There was some discussion about the correct spelling here [1], and the title has been redirected to "Gaga". However, the artist's own website uses both spellings, "GaGa" [2] and "Gaga" [3], though her record label, Interscope Records, uses "Gaga" [4]. So, could someone please write something like "Lady Gaga [5] (also: Lady GaGa [6]) is an..." in the beginning of the first paragraph? -- Frous ( talk) 22:41, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

,Although there is strong accusations about her gender it is true she is and always has been a woman ,should the article not cover the rumours and discussion about her gender? Many people claim her to be a post op transexual or a transvestite, especially here in the UK. I have no idea about what her actual Gender is or isn't but if someone could make a mature mention of this I think it would be helpful. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.80.225.2 ( talk) 17:20, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
perhaps someone needs to clarify the facts then. Has she ever referred to herself as a female? is the 'lady' part of her name a knowing wink to her gender difficulties?
Which is it? 20st or 28th of March?...

I'm this video from her March 27th concert in Ottawa, they sing happy birthday and she says its her last night being 22 so I think between both of these videos, there is enough to correct her birthday in the article. Per WP:SELFPUB, her own word is more reliable than even the most reliable source. You cannot deny what she says because it's her life and she obviously knows more about it than anyone else. Grk1011/Stephen ( talk) 18:35, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
I can't believe someone is overblowing this birthday thing? Are they doing it for a laugh?!. HER BIRTHDAY is MARCH 28th. The person in the video is obviously her... and wikipedia cites ALLMUSIC.COM? How the hell is that more reliable then that video? This evdience is an audio-visual source from Lady Gaga's mouth. -- Franch ( talk) 21:32, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
Okay, I understand. It seems this Wikipedia article likes to verify things based on technicalities rather than common sense. This is kind of the reason why I left Wikipedia two years ago... superfluously pedantic. II'll just leave it to someone else who will dig up the source eventually. -- Franch ( talk) 13:07, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
I was talking about this particular article. I understand about the guidelines pertaining to other subjects (in most circumstances), but Lady Gaga has confirmed her birth date through audio-visual media that just happens to be on Youtube. People are saying "youtube is not a source", youtube is not the matter, the evidence is the content. There are articles that I have witnessed in the past where details of a subject were accepted through audio-visual evidence that happened to be posted via sites like Youtube etc. Wikipedia's Verifiability article states that electronic media 'can be used'.
The technicality? It can only come from a "reliable" source despite the fact the source deemed "reliable" here cites her fake birth date, March 20 is a music review site which self-admittingly asks people to submit corrections from errors they make. The content clearly displays Lady Gaga (by common sense one can discern that it is not an imposter) saying "...and actually March 28th is my birthday" (which is probably a subtle reference to the mistake erred by Wikipedia). But whatever, enough of this dramarama. I'm out of here without my two cents. --

During the concert in Ottawa on March 27, 2009, as midnight struck fans started singing "Happy Birthday" to Gaga. She was singing the song "Future Love" on the piano and seemed overwhelmed with emotion. She got up to the crowd and said, "This show is not for me,.[..].This show is for all of you guys. I really want you to have fun and meet each other and have the time of your life."[7] Lady Gaga's birthday IS MARCH 28!!! Why do people keep denying it?! It says on Perez Hilton's website, her fans sang her "Happy Birthday" on March 28, and Lady Gaga said so herself on YouTube! Why won't you change her birth-date already?! Cinnamontl ( talk) 04:21, 12 April 2009 (UTC) Cinnamontl
Seriously people... those were some lame arguments! I posted a video, clearly different from the one cited in the edits, and clearly it was her and you start all of this for what? Youtube? Good thing that after 10 edits and reverts the date was changed. Em27 ( talk) 19:06, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
Recently I have come across many interviews etc with Lady Gaga where she has expressed her love for the British accent, men and culture in general. I believe this would be an important addition to the article as she herself has stated that English singer Amy winehouse paved the way fro her success, and she has been inspired by Queen and David Bowie, she has also called her British fans cool and innovative in the way they think about pop music and culture, a possbible entry such as the one below in my opinion will be a good addition to the article (although I understand if some of it was to be reworded or shortened down):

