Lady Gaga
American singer and songwriter
Her real name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta. Born and raised in New York City, she primarily studied at the Convent of the Sacred Heart and briefly attended New York University\'s Tisch School of the Arts before withdrawing to focus on her musical career.
Lady Gaga came to prominence as a recording artist following the release of her debut album The Fame (2008), which was a critical and commercial success that topped charts around the world and included the international number-one singles "Just Dance" and "Poker Face".
With constant costume changes, backup dancers, and provocative visuals, Gaga\'s music videos are often described as short films. "Being provocative is not just about getting people\'s attention. It\'s about saying something that really affects people in a real way, in a positive way," she professes. Her performances are described as "highly entertaining and innovative".
