! Then yesterday, when I thought it couldn't get any better, she made a bow out of hair?! Lady Gaga, I salute you for adding a little creativity and interest to the dull winter season!
I think that she is adding a much needed touch of 'star' to pop. Popmusic isn't about musicianship, its about showmanship; her fresh approach to style and diva attitude is creating a wonderful character that we can all wonder about, and most importantly look at! I want a spectacle, not 'real', 'nice' people who care about animals a la Leona Lewis. I look forward to Monday's free Metro with relish, what will she wear next?!

I love how she just doesn't seem to care what people think of how she dresses.
Oh, and she's playing G-A-Y at Heaven tonight, and it's free, just incase you were interested.
Um... isn't she cold? ;)
I see what you mean.. but I'm still yet to be totally won over
Great post! And i'm glad to know a little more about her because I too, have been hearing about her more and more!
The firts time i heard of her was on The Hills, and they said she was the next big thing - apparently they were right!
I saw the gemstone nickers in the newspaper, love them! And also like you, love the 'bow hair' - what a genius idea?
I haven't actually heard her music, but she is a fashion icon already, no doubt!
Take care! x
Nice post, i only heard of her a few weeks ago, the picture which intriged me most was the bow out of hair, i would love to know how she did it. x
does anyone else think she looks exactly like Christina Aguilera?
Rumour has it (Perez Hilton) that Christina totally copied the bleach blonde bangs look from GaGa. My first photo of her in fashion week was taken sept 08 so it seems very plausible that Christina's recent look is influenced from her..
I am biased though obviously!
haha she never wears pants! she makes me laugh. that's exciting you saw her out! i did like Just Dance when it first came out..but i am over it now! but she is still talented. and good on her for dressing however she wants to!
thanks for your comment on my vest outfit too! very nice of you. :) xxx LM
That hair bow is amazing! It must have been wild to see her in person. I'm torn between utter admiration for her fierceness (really best term, as you pointed out) and thinking she is so ridiculous! I think admiration wins out because I do like that song...
She is totally crazy, but in an oh so good way!
She looks like Christina to me. I don't know a lot about her but I like her song.
shes definitely fun and inspiring! i like her style. i dont like her music, though. its a bit too cheap for me. but i totally agree. musicbiz is about showmanship and in that department, she definitely has it going.
I sort of hate myself for liking her so much... I wish I had an opportunity to dress so ridiculously, and a posse. x
