Lady GaGa is a theatrical dance-pop singer/songwriter/pianist who created a buzz for herself in the New York underground before making her major-label debut with Interscope Records in 2008. Influenced 由 flamboyant glam rockers such as David Bowie and Queen, as well as '80s dance-pop like 麦当娜 and Michael Jackson, Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta grew up in Manhattan, where she attended private school at the Convent of the Sacred 心 and later studied at New York University's Tisch School of the Arts. At age 20 she began working as a songwriter for Interscope Records, where she penned songs for pop acts such as the Pussycat Dolls. She mounted a solo career several years later, releasing her chart-topping debut single, "Just Dance," in early 2008. Her debut album, The Fame, was issued in the United States later that year, and its Grammy-nominated success paved the way for a U.K. release in early 2009. ~ Jason Birchmeier, All 音乐 Guide
