Gaga's five succeeding studio albums all debuted atop the US Billboard 200. Her second full-length album, Born This Way (2011), explored electronic rock and techno-pop and sold more than one million copies in its first week. The title track became the fastest-selling song on the iTunes Store, with over one million downloads in less than a week. Following her EDM-influenced third album, Artpop (2013), and its lead single "Applause", Gaga released the jazz album Cheek to Cheek (2014) with Tony Bennett, and the soft rock album Joanne (2016). She ventured into acting, winning awards for her leading roles in the miniseries American Horror Story: Hotel (2015–2016) and the musical film A Star Is Born (2018). Her contributions to the latter's soundtrack, which spawned the chart-topping single "Shallow", made her the first woman to win an Academy Award, BAFTA Award, Golden Globe Award and Grammy Award in one year. Gaga returned to dance-pop with her sixth studio album, Chromatica (2020), which yielded the number-one single "Rain on Me". She followed this with her second collaborative album with Bennett, Love for Sale, and a starring role in the biopic House of Gucci, both in 2021.
Having sold an estimated 170 million records, Gaga is one of the world's best-selling music artists and the only female artist to achieve four singles that each sold at least 10 million copies globally. Her accolades include 13 Grammy Awards, two Golden Globe Awards, 18 MTV Video Music Awards, awards from the Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Council of Fashion Designers of America, and recognition as Billboard's Artist of the Year (2010) and Woman of the Year (2015). She has also been included in several Forbes' power rankings and ranked fourth on VH1's Greatest Women in Music (2012). Time magazine named her one of the 100 most influential people in the world in 2010 and 2019 and placed her on their All-Time 100 Fashion Icons list. Her philanthropy and activism focus on mental health awareness and LGBTQ+ rights; she has her own non-profit organization, the Born This Way Foundation, which supports the wellness of young people. Gaga's business ventures include Haus Labs, a vegan cosmetics brand launched in 2019.

But I'll keep looking, I'll keep looking for Wonderland
My name isn't Alice
But I'll keep looking, I'll keep looking for Wonderland, Wonderland

In Lady Gaga's song "Alice," which is featured on the deluxe edition of her sixth studio album "Chromatica," the singer creates a parallel between herself and the fictional character from Lewis Carroll's "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland." Gaga sings, "My name isn't Alice, but I'll keep looking for Wonderland," expressing her desire to escape reality and find a better, more surreal world. Throughout the song, she seems to be struggling with her inner demons and the darkness within her mind, as indicated by lines such as "Where's my body? I'm stuck in my mind." The lyrics suggest that she is tired of screaming and crying out for help, but she is determined to find her way out of her own mental labyrinth.
The chorus of the song repeatedly begs to be taken to Wonderland, which could represent a mental state of freedom, creativity and happiness or anything else that she yearns for. The song has a steady beat accompanied by synths and electronic flourishes that are characteristic of Gaga's dance-pop style. The lyrics are filled with imagery that depicts the dreamy and fantastical world of Wonderland, such as "Maestro, play me your symphony, I will listen to anything," which conjures up thoughts of a fantastical orchestra. Gaga's vocals paint the image of a person who is looking to go beyond their own reality and find a better, more magical place.
