There is no getting around it–Lady Gaga stole the Oscar show singing “The Sound Of Music’ Tribute.
Like many of my generation when she first started appearing she seemed more of a joke than a serious musician but about a year ago I heard her sing some jazz and I was impressed enough to look into her background. She has had musical, singing and songwriting training, writing her first song at the age of 14. She has written songs for and/or with Elton John and Cher. Her collaborations with Tony Bennett have almost reached classic status.
Take away wearing the meat gown or other attention getting outfits, the distracting tattoos and her public persona and Lady Gaga stands as an accomplished musician.
Having won 6 Grammy awards, 13 MTV Video awards, setting over a dozen Guinness World records, starting her Born This Way Foundation plus her advocating for the Gay Community Lady Gaga can now count achieving what very few entertainers can do–stealing the spotlight from all at the 87th Academy Awards.
