Lady Gaga has become one of the most talked about musical performers in the charts today. With an outrageous line in costumes, as well as a talent for stealing the limelight, the New-York born performer has become one of the most recognizable names in the pop world today.

She was born in 1986, with her real name being Stefani Joanne Germanotta. Her debut album ‘The Fame’ was released in 2008, paving the way for her the massive popularity she now enjoys.

Many have compared her to Madonna, and it is easy to see where the comparisons come from. Both have Italian-American heritage and were raised in Roman Catholic families. The older singer’s provocative costumes and predilection for causing outrage are certainly points of comparison between the two performers.

But it is perhaps in rock that we find most of the performer’s actual influence. The late Freddie Mercury, the former lead singer of Queen, had a flamboyance and attention-seeking charisma that New Yorker clearly finds inspiring. After all, she took her name from the title of the Queen song ‘Radio Gaga’. The star has also been open in her support of gay rights.

One bizarre tribute that the singer has inspired is the Lady Gaga Strawberry Video Artshow. This online video states that it is representing the singer in the form of a strawberry, and presents the strawberry in a couple of weird positions. Although of no objective artistic value whatsoever, it shows the kind of weird behaviour that the performer can inspire.

Food has been used by the star herself in some of her costumes, and she appeared for one event in an outfit manufactured from meat. Her own creative team, which she terms her ‘Haus’, is behind many of the concepts and ideas which shape the flamboyant designs of the outfits worn by the star.

Lady Gaga may be the subject of silly internet strawberry art projects, but she is also a massive commercial powerhouse when it comes to the music industry.

Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta is a singer, songwriter and the subject of many art projects. Watch the Lady Gaga strawberry art video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmbWJJ6wf3Q now.. This article, Lady Gaga: An Invitation To Weirdness is available for free reprint.
