Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta (born March 28, 1986), who performs under the stage name Lady Gaga, is a singer, songwriter, musician and actress from New York City, New York, United States.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given her flair for grand gestures, Lady Gaga has deep roots in drama. Gaga played piano as a child and pursued musical theater in high school, regularly auditioning for New York-based television shows, notably landing a background role for a 2001 episode of The Sopranos.

Perhaps unsurprisingly given her flair for grand gestures, Lady Gaga has deep roots in drama. Gaga played piano as a child and pursued musical theater in high school, regularly auditioning for New York-based television shows, notably landing a background role for a 2001 episode of The Sopranos. At the age of 17 she enrolled at New York University's Tisch School of the Arts in their Collaborative Arts Project 21. As she studied, she continued to eke her way into show biz, winding up with an appearance on MTV's short-lived post-Punk'd reality show Boiling Points in 2005. Not long afterward, she left school so she could concentrate on her music, fronting a band called Stefani Germanotta Band, which released an EP in January 2006 titled "Red and Blue" titled prior to splitting. Germanotta then teamed with producer Rob Fusari, a collaboration that produced not only her stage name Lady Gaga, but recordings that led to her signing with Def Jam in the fall of 2006.
Her association with Def Jam was short-lived: the label dropped her early in 2007. Gaga rebounded by working with performance artist Lady Starlight, the two developing the Lady Gaga & the Starlight Revue, a tongue-in-cheek neo-burlesque act that gained positive press and proved to be her last stop before signing with Interscope later in 2007. While at Interscope she created a bond with Akon, who convinced Interscope head Jimmy Iovine to have her co-sign with his Kon Live imprint, and Gaga began working with producer and songwriter RedOne, a union that led to the songs that would bring her fame: "Just Dance (featuring Colby O'Donis)", "Poker Face", "LoveGame"... These songs formed the foundation of The Fame, the debut album that appeared in August 2008.
Initially, Lady Gaga had greater success in Europe, thanks in large part to the Colby O'Donis collaboration "Just Dance", which earned club play in the U.S. and chart placement in other territories. Gaga's march toward the top of the American chart was slow but "Just Dance" reached the peak position in January 2009, followed swiftly by "Poker Face," the single that firmly pushed her into the mainstream, its popularity growing so large it often functioned as a punch line on TV in addition to winning a Grammy for Best Dance Recording. Promotional singles "Beautiful, Dirty, Rich", "Vanity" and the Space Cowboy-assisted festive cut "Christmas Tree" also helped her gain a fanbase. And whilst third single "Eh Eh (Nothing Else I Can Say)" was only successful in Oceania and select European countries, "LoveGame" and "Paparazzi" appeared as chart-topping singles around the world before Gaga released "The Fame Monster" in late November of 2009. The mini-LP, available separately and as a package with The Fame, contained the single "Bad Romance," whose popularity soon rivaled "Poker Face" and helped kick-start a stellar year for Gaga in 2010. That year, the hit singles "Bad Romance," "Alejandro," and the Beyoncé duet "Telephone," along with the successful Monster Ball Tour, put Lady Gaga front and center with the public as she worked on her sophomore album, announcing its May release on New Year's Day 2011.
The steady march to the summer unveiling of Born This Way was preceded by the release of three singles: "Born This Way," "Judas," and "The Edge of Glory", as well as promotional single "Hair". All of the singles reached the Top Ten, and the empowerment anthem "Born This Way" hit number one soon after its release in February 2011. The accompanying album arrived to mixed reviews, but it eventually reached double-platinum status and produced subsequent hits with the Top Ten "Yoü and I" as well as a Top 40 entry for "Marry the Night." A full remix of the album, naturally called Born This Way: The Remix, appeared at the end of the year, as did a holiday television special called "A Very Gaga Thanksgiving" and an accompanying EP, "A Very Gaga Holiday", which featured her performing some of her acoustic hits as well as some covers.
Gaga continued to promote Born This Way throughout 2012, appearing at various star-studded events and on television programs while continuing her international tour. The tour came to a halt in February of 2013, when she announced that she needed hip surgery to repair a labral tear, broken during her performance of the song "Scheiße". As she was healing, she worked on her third studio album, "ARTPOP". Preceded by the Top Ten single "Applause", the Top 15 follow-up "Do What U Want" (the latter a duet with R&B singer R. Kelly) and promotional singles "Venus" and "Dope", "ARTPOP" was released in early November 2013. The album explored familiar themes of fame, love, and empowerment. It debuted at number one in several countries, including the U.S.
