The World's Greatest Pop Star

I created this persuasive piece to convince people that Lady Gaga is more than meets the eye


Lady gaga is one of the most controversial stars around, but so many people dislike her for the things she does, what she wears, or even what she believes in, and I am just blown away by the amount of people that immediately want to judge her. Everything she does is to make a point, all of her outfits, the performances and especially the music videos are all created for a reason. Behind the outfits and make up, Lady gaga is a truly amazing person with a voice and attitude so spectacular; she was definitely born to be a star.

With all the fame and fortune, you might think it would go to her head, but it doesn’t; Lady gaga is still the same “down to earth girl” her friends and family know. ‘I’ll always have one high heel in New York.’ Says Gaga who also said she hates L.A. because it’s full of shallow, self absorbed people. In way, all stars should be like Lady Gaga, always having time for their family and not blowing money on luxurious yet pointless things. The majority of her money she earns is for her shows, and you may not believe this but Lady Gaga doesn’t like money, she was raised being poor and that’s how she likes it sometimes; but what’s even harder to believe is that she doesn’t like being famous. You may be wondering why she is then but according to Gaga, she is married to her music and she needs it in order to exists, so basically she is doing all of this for her “little monsters”.

Although many might disagree, I believe that Lady gaga is truly inspiring. The way she worked her way up to the top, and how she believed in herself the whole way through, just makes her even more deserving of where she is today. ’I was always a star, just not everybody knew it yet.’ I also love how she doesn’t care of what people think, she struts up down the streets however she wants in whatever she wants, not caring what the tabloids might say. Tabloids are basically bullies and if there is anything Lady Gaga hates more than being famous, its bullies. Especially when it comes to gay rights, hence the song “Born This Way”. And that’s what is totally unfair; people hate Lady Gaga for what she believes in, but she doesn’t care, which is what I love about her. While in Australia Gaga sang at a gay club, and on her way out a group of people egged her and even though one did hit her, she kept walking keeping a smile on her face. This pop star is amazingly inspiring.

One of the best qualities of Lady Gaga and most likely one of the main reasons she became famous was because she is so interesting. At award shows it used to be “I wonder who will win best song?” now it’s “I wonder what Gaga will be wearing?” She keeps you on your toes and that is a really good quality. When she writes her songs she doesn’t just think of lyrics, Mother Monster also thinks of what she can wear when she performs the song ‘Art is music and music and music is art but question is, which came first? She says because her clothes and performances are a work of art.

Now you know Lady gaga as person, and as for her songs, there is one for anybody. From a light and cheerful song like “eh, eh, (nothing else I can say)” to country songs like “Born thins way (country road)” or “you and I” she even sang a jazz duet with Tony Bennet. On the outside she might look crazy, but if you look beneath that you will find a talented one of a kind artist that won’t ever give up on her dreams. Lady Gaga was a loser when she was in high school so it is very inspiring to see where she is today ‘I’m just changing the world one sequin at a time’. From pop to rock, to country and even hip hop, Lady Gaga can do it all, I hope that you found that you like her songs and her, even more as a person.
