Lady Gaga Article


Lady Gaga is a star like no other stars today. At her concert at Radio City Music Hall, which was sold out, she delighted her many loving fans.  Her performances always give her fans something spectacular to see. With her flashy stage, interesting costumes and catchy songs Lady Gaga has sold out many concerts and has won a lot of awards, such as a Grammy. Her musical talent isn’t just limited to just singing, she writes her songs, and can also play the piano very well and uses it to accompany some of her songs. She is so talented on her piano that she has been called a female Elton John when performing her song “Speechless”. During her concerts, her stage is designed to look out of this world and extremely complicated to her viewers. As do her many crazy outfits that she always loves to wear.

The author of this article does a good job of describing Lady Gaga and her unique way of performing. He describes everything from her music to the sometimes crazy way she dresses. It is really a good review because he focuses on all the different aspects of her career. For example, he talks about one of her hit songs “Poker Face” and her charity to the Haiti relief. He even mentions a comment from Lady Gaga when she was asked why she puts so much money into her shows she replied, “Because my fans are sexy”(Pareles 19). There is so much more to Lady Gaga than just her music and the author captured that wonderfully.

When people read this article, some may be very interested in it because they are the targeted audience for the article and others may not be as interested. The targeted audience would mostly be fans of the singer Lady Gaga, but any music lover may enjoy reading it as well. I believe that the targeted audience would be under the age of 50 and interested in pop music. The author focused on the things that would appeal to the fans of Lady Gaga, like her unique performance style and songs.
