Lady Gaga is one of the most famous artists in the twenty-first century. She has shown off some of the most unique flares of any artist in the modern age, including some of the most innovative lyrics in music today. She has also made a name for herself in more of a strange light that is quite different in comparison to other artists like Katy Perry and singers like Brittney Spears. Here are a few facts about Lady Gaga that will make you, not understand her, but learn to like her even more.
How did she learn how to play the Piano?
She actually learned entirely by herself how to play the Piano. She was just four years old when she took it up and hasn’t looked back ever since she is now a classically trained pianist implementing all of her styles to her music.
What is her real name?
Her real name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, quite the long name she has there but decided to stick with a more memorable name which is Lady Gaga. The name came about from her musical manager who got the name from a Queen song, which was a band where she got some of her influence from. The name of the song is called Radio Ga Ga.
Does she always wear weird clothing?
No, she didn’t always wear weird clothing there was a time where she was just referred to as the “Stefani Band,” and she wore regular shirts and pants just like anyone else and this was before she took on the persona of Lady Gaga. To add onto that, she was also a brunette which she has changed with her more recent appearances.
What school did she attend?
She attended a private school that not only did she go to, but she attended it along with Nicky and Paris Hilton. She even stated in a number of interviews that although she never knew them personally, she would often time pass them by in the halls making no real effort at communication but the fact they went to the same school, to begin with, adds a bit to their celebrity credibility.