The release of Artpop coincided with an announcement that Gaga had parted company with Troy Carter, her manager of five years. Then, shortly after she embarked on the ArtRave tour in May 2014, it was revealed that Bobby Campbell -- her new manager -- had signed them both up to Artist Nation, the artist management division of Live Nation Entertainment. That same year, Gaga worked in collaboration with fellow New Yorker Tony Bennett on an album of jazz standards titled "Cheek to Cheek", which was issued in September. The album provided a jolt to Gaga's career. It debuted at number one on Billboard's Top 200 and earned the Grammy Award for Best Traditional Pop Album, its success opening the door to other snazzy showbiz gigs. First, she sang a tribute to The Sound of Music at the 2015 Academy Awards and, a year later, she was nominated for a Best Original Song Oscar for "Til It Happens to You," the tune she co-wrote with Diane Warren for the documentary "The Hunting Ground". Gaga was also cast as a lead in the 2015-2016 season of American Horror Story, winning a Golden Globe for her portrayal of Elizabeth.
She returned with new music on 2016's "Joanne", which was inspired by her late aunt of the same name. Drawing on glam rock, disco, and folk, as well as dance-pop, the album featured an impressive list of collaborators, including Mark Ronson, Nile Rodgers, Father John Misty, Josh Homme, Florence Welsh, Tame Impala's Kevin Parker, and Beck. Featuring the singles "Perfect Illusion," "Million Reasons" and "Joanne" (as well as promotional single "A-YO"), the album debuted at the top of the Billboard 200 but quickly lost traction on the charts. It wasn't until February of 2017 when the success of her Super Bowl halftime show would set Gaga on the comeback trajectory. In addition to returning The Fame, Born This Way, and Artpop to the charts, the momentum from her performance landed Joanne at number two and "Million Reasons" at number four on the Hot 100. Before embarking on the Joanne World Tour in August 2017, she issued the standalone single "The Cure". The documentary Gaga: Five Foot Two, which partially focused on chronic physical ailments that would eventually cause the cancellation of the final stops of the world tour, was released in September of that same year.
In 2018, Gaga joined the cast of the remake of A Star Is Born and was one of the many high-profile artists featured on Elton John's tribute covers album, Revamp.
Lady Gaga is currently working on her new album, currently nicknamed #LG6. The singer teased she was "pregnant with [the album]" in March 2019, however, nothing has been officially announced yet. The LP is been worked on by producers BloodPop®, Boys Noize, Skrillex, Baseck, Diplo, Mark Ronson and DJ BURNS and is said by Gaga herself to be a "surprise".

So Happy I Could Die
by Lady Gaga
Eh-eh, eh-eh ye-ha, ye-ha
Eh-eh, eh-eh aha-aha
Eh-eh, eh-eh ye-ha, ye-ha
Eh-eh, eh-eh aha-aha
I love that lavender blond
The way she moves the way she walks
I touch myself can't get enough
And in the silence of the night
Through all the tears and all the lies
I touch myself and it's alright
Just give in don't give up baby
Open up your heart and your mind to me
Just know when that glass is empty
That the world is gonna bend
Happy in the club with a bottle of red wine
Stars in our eyes 'cause we're having a good time eh-eh eh-eh
So happy I could die be your best friend
Yeah I'll love you forever
Up in the clouds we'll be higher than ever eh-eh, eh-eh
So happy I could die and it's alright
Eh-eh, eh-eh ye-ha, ye-ha
Eh-eh, eh-eh aha-aha
Eh-eh, eh-eh ye-ha, ye-ha
Eh-eh, eh-eh aha-aha
I am as vain as I allow I do my hair
I gloss my eyes I touch myself all through the night
And when something falls out of place
I take my time I put it back
I touch myself 'til I'm on track
Just give in don't give up baby
Open up your heart and your mind to me
Just know when that glass is empty
That the world is gonna bend
Happy in the club with a bottle of red wine
Stars in our eyes 'cause we're having a good time
So happy I could die be your best friend
Yeah I'll love you forever
Up in the clouds we'll be higher than ever eh-eh, eh-eh
So happy I could die and it's alright
So happy I could die and it's alright
So happy I could die and it's alright
Eh-eh, eh-eh ye-ha, ye-ha
Eh-eh, eh-eh aha-aha
Eh-eh, eh-eh ye-ha, ye-ha
Eh-eh, eh-eh aha-aha
Happy in the club with a bottle of red wine
Stars in our eyes 'cause we're having a good time
So happy I could die be your best friend
Yeah I'll love you forever
Up in the clouds we'll be higher than ever eh-eh, eh-eh
So happy I could die and it's alright
Happy in the club with a bottle of red wine
Stars in our eyes 'cause we're having a good time
So happy I could die be your best friend
Yeah I'll love you forever
Up in the clouds we'll be higher than ever eh-eh, eh-eh
So happy I could die and it's alright
