Lady Gaga & David Bowie

Lady Gaga on David Bowie "[He's] an icon in art," At age 4 Lady Gaga learned piano by ear, by age 13, she had written her first piano ballad. At 14, she played open mic nights at clubs such as New York’s the Bitter End and at the age of 17 was one of 20 kids in the world to get early admission to Tisch School of the Arts at NYU. Here is my list of reasons why I like her. 1. Star Wars reference in her video. (Ingredients in recipe)

2. She used the Pussy Wagon from Kill Bill in her film clip for Telephone and is being considered to be in Quentin Tarantino's next movie.

3. She can wear coke cans in her hair, cigarette sunglasses and be drenched in blood without looking dumb.

4. She acknowledges the fact that her lyrics are shallow and inferior to that of artists such as Bowie. 5. She doesn't lip sync live. 6. She supports gay rights, something not many artists support to the extent she does. 7. Claims she was born in the wrong era and said "I'm quite sure that if it were 1968 I may not be the Lady GaGa that I am today. I might be arguing with Yoko Ono and trying to win John Lennon's heart and chasing The Beatles in a bus on LSD, hoping that one of them hands me a microphone one day."

8. She took her name from a Queen song.

9. She idolises David Bowie.

Clearly Bowie is God but I guess this was my attempt to show Lady Gaga in a different light. Maybe not but I think everyone should watch her acoustic version of Poker Face for AOL. That's what originally got me interested in her.
