And just in case that isn't enough, take a look at Samantha Maloney's All Access Interview with Lady Gaga. Here she explains how her monster-smash single, "Just Dance", took her from dive bars to Lollapalooza:
Between her dance-pop ditty "Just Dance," her intriguing attitude and her seeming love of shoulder pads, a lot of people have been confused by what, exactly, Lady GaGa is all about.
Luckily, she's made a short experimental film that is bound to confuse you even more! ;)
LADY GAGA on "So You Think You Can Dance," plus album cover
Damn... Interscope is really pushing her!
Just a couple weeks ago she performed at the Miss Universe Pageant, no Lady Gaga scores another high-profile TV gig... on the Fox reality hit, "So You Think You Can Dance."
Amazing performance, though! The wail at the end is suh-weet!
It's amazing to see a dance artist get this kind of exposure thanks to mainstream label support. Must be soooo frustrating for artists who have been working for years to bring their club hits mainstream. Still, if one succeeds, whatever the means... at least it may open the door for more.
A return to the '90s perhaps? (We should be so lucky ;) )
Oh, and here's the cover art for Lady Gaga's full length debut album, The Fame, dropping this fall. And if you haven't had your fill of Gaga related reality, check out her regularly updated web-isodes following her road to (duh) "the fame."
Last week, our MAY '08 DIVA OF THE MONTH, Lady GaGa, performed live at the Miss Universe 2008 pageant! She kicked off the swimsuit competition with her club hit, "Just Dance." Check it out (and by the way, watch the whole thing... she interrupts the catwalk struts with her song a few times ;)):
Love the "Golden Girl" esque shoulder pads, girl. Love 'em ;)
Haha. Seriously, though, great to see a dance act getting some serious TV airtime! Of course, probably no coincidence that GaGa is signed to a major label like Interscope. (As Meja would say, "It's all about the money, it's all about the dim-dim-diddy-dum-dum...")
Still, GaGa's pretty freaking cool (hence her DIVA status), and if this means dance-pop might have a chance to ingratiating itself on to the public again (hello 1990s!) we're all for it.
