Lady Gaga: Will her stardom last?


Her music makes many want to "Just Dance", her wardrobe causes eyes widen, and her risky performances sometimes make audiences go "Huh?"


Without a doubt, Lady Gaga is considered to be one of today's pop icons. But will she go down in history for having hits such as "Poker Face"? Or will her fame dim as many other stars do?

Many compare Lady Gaga to big celebrities such as David Bowie, Madonna, or Queen because of her eccentric fashion sense, including crazy hair, big makeup, and little or no clothing. In fact, Lady Gaga even got her stage name "Gaga" from the Queen song "Radio Ga Ga"; "Lady" because she admired the way that Queen always portrayed themselves as royalty.

Putting fashion aside, Lady Gaga is notorious for having artsy and very different performances. When she is up at stage she does not simply stand there with a microphone in her hand. She acts out her music and doesn't seem to care how graphic she gets. In past performances she has made out with fellow dancers on stage, stripped down to her panties, and covered herself with red paint that resembled her blood.

Lady Gaga isn't your average dresser or performer, but what how good of a songwriter is she? Because after all, a huge part of being a music artist is not just clothing or dance moves but, duh, music.

This link leads to a website that contains all of her song lyrics. You be the judge. Do lines such as: "Rah-rah-ah-ah-ah-ah Roma-roma-mamaa Ga-ga-ooh-la-la Want your bad romance" from her song "Bad Romance" or "I'm your biggest fan, I'll follow you until you love me Papa, paparazzi" from "Paparazzi" deserve Grammys? Will they be remembered in the next generation and be played on radio stations years from now?

Who knows the mystery behind Lady Gaga... Many say her songs are trash, while others claim that they are truly addictive. Only time can tell on whether this new pop diva will live on.
