My Favorite Dance & Synthpop Artist

Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta (March 28, 1986), known by her stage name Lady Gaga, is an American singer-songwriter, record producer, activist, businesswoman, fashion designer and actress. Raised in New York City, where she lives, Lady Gaga primarily studied at the Convent of the Sacred Heart and momentarily joined to New York University's Tisch School of the Arts before withdrawing to focus on her musical career. She soon began performing in the rock music scene of Manhattan's Lower East Side.

Musically, Gaga takes influence from numerous musicians from dance-pop singers like Madonna and Michael Jackson to glam rock artists like David Bowie and Queen at the same time as employing the theatrics of artists like Andy Warhol and of her musical theatre roots in performance. "Radio Ga Ga" a Queen(rock band)´s song, inspired her stage name. Madonna who admits that she sees herself reflected in Gaga.

Continually experimenting with new musical ideas and images, Gaga's musical and performance style is the subject of much critics. She professes that she is "liberating" herself by constantly reinventing her sound and image, insisting that she has been drawn to such a practice since her childhood. Vocally, Gaga possesses the range of a contralto and shows "overwhelming expression, instinctive vocal phrasing, reminiscent chest belts and animalistic vocal beats”. Gaga refuse to lip sync, and her range is frequently compared to those of Madonna and Gwen Stefani.

This, its adoption by the style-conscious acts from the New Romantic movement, together with the rise of MTV, led to success for large numbers of British synthpop acts, including Duran Duran and Spandau Ballet, in the United States.