I don't know if any of you are aware but each week Gaga puts an episode online "Transmission Gagavision" and it outlines what she got up to that week. Should it be included. I know the answer will be "no" but i'm asking just incase someone agrees.
Child Funk ( talk) 08:00, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
I'm no good at judging as to what is encyclopedic and what is not. I'd suggest that you go onto youtube and watch some episodes as you have a better knowledge in comparisson to myself.

okay okay so i know this has been the biggest issue of the article and FINALLY we have agreed she is Lady Gaga and sometimes she spells it Gaga and sometimes she spells it GaGa, BUT i think that "The latter part of the name is variably spelled either GaGa[10] or Gaga." is quite possibly the worst way it could be said. keep it simple stupid!--oRange 22:59, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

I think her EP should be put in. She beatboxes and does a capella songs. It's a big step for an artist to do something like that. I think it is notable because it says it on her website www.ladygaga.com and on her record label's website. Why isn't it?-- RCNARANJA 19:58, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

The article should also say how she isn't a transsexual, I know its not supposed to be gossip but someone needs to clear up the rumors, there are pictures of her on PerezHilton.com of when she was younger. Also it should address her sexuality, in an interview with Fab Magazine she stated she was "bi" but then took it back because people weren't open to it she was also seen kissing a girl in the LoveGame music video. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.91.223.175 ( talk) 19:27, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

The article needs to be updated Gaga is everywhere now-a-days and the pictures need to change she has gotten a new look since those long extensions, her Fashion needs to be extended because a lot of people have been seen sporting her "look" and a lot of fashion magazines have put attention to it , and she has made several public appearances in magazines, television, etc. that this article just touches on instead of going into moderate detail.

The "quote" where Lady GaGa talks about the meaning of Poker Face is incorrect. In the interview she says, "The song 'Poker face,' it's about 'poker facing' with your sexuality. When I was making love to my old boyfriend, I used to think about women sometimes." Perhaps it would be better to use a more reliable article as a reference, not one that cant spell "fantasizing" correctly (which wasn't even said in the first place.

I am seeking to input some quotes by Lady Gaga into the article however, I am still unsure as to how they shall be formatted.
The information in which I wish to intergrate into the article is from
this source!
The quotes are basically about what she thinks of herself as an artist, writing music and how she got to where she is today.
I do not wish to include all of them but mostly the ones of which are most appealing and biographically appropriate!

According to Wikipedia:LINKSTOAVOID, official Myspace pages are allowed as external links. Before you try to tell me that bullet number 10 says no Myspace, etc, please note the bolded sentence before the numbered list which reads "Except for a link to an official page of the article's subject—and not prohibited by restrictions on linking—one should avoid:". Therefore bullet number 10 excluding Myspace does not apply since it is official. It is an exception. Grk1011/Stephen ( talk) 04:06, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
(Outdent)Is the Myspace link really adding anything else? Any more knowledge? No, its not. Atleast official sites or record company pages adds to the extra knowledge, not social networking sites. Its the similar thing with fansites also. Filled with unnecessary things. Donot turn this page to a paper encyclopedia. --Legolas (talk2me) 04:37, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
[7] since her MySpace is linked officially on her website for people to click and check out I don't see what the big deal about it is she obviously doesn't mind people accessing it, it has no Copyright violations that I know of, the only way I'd see it not being added would be if it was set to private which it isn't.

"Gaga has been influenced by glam rockers such as David Bowie and Queen as well as '80s pop singers such as Madonna, Morrissey and Michael Jackson." - Bowie and Queen are explained in more detail and sourced further down in the article, but the last three are not mentioned or sourced anywhere that I can find. Anyone know where these three names came from and if their influence can be sourced/verified from some WP:RS and maybe expanded/explained? Siawase ( talk) 12:00, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
(Outdent)I don't see any problem in including allmusic. The concern for the endless list will be serious when every influnce is backed up by a RS. But at present I see David Bowie, Queen and Madge properly cited (if we use allmusic) hence no problem in including three influences. --Legolas (talk2me) 05:25, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
Well how about David Bowie, Queen, MJ, Madonna and Andy Warhol (pop culture)--already cited on artcile btw. Cloverfield Monsta ( talk) 08:09, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
On their artist page [9] Rolling Stone mentions Madonna, Queen and Bowie, along with a few other names not mentioned by other sources. They do not include Michael Jackson. If we wanted to, rather than build a laundry list of every name mentioned, we could use several sources to exclude names, by only including those mentioned in multiple reliable sources.

