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.

Lady Gaga Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We're c-coming out
Got my flash on, it's true
Need that picture of you
It's so magical
We'd be so fantastical
Leather and jeans
Not sure what it means
But this photo of us
It don't have a price
Ready for those flashing lights
'Cause you know that baby I
I'm your biggest fan
I'll follow you until you love me
Papa-paparazzi
Baby, there's no other superstar
You know that I'll be
Your papa-paparazzi
Promise I'll be kind
But I won't stop until that boy is mine
Baby, you'll be famous
Chase you down until you love me
Papa-paparazzi
I'll be your girl backstage at your show
Velvet ropes and guitars
Yeah 'cause you're my rock star in between the sets
Eyeliner and cigarettes
Shadow is burnt
Yellow dance and we turn
My lashes are dry
Purple teardrops I cry, it don't have a price
Loving you is cherry pie
'Cause you know that baby I
I'm your biggest fan
I'll follow you until you love me

Papa-paparazzi
In Lady Gaga's song Paparazzi, she is singing from the perspective of a crazed stalker who wants to become her love interest's paparazzi. The opening lines reveal the energy and excitement that comes from the crowd following the paparazzi flashes, and the excitement that follows getting the perfect shot of their favorite celebrity, in this case, the object of the singer's affections. Even though she knows the pursuit might be dangerous, the singer is convinced that it is worth it because she loves him.
Throughout the song, there are references to camera flashes, shadows and glamour, which all serve to highlight how the media portrays celebrities. The track has a strong melody and upbeat tempo that make it a perfect song for dancing. The lyrics are quite engaging, and it's hard not to sing along to the infectious chorus, which demonstrates Lady Gaga's flair for catchy hooks. Ultimately, the song shows how the media can be both a blessing and a curse for celebrities.

(Verse 1)
We are the criminals
We're r-running from the law
Let the police light follow... it's real
Need the selfie of us... it's unbelievable
We'd be so infamous
Handcuffs and guns
Arrested developments
Not sure why it happens
But the mug shot of us became official
Ready to change to prison jumpsuits
Cause you know Baby I
(Chorus)
I'm the criminal that you're looking for
Copter-copterazzi
Baby don't put me on the front of the news
Copter-copterazzi
I won't run the light
But the cops are after me
Baby I don't want to go to jail
Copter-copterazzi
(Verse 2)
I'm the suspect riding back of black and white
With handcuffs on my back
Yeah cause I've got busted for intoxicating in the public
Booze and the cocaines
Handcuffs are rough
The guns has bullets
This is really insane
Can't get off thosee handcuffs
Cause you know baby I
(Chorus)
I'm the criminal that you're looking for
Copter-Copterazzi
Baby don't put me on the front of the news
Copter-copterazzi
I won't run the light
But the cops are after me
Baby I don't want to go to jail
Copter-copterazzi
(Bridge)
Real insane
Caught with DUI
Thunk thunk that sound of the car
Don't give me prison years
I'll loose the handcuffs and run away
(Chorus)
I'm the criminal that you're looking for
Copter-copterazzi
Baby don't put me on the front of the news
Copter-copterazzi
I won't run the light
But the cops are after me
Baby I don't want to go to jail
Copter-copterazzi

This is one of the most unique pop songs ever in my opinion. The chorus is dreamy, euphoric, strange. All while the rest of the song is industrial and dark and robotic. So unique. Ugh. Gaga I swear....
