Lady Gaga’s Early Life

Lady Gaga (real name  Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta) was born on 28th March 1986 in Younkers, New York. She was into music from an early age, getting her hands on the piano when she was as little as 4.

Gaga got accepted in the Juilliard School in Manhattan but chose to study in a private Catholic school instead. She wrote her first piano ballad at the age of 13 and her first performance was in a New York nightclub at the age of 14.

Gaga got an opportunity to enroll in New York University’s Tisch School of Arts, where she studied music and honed her songwriting skills. However, itching for creative inspiration, she withdrew from the prestigious school.

Lady Gaga’s Career

In 2005, Gaga was signed by Def Jam Records but only to be dropped just months later. Failing to make a mark at her first big opportunity, Gaga had to make a shift at clubs on New York City’s Lower East Side. There, she got an opportunity to collaborate with several rock bands and also, to begin her experiment with fashion. At around 2007, when she was working at Interscope Records, writing songs for artists like Britney Spears and Pussycat Dolls, she caught the attention of R&B singer Akon. Akon signed her to his label and Gaga got a chance to record her debut album, The Fame. The album was a success, not just in the United States.
