Lady Gaga: Glory

It's hard to define her. And that's precisely the way Lady Gaga wants it. Even her self-named moniker from the Queen Radiohead album means "foolishly enthusiastic and a bit crazy." Yes, Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta had a plan to remake herself into an outrageous icon. It began with Italian Catholic New York City roots then expanded to glam pop, electronic rock, burlesque and even jazz alongside nonagenarian crooner, Tony Bennett. Piano lessons began at age four and taught Stefani to create music by ear.
