Musical style and influences

"Lady Gaga Musical style and influences"

Lady Gaga has been primarily influenced by glam rockers such as David Bowie and Queen, pop singers Michael Jackson and Madonna, artist Andy Warhol, poet Rainer Maria Rilke, fashion icon and entertainer Grace Jones, and fashion as a whole.

Lady Gaga's vocals have drawn frequent comparison to Madonna and Gwen Stefani, while the structure of Lady Gaga's music is said to be reminiscent of classic 1980s pop and 1990s Europop.

In reviewing Lady Gaga 's debut album The Fame, The Sunday Times asserts "in combining music, fashion, art and technology, Lady [Gaga] evokes Madonna when she was good, Gwen Stefani circa Hollaback Girl, Kylie 2001 or Grace Jones right now."

Similarly, The Boston Globe critic Sarah Rodman comments Gaga draws "obvious inspirations from Madonna to Gwen Stefani... in [her] girlish but sturdy pipes and bubbly beats." Baby A. Gil of The Philippine Star asserts that her voice is "just right for the mix of dance and rock that Lady Gaga does." As an artist, Alexis Petridis of The Boston Globe commented that although Lady Gaga lacks originality, "pop music doesn't have to be blindingly original or clever to work: it needs tunes, and Lady [Gaga] is fantastically good at tunes." Though Gaga's lyrics are said to lack intellectual stimulation, "[she] does manage to get you moving and grooving at an almost effortless pace."

Lady Gaga-The Fame, semi nad

"Lady Gaga-The Fame, semi nad"

Lady Gaga appeared semi-nad, wearing only plastic bubbles, on the cover of the annual 'Hot 100' issue of Rolling Stone in May 2009. In the issue Lady Gaga discussed that while she was making her beginnings in the New York club scene, Gaga was romantically involved with a heavy metal drummer. Gaga described their relationship and break-up, saying of it, "I was his Sandy, and he was my Danny [of Grease], and I just broke." He later became an inspiration behind some of the songs on her debut album The Fame.

Lady Gaga also stated that she is bis*xual and is inspired by beautiful women, which Lady Gaga says makes her boyfriends "uncomfortable." Lady Gaga later regretted the comments she made of her s*xuality, saying, "I don't like to be seen as somebody who is using the gay community to look edgy. I'm a free sexual woman and I like what I like. I don't want people to write that about me because I feel like it looks like I'm saying it because I'm trying to be edgy or underground."

Lady Gaga had previously told a crowd at one of her concerts that her song "Poker Face" lyrically discusses fantasizing about a woman while being in bed with a man.
