There are so many things to say about Lady Gaga… Genius, different, rebellious, victim of sexual abuse, troubled love, chronically ill and owner of the Grammy, Oscar, all the words This course is probably more than enough to cover the 34-year turbulent life of the artist with the long name Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta.

“I once had a boyfriend who said I would never be successful, would never have a hit song, would never be nominated for a Grammy. He hoped I would fail miserably and I texted Tell him again: ‘One day, when we are no longer together, you won’t be able to go out for coffee anywhere without seeing my image on TV or in the newspapers.’ Many years later, that bad guy is probably thinking back on every old saying while witnessing the sight of Lady Gaga stepping onto the 2019 Oscars stage and holding the prestigious golden statue in her hand.

“If you have a dream, fight hard for it. Passion also has its own rules. No matter how many times you are rejected, tripped up or defeated, what matters is how many times you stand up and courageously move on.”

LADY GAGA

“Thank you for trusting us. Thank you very much. We had to work hard for a long time and you know… The important thing is not because of winning, but because we don’t want to give up. If you have a dream, fight hard for it. Passion also has its own rules. No matter how many times you are rejected, tripped up or defeated, what matters is how many times you stand up and courageously move on,” choked the owner of the hit song “Shallow” that touched millions of people. sweet on the Oscar stage.

WHEN “CRAZY” AND “DIFFERENT” ARE WOUNDS PAST AND ALSO THE LIFE SAVIOR OF THE FUTURE

Lady Gaga’s parents both started from a low-class background, rose up through their own efforts, and Lady Gaga was born in the cradle of effort. In the eyes of the audience, Lady Gaga is a prominent name in the world music industry with a unique personality, but few people know the story behind it is a past wound that is difficult to erase.

Since childhood, Lady Gaga has been extremely different, from her personality, her way of dressing, to her behavior. Lady Gaga began discovering her natural musical talent at the age of 4, when she put her hands on the piano keys, dreaming of becoming a legend like David Bowie and the band Queen. At the age of 17, she excelled in becoming one of 20 young people specially admitted early to study at the prestigious art school in New York – Tisch University. She was well-trained in singing and composing skills, but in her second year, she decided to drop out of school to pursue her musical dream in a separate direction, not following any predetermined path. .

Few people know that Lady Gaga encountered the biggest earthquake in her life during her second year of college. At the age of 19, she became a victim of sexual abuse, leaving a deep mental wound in her already weak and confused mind. Only later did Lady Gaga confide in her story: “After being abused, I became a completely different person. I lived alone for many years, not daring to tell anyone. I avoid the past and feel ashamed to this day. There are times when I think… is it my fault? After the mental shock, Lady Gaga fell into depression, had an eating disorder and had to ask for help from her family and doctors.

However, in the year when she encountered the biggest incident, she determined to separate herself from her family and find her own path in music. “I left my family, found the cheapest apartment possible and ate trash until someone would listen to me sing,” Lady Gaga recounted. She refused all allowances from her parents, wandered around business districts to sell records, and sang at nightclubs at cheap prices to “market” her own voice even though she was always in front of her eyes. shaking heads and cold eyes. 19-year-old Lady Gaga is like a moth rushing into the vague light ahead, and for her, that light is the opportunity to become a singer.

Perhaps because of the psychological shocks and difficult circumstances in independent life, Lady Gaga’s music is so dark, rebellious and eccentric that it becomes a “difficult dish to swallow” for people. general tastes of music listeners at that time. But that “difficult” music became a future opportunity. Disoriented on her career path, Lady Gaga finally found a “lifesaver” in 2005. She made a strong impression when she recorded two songs with hip hop singer Grandmaster Melle Mel and approached the opportunity. Meet famous producers Rob Fusari, Vincent Herbert. This is an important prerequisite to create a reputation for the name Lady Gaga in the European and American music industry later.

In 2008, Lady Gaga emerged as a phenomenon thanks to the song “Just Dance”, winning with a series of record hits “Poker Face”, “Love Game” and “Paparazzi”. The image of Lady Gaga with platinum bangs, dressing in a “strange” style, and rigid, robot-like choreography suddenly caused a stir around the world.

No one can explain why Lady Gaga became famous so quickly, only that she breathed a new breath into the US-UK music industry, which was gradually entering a period of decline. Thanks to Lady Gaga’s composing ability, songs by famous names such as Britney Spears, New Kids on the Block, Fergie, The Pussycat Dolls, and Akon all have new and creative colors. And so the “Lady Gaga empire” was erected like a towering shield in the world of music. Lady Gaga is “strange”, but for some reason people keep trying to copy each other and follow that difference. But she knows, this “strangeness” lies in the artist’s flesh and blood and personality. And no one can be as different as Gaga.

Holding 6 Grammy gold statues, Lady Gaga reached the peak of fame at the age of 30. But along with her brilliant career is the underground hell that Lady Gaga has to face: the psychological “monster” that haunts her insides. past, chronic fibromyalgia in middle age and a chaotic life between love and career.