The Fame peaked at number one in Austria, Canada and Ireland and four in Australia.[29][30] Afterward "Haus of Gaga" turned their focus further upon the American market with Gaga going on her first ever concert tour with fellow Interscope pop group, the reformed New Kids on the Block. Gaga started her stint with New Kids on the Block in Los Angeles on October 8, and continued through the end of November.[31] She appeared as a featured guest on the song "Big Girl Now" from their new album, The Block.[32] In late October, Gaga released The Fame in the US, where it debuted at number seventeen on the Billboard 200, with first week sales of 24,000 units,[33] and has thus far peaked at number four.[34] On December 5, 2008, Gaga was added to the BBC Sound of 2009 longlist, which features the best rising music stars.[35] Gaga was confirmed as the support act for Pussycat Dolls on their Europe and Oceania arena dates from January until May 2009. The tour started in Aberdeen, Scotland on January 18, and ends in Perth, Australia on May 30.[36]

I'm this video from her March 27th concert in Ottawa, they sing happy birthday and she says its her last night being 22 so I think between both of these videos, there is enough to correct her birthday in the article. Per WP:SELFPUB, her own word is more reliable than even the most reliable source. You cannot deny what she says because it's her life and she obviously knows more about it than anyone else. Grk1011/Stephen ( talk) 18:35, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
I can't believe someone is overblowing this birthday thing? Are they doing it for a laugh?!. HER BIRTHDAY is MARCH 28th. The person in the video is obviously her... and wikipedia cites ALLMUSIC.COM? How the hell is that more reliable then that video? This evdience is an audio-visual source from Lady Gaga's mouth. -- Franch ( talk) 21:32, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
Okay, I understand. It seems this Wikipedia article likes to verify things based on technicalities rather than common sense. This is kind of the reason why I left Wikipedia two years ago... superfluously pedantic. II'll just leave it to someone else who will dig up the source eventually. -- Franch ( talk) 13:07, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
I was talking about this particular article. I understand about the guidelines pertaining to other subjects (in most circumstances), but Lady Gaga has confirmed her birth date through audio-visual media that just happens to be on Youtube. People are saying "youtube is not a source", youtube is not the matter, the evidence is the content. There are articles that I have witnessed in the past where details of a subject were accepted through audio-visual evidence that happened to be posted via sites like Youtube etc. Wikipedia's Verifiability article states that electronic media 'can be used'.
The technicality? It can only come from a "reliable" source despite the fact the source deemed "reliable" here cites her fake birth date, March 20 is a music review site which self-admittingly asks people to submit corrections from errors they make. The content clearly displays Lady Gaga (by common sense one can discern that it is not an imposter) saying "...and actually March 28th is my birthday" (which is probably a subtle reference to the mistake erred by Wikipedia). But whatever, enough of this dramarama. I'm out of here without my two cents. --

During the concert in Ottawa on March 27, 2009, as midnight struck fans started singing "Happy Birthday" to Gaga. She was singing the song "Future Love" on the piano and seemed overwhelmed with emotion. She got up to the crowd and said, "This show is not for me,.[..].This show is for all of you guys. I really want you to have fun and meet each other and have the time of your life."[7] Lady Gaga's birthday IS MARCH 28!!! Why do people keep denying it?! It says on Perez Hilton's website, her fans sang her "Happy Birthday" on March 28, and Lady Gaga said so herself on YouTube! Why won't you change her birth-date already?!

Seriously people... those were some lame arguments! I posted a video, clearly different from the one cited in the edits, and clearly it was her and you start all of this for what? Youtube? Good thing that after 10 edits and reverts the date was changed. Em27 ( talk) 19:06, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
Recently I have come across many interviews etc with Lady Gaga where she has expressed her love for the British accent, men and culture in general. I believe this would be an important addition to the article as she herself has stated that English singer Amy winehouse paved the way fro her success, and she has been inspired by Queen and David Bowie, she has also called her British fans cool and innovative in the way they think about pop music and culture, a possbible entry such as the one below in my opinion will be a good addition to the article (although I understand if some of it was to be reworded or shortened down):

