While the bangs just scream Ms. Bialik, there aint much else going on here between the two. If you ask me, The Divine Ms. Gaga is more a mash up of Gwen Stefani, Madonna, and Cyndi Lauper, for our generation. She grew up in Manhattan and hung out with all the downtown Lower East Siders and you can tell. However instead of being a massive tool/poseur like most of those zombies that populate places like Fat Baby and Libation, Gaga just oozes real style and class, even when purring lyrics like "and were all getting hosed tonight." Her fantastic first single is called "Just Dance" and really, that all it makes you want to do. That, and find a way to become part of Gaga's entourage before she hits the statosphere. Herewith, my top 5 reasons why je adore Lady Gaga:
1. She carries a crystal scepter that lights up
2. She clearly likes a good party and to party (some lyrics in Just Dance include "I've had a little bit too much" "where are my keys? I've lost my phone" and "What's the name of this club? I can't remember but it's alright")
3. She got her breakthrough the hard way - busting her ass doing shows in nasty clubs and tirelessly self promoting herself
4. She has the fiercest fashion sense ever. She says when writing her songs she imagines what she'll be wearing when performing them. Plus her two iconic features - dramatic bangs and outrageous sunglasses are amazing
5. She's totally queer (bisexual) and has already played on Fire Island, The Miss Universe Pageant, and So You Think You Can Dance. How gay is that??
6. The first 13 seconds of her music video are the undeniable the most entertaining and unique piece of media I've seen this year.
7. She reminds me of everything I love about New York
I predict she will be a MAJOR player in the music and fashion scene. Her full album Fame drops in October. . .much more to come on this dame.