Many years have passed, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) after the sexual abuse at the age of 19 still torments Lady Gaga every day, especially when she has to endure heavy pressure at work. “Til It Happens to You” is a song Lady Gaga wrote about her past and is also dedicated to victims of sexual abuse. At the 2016 Oscars, the female singer brought tears to millions of people in her performance conveying the pain of the past “Til It Happens to You”.

Not stopping there, Lady Gaga discovered she had chronic fibromyalgia in 2017, leading to her having to cancel a series of important tours. A series of psychological symptoms such as depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, and panic disorder still follow Lady Gag’s abuse at the age of 19 and gradually lead to physical pain. The image of Lady Gaga in pain, writhing in a hospital bed has blown away the public’s doubts about her. Many people previously thought that Lady Gaga was out of time, so she had to exaggerate everything to regain the spotlight.

“I use the word “suffer” not to beg for sympathy, to attract public attention. People say that I “dramatize” everything, make up stories and pretend to be a victim to escape the tour. If you understand me, you will know what is real and what is fake. I am a warrior. I use the word “suffer” because the psychological trauma and chronic pain have changed my entire life, not allowing me to live a normal life and not allowing me to do the thing I value most in this world. : to perform for my fans”.

Having endured many years of mental and physical pain, the female singer still worries every day for her own happiness. “I have difficulty balancing success and love.” Lady Gaga once revealed that her life is associated with an unbreakable curse: Every time she achieves an achievement, she breaks up with the person she loves. In 2006, Lady Gaga dated her “sponsor” producer Rob Fusari and broke up just a year later – right when the female singer had her first opportunity to reach the threshold of success. Lady Gaga dated creative director Williams from 2008 to 2010, then reunited with her ex-boyfriend Carl in 2010. In 2011, Gaga suddenly broke up with Carl and started dating Kinney. The couple got engaged on Valentine’s Day 2015 but broke up in 2016.

Looking back, I see that Lady Gaga always broke up with her lover at the time she reached an important milestone in her career. In 2010, she reached a record of 1 billion views on Youtube with “Bad Romance”. In 2011, the female singer set the record for the highest-grossing tour for an artist promoting her debut song. In 2016, Lady Gaga won the Best Actress award when participating in the horror series “American Horror Story” to the surprise of the public. Heartbreakingly, just a week before holding the 2019 Oscar in her hand, Lady Gaga called off her engagement to her fiance Christian Carino. “It was a sad day. I couldn’t bear to realize that I had lost Matt William when I sold 10 million albums, lost Luc Carl when I sold 30 million records, and lost Taylor Kinney when I landed the role in “A Star Is Born.” “, the female singer was moved. Life doesn’t give anyone anything for free, but it takes away so many things from Lady Gaga. Even though she is the most powerful, wealthy and talented woman in the world, Lady Gaga has still not found a happy place for herself and still has to endure physical and mental pain every day. At the age of 33, perhaps what this female singer needs most is the most primitive things. That is also the reason she chose to remove the flashy dresses, masks of a celebrity and even showbiz tricks to return to the most original art.

Anyone who reaches the top will gradually decline, and the same goes for art. This is a moral law that any artist can understand. At this time, many people choose to give up, but many also choose to return to the simplest and most original things, to live true to themselves and gradually reach new heights.

Lady Gaga, 33 years old, completely transformed. People no longer see her wearing flashy outfits, strange designs or making rebellious statements, challenging public opinion like before. Lady Gaga’s tricks back then are probably no longer suitable for the audience’s tastes and have gradually lost their entertainment and media value. Instead, a gorgeous Lady Gaga, shining in elegant, classy dresses on the red carpet, can now easily make the front pages of all leading American newspapers “explode”. People cooed, people admired the appearance of the successful and beautiful woman Lady Gaga. But of course, Lady Gaga did not lose her inherent “crazy” and “weirdness” but just chose a different way of expressing herself. go: more discreet, more sophisticated in every musical and cinematic work she appears in.

Encountering the work “A Star Is Born”, Lady Gaga seemed to find a new opportunity. She came up with a story that she may have experienced somewhat – a love story in the glamorous music industry. Transforming into the character Ally and leaving tears rolling down her cheeks as a perfect ending to the movie, Lady Gaga surprised the audience with her commendable acting ability and the way she integrated her own emotions. into a life story that seems fake but is so real in the hearts of every viewer.

Thanks to the work “A Star Is Born” in collaboration with Bradley Cooper, Lady Gaga has reached her life’s dream – the prestigious Oscar. Having achieved admirable achievements in the world music industry, this woman made the whole world admire when she received the nomination for Best Actress Oscar 2019. On the prestigious stage that day , Lady Gaga did not win an acting award but got her first Oscar gold statue in her career thanks to her strength in music. Sadly missing out on the most prestigious award, the female singer still “surpassed” Beyoncé to set an all-time record: Becoming the first and only artist in history to win at all four major awards ceremonies. are the Grammys, BAFTA’s, Golden Globes and Oscars in just one awards season in 2019.

Perhaps it is thanks to the 18-year process of transforming from a period of success with a rebellious personality to the threshold of maturity, a more subtle “difference” that has helped Lady Gaga conquer the hearts of global audiences. Or say In other words, her life story is a complete picture of the relentless art process of a true artist with all the joys and sorrows, from failure to success and so on. .