I have been looking at some music featured articles on WP and have found that a tour or concert section is on the main article, should it be added??? Tours/Concerts
As supporting- PCD NKOTB
As Headliner-
The Fame Ball Tour Cloverfield Monsta ( talk) 05:50, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
An audio sample should go on the article (WP:Music featured articles) E.G. Poker Face her most successful song. Cloverfield Monsta ( talk) 06:04, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
I think it is time to check all references on this page to make sure they notable, reliable, changed or incorrect. Cloverfield Monsta ( talk) 06:13, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
I think at this stage we should push for GA. Most of the info relevant to this album is already on the article. Any remaining single release from The Fame will likely be smaller hits (not likely to have a big effect on this article). — R 2 06:49, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
I have formatted the article, so pics. are on the left and media(music samples) on the right. Do you think it should be changed, because the info. box is on the right(has a pic) by the media. Cloverfield Monsta ( talk) 02:30, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

Does anyone think there should be a bit in the Public Image and Media section about certain objects that she uses to promote certain things, for example, her disco stick, the tv glasses that say "Pop Music will never be low brow", and more recently a purple tea cup whilst she's been in the UK.
On the Gwen Stefani page it mentions certain things she used to promote herself during the Sweet Escape era, such as the "G" necklace. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.242.24.189 ( talk) 10:40, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
Should we at least include Lady Starlight in Lady Gaga's associated acts? On Lady Starlight's page, it says that her associated act is Lady Gaga. Keithf2008 ( talk) 17:00, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
There should be neutral third party sources covering these events. I believe citing ebay as a source is a conflict of interest as they have a vested interest in promoting the artist. Neutral sources may not consider her a philanthropist for a singular donation. The Bookkeeper (of the Occult) 01:29, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
The pic. is also in the poker face article (GA status) should it be taken off as well or can it be re-added to the article
I put a media section up as well, should this be added. Cloverfield Monsta ( talk) 01:34, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
I want to know what Cherry Cherry Boom Boom means is it like her slogan or what I think someone should inculde this in the article. Oh! and I search up 'Lady Gaga Autograph' on google and most websites are talking about how she autographed a mans gentiles should this be included!Just Asking! -- Tori100tcg ( talk) 09:33, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

The "quote" where Lady GaGa talks about the meaning of Poker Face is incorrect. In the interview she says, "The song 'Poker face,' it's about 'poker facing' with your sexuality. When I was making love to my old boyfriend, I used to think about women sometimes." Perhaps it would be better to use a more reliable article as a reference, not one that cant spell "fantasizing" correctly (which wasn't even said in the first place.

Policy states that fair-use images should not replace free images, and at the moment, the current free image is being replaced by a fair-use one, despite messages being left on Mdw2009's talk page asking him not to change the image to a non-free one; in addition, attempts to restore the free image have been reverted as though they were vandalism, which they were not. I'm bringing this here for better input. Thanks. Acalamari 18:41, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
Oops. Ok, I've seen the video and I guess you're right it's her. But I'll be damned if they didn't find a shot that makes her look like she has a 5 o'clock shadow. Deepest apologies.-- Cube lurker ( talk) 23:41, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
In most of her short films, music videos, and other promotions. She advertises Dre Headphones and I think she might have some sort of deal with them but I'm not 100% sure but it's something that should probably be looked into. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.91.223.175 ( talk) 01:13, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
Shouldn't the Haus Danes and whatever kind of watch as well as the headphones be included in the article? —Preceding

"She began her career as a songwriter for some of pop music's biggest stars" - but none of the her songs is mentioned ... -- Tbone ( talk) 03:58, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
I am seeking to input some quotes by Lady Gaga into the article however, I am still unsure as to how they shall be formatted.
The information in which I wish to intergrate into the article is from
this source!
The quotes are basically about what she thinks of herself as an artist, writing music and how she got to where she is today.
I do not wish to include all of them but mostly the ones of which are most appealing and biographically appropriate!

Recently Gaga has been critized for her fashion often mixed sometimes postive and the negative. Here are some sources of negative and are usually about her crazers and no pants. I can get more sources but my question is it worth putting on the article???Sources- http://www.pr-inside.com/lady-gaga-ordered-to-take-august-r1218580.htm and http://www.pr-inside.com/lady-gaga-ordered-to-take-august-r1218580.htm Cloverfield Monsta ( talk) 04:41, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
No offense, but that picture just needs changed, you can't see her face well, and she just doesn't look right. She is an attractive woman, and that picture just doesn't really show her beauty. Can we get a new one? JDC808 ( talk) 04:21, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

