• Lady Gaga drops her p-p-p-poker face to reveal a little bit about Stefani Germanotta in Emily Herbert's LADY GAGA: BEHIND THE FAME. Going by her stage name Lady Gaga, Germanotta burst onto the pop music scene with the release of her debut album FAME in 2008. And she shot straight to the top of the charts. Her wild, flamboyant outfits and proclamations about how her life is always a performance helped fan the flame, and she soon was working with the biggest names in the business like Beyonce. Herbert gets the inside scoop on how the lady achieved the fame that she has, from her early days performing in New York bars and writing songs for Britney Spears and the Pussycat Dolls to her wildly successful and over-the-top 2009 Fame Ball tour in this colorful, illustrated volume.
• In little over a year Lady Gaga has rocketed from struggling as a performer in New York to the glamorous life of a worldwide phenomenon. From her outrageous outfits to elaborate live shows and out-spoken politics, her life is one grand performance. In Lady Gaga: Behind the Fame, Emily Herbert goes behind the costumes and the gossip to find out how Stefani Germanotta, the self-confessed "weird-girl" in school transformed herself into the most talked about pop figure of the new decade.
  
  Well-researched and filled with color photos documenting Gaga from her gogo dancer days to the release of her second album, The Fame Monster, Lady Gaga is an essential source for anyone wanting to get the behind the scenes scoop on this fascinating performer.
