Lady Gaga.

Today is one of my favorite artist birthday, Lady Gaga. Now, I know what your thinking... why in the word do you admire Lady Gaga? She is a complete freak! Which, I will not argue with. But that is exactly it, Lady Gaga is different.

What interest me the most about Lady Gaga, is that she does things that most of us are too scared to even think about. I highly doubt, a majority of Americans have enough courage to get on stage wearing a bubble outfit, or hair shaped like a bow in front of millions of people? Lady Gaga isn't afraid one bit to be herself.

If you look at most of the popular artist today, they are all the same! They all sing about the same things, dress the same way, and use the same styles of music. And then there is Lady Gaga. She's different and she's proud of it! She is not only a singer, but an actual artist. That is not something you find everyday. People tend to get so caught up, in worrying about what others think and fitting this idea society has set as "normal", we forget to be ourselves! And in reality, the question that bugs me the most... WHAT IS NORMAL!

Lady Gaga uses those creative brain cells that God gave her and she uses ALL of them! Even if sometimes, we wish she wouldn't, and I'm sure God isn't always proud of her... but she doesn't give a care in the world what people think! Most of us, can't do that!

Of course, Lady Gaga has her many downfalls. But doesn't everyone? I mean, I wouldn't let my children listen to her or dress like her? Heck! I wouldn't even let myself act like Lady Gaga. But for the most part, she's differently making an impression on people! I dare you, tomorrow when your sitting around the lunch table at Janzow (or where ever you get your gross school food), ask around... see how many people know who Lady Gaga is. I bet more then half of the people around you (unless they live under a rock or in Nebraska.. JustKIDDING) know who Lady Gaga is! Now, ask them how many of them have heard of your Grandmother?... Unless your Grandmother is Brittany Spears... I highly doubt you'll get the same response!

Happy Birthday Lady Gaga!