Gaga is taking time out due to she has been overworking and almost fall during a show. Is it relvent to this or the fame or fame ball artilce. Source http://earsucker.com/2009/04/30/lady-gaga-given-time-off-to-rest/ Cloverfield Monsta ( talk) 00:05, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
This needs to be included in the article just as in the Pink article where it states in the lead spelled Pink or P!nk. Cloverfield Monsta ( talk) 06:47, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
This has been added numerous times. a source needs to be provided. Thanks Cloverfield Monsta ( talk) 06:49, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
The new pic is not very good. The quality is poor. Please can someone change it. Cloverfield Monsta ( talk) 04:56, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
I think there should be a nice,newer looking picture of Momma Monster.<3 Like the dress she wore(The Peacock Dress)at the 2010 MTV's Video Music Awards
According to Wikipedia:LINKSTOAVOID, official Myspace pages are allowed as external links. Before you try to tell me that bullet number 10 says no Myspace, etc, please note the bolded sentence before the numbered list which reads "Except for a link to an official page of the article's subject—and not prohibited by restrictions on linking—one should avoid:". Therefore bullet number 10 excluding Myspace does not apply since it is official. It is an exception. Grk1011/Stephen ( talk) 04:06, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
(Outdent)Is the Myspace link really adding anything else? Any more knowledge? No, its not. Atleast official sites or record company pages adds to the extra knowledge, not social networking sites. Its the similar thing with fansites also. Filled with unnecessary things. Donot turn this page to a paper encyclopedia. --Legolas (talk2me) 04:37, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
[7] since her MySpace is linked officially on her website for people to click and check out I don't see what the big deal about it is she obviously doesn't mind people accessing it, it has no Copyright violations that I know of, the only way I'd see it not being added would be if it was set to private which it isn't. Afkatk ( talk) 15:46, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
"Gaga has been influenced by glam rockers such as David Bowie and Queen as well as '80s pop singers such as Madonna, Morrissey and Michael Jackson." - Bowie and Queen are explained in more detail and sourced further down in the article, but the last three are not mentioned or sourced anywhere that I can find. Anyone know where these three names came from and if their influence can be sourced/verified from some WP:RS and maybe expanded/explained? Siawase ( talk) 12:00, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
(Outdent)I don't see any problem in including allmusic. The concern for the endless list will be serious when every influnce is backed up by a RS. But at present I see David Bowie, Queen and Madge properly cited (if we use allmusic) hence no problem in including three influences. --Legolas (talk2me) 05:25, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
Well how about David Bowie, Queen, MJ, Madonna and Andy Warhol (pop culture)--already cited on artcile btw. Cloverfield Monsta ( talk) 08:09, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
On their artist page [9] Rolling Stone mentions Madonna, Queen and Bowie, along with a few other names not mentioned by other sources. They do not include Michael Jackson. If we wanted to, rather than build a laundry list of every name mentioned, we could use several sources to exclude names, by only including those mentioned in multiple reliable sources. Siawase ( talk) 14:16, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
This MTV source (+vid) states Gaga is writing a new album (2009 section?) and is going to release 6 songs by the end of this year. Article worthy or WP recentism. http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1611042/20090511/lady_gaga.jhtml Cloverfield Monsta ( talk) 08:13, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
Also, she takes dance lessons from a 14 year-old girl named Stephanie Sanchez from Chicago,Illinois
Her tours including PCD, etc. should be added somewere on this or any Gaga article. Cloverfield Monsta ( talk) 05:59, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
The Fame peaked at number one in Austria, Canada and Ireland and four in Australia.[29][30] Afterward "Haus of Gaga" turned their focus further upon the American market with Gaga going on her first ever concert tour with fellow Interscope pop group, the reformed New Kids on the Block. Gaga started her stint with New Kids on the Block in Los Angeles on October 8, and continued through the end of November.[31] She appeared as a featured guest on the song "Big Girl Now" from their new album, The Block.[32] In late October, Gaga released The Fame in the US, where it debuted at number seventeen on the Billboard 200, with first week sales of 24,000 units,[33] and has thus far peaked at number four.[34] On December 5, 2008, Gaga was added to the BBC Sound of 2009 longlist, which features the best rising music stars.[35] Gaga was confirmed as the support act for Pussycat Dolls on their Europe and Oceania arena dates from January until May 2009. The tour started in Aberdeen, Scotland on January 18, and ends in Perth, Australia on May 30.[36]
