I just revisted The Fame (original album) and I must say while I was apprehensive and not supportive of the album as a whole (singles were pefect). In retrospect, I must say The Fame was the ideal debut album of an artist, I'm glad it was released.
I cannot get enough of the video.

I don't understand how there are enough hours in the day for Gaga to do all that she does... touring, photo shoots, recording, writing, learning choreography, etc. She seems to be everywhere, coming up with new things all the time.

All that in addition to eating, sleeping, and getting ready. Getting ready would probably take the longest given how detailed her outfits and makeup are. |

Like I've already stated, it upsets me with how much she ignores Canada. It's quite a surprise that she's not going to Florida, though... that's one of the more well-known states.

Why is she running herself down like this? Shes going to have a breakdown at this rate. Especially if the 3rd album is still scheduled for 4th quarter.

Who knows how long this massive success is going to last. They did the same with Kelly Clarkson during her Breakaway era. She toured the US once, went around again, went all over the world for a year, and came back and did a summer tour (but her voice was absolutely shot during the summer tour...I definitely noticed that) |

Your first year out is when you are FRESH and NEW and EXCITING. Its time to get that money!!! Also I think its hilarious that people are worried about pop stars dancing and singing (fun activities) and may get "burnt out". What I see is GaGa working 10 days in August while the other 20 she is chillin. While the rest of us work 2 jobs a day to just make ends meet. |

Gaga seems to be much more involved in her career than most other popstars. And she has almost passed out twice I think thats a good enough reason to think she needs to slow down. |

Gaga may love all of her work, but it's still hard work. It is definitely possible to get tired or stressed out even when you're having fun. I know she's the hottest thing in music right now, but I really hope she paces herself and maintains her health. I was going to buy tickets for her concert in Wallingford, CT for this past January (friends didn't want to go, everyone was broke, no transportation), but even if I had bought them, I wouldn't have been able to go since she had canceled due to an irregular heart rhythm from exhaustion! Canceling concerts is disappointing to both the performer and the fans, and I hope she's okay for this new leg of dates. I'd like to see her in Hartford or NYC.

It can be more exhausting than people would think. Constant travel+constant interviews+constant rehearsals. Plus, Gaga or her people have the bad habit of jamming EVERYTHING together-concerts very close to one another and interviews/promo littered in between concerts and travel. A lot of artists burn out especially since they don't feel like they can say no. I am still shocked when I look at pictures of Christina Aguilera during her debut era-she looked like a walking corpse by the end of it.

Will for sure be seeing her in San Jose! She was amazing on the last leg of the tour! Can't wait for this one! Missed it the first time around but will definitely try to go see it this time! Why is she running herself down like this? Shes going to have a breakdown at this rate. Especially if the 3rd album is still scheduled for 4th quarter. The album will probably end up coming out a little later than planned (I don't know any specifics yet). Sometimes they'll announce a tentative date or time and it ends up getting changed. As much as I would love a new album, I see the next one coming in early 2011. |

Producer files $30M suit against Lady Gaga in NYC
By JENNIFER PELTZ, Associated Press Writer Jennifer Peltz, Associated Press Writer 25 mins ago
NEW YORK β A songwriter and music producer who claims he helped launch pop star Lady Gaga says she squeezed him out of her lucrative career after he co-wrote some of her songs, came up with her stage name and helped get her record deal.
Rob Fusari filed a $30.5 million lawsuit against the Grammy Award-winning performer, saying his protege and former girlfriend ditched him as her career soared.
"All business is personal," said the lawsuit, filed Wednesday in a Manhattan state court.
Lady Gaga's spokesman, Dave Tomberlin, didn't immediately respond to an e-mail sent Thursday by The Associated Press.
Fusari had credits on such hits as Will Smith's "Wild, Wild West" and Destiny's Child's "Bootylicious" when a friend steered the piano-playing singer β then known by her real name, Stefani Germanotta β to him in March 2006, according to his lawsuit.
Though he initially dismissed her, he realized she had star potential after hearing her play in his Livingston, N.J., studio, the suit said. He spent the next several months working with her every day and "radically reshaping her approach," persuading her to drop rock riffs for dance beats, it said.
As they co-wrote songs such as "Paparazzi" and "Beautiful, Dirty, Rich," which would appear on her debut album, "The Fame," he transformed Germanotta into Lady Gaga, a name adapted from Queen's "Radio Ga Ga," the lawsuit said.
In a 2009 interview with the AP, Lady Gaga said her "realization of Gaga was five years ago, but Gaga's always been who I am."
"I was Gaga from the time that I was 19 through my first record deal," the 23-year-old said of her over-the-top, avant-garde style, which has captured the imaginations of millions of fans. "I always dressed like that before people knew me as Lady Gaga. I was always that way ... I stuck out like a sore thumb."
According to the lawsuit, Lady Gaga and Fusari's relationship turned romantic and then became a business partnership in May 2006, when they created a joint venture called Team Love Child LLC to promote her career. Fusari's share was 20 percent, it said.
Fusari β whose account of his role in the multiplatinum-selling artist's early career has been told in interviews β says he introduced Lady Gaga to a record executive who ultimately shepherded her to Universal Music Group's Interscope Records, which released "The Fame" in 2008. The album has sold more than 3 million copies in the United States; Fusari has a producing credit.
But the lawsuit says their personal and business relationship had soured by then and he has been denied a 20 percent share of song royalties, 15 percent of merchandising revenue and other money he's owed. He acknowledges getting checks for about $611,000 but says that isn't his full share.
Lady Gaga won two Grammys in January: best dance recording, for "Poker Face," and best electronic/dance album, for "The Fame."
