Lady Gaga









5-time Grammy Award winner LADY GAGA makes her triumphant return to the Dallas this January with The Born This Way Ball. In this brand new show, Gaga performs her latest album Born This Way as well as music from both The Fame and The Fame Monster. The Born This Way Ball, produced globally by Live Nation, began on April 27th, 2012 in Seoul, South Korea and has been making its way around the world.

Pollstar's 2012 Mid Year report ranks the Born This Way Ball as the top grossing tour by any female artist worldwide this year. About the show, the Hong Kong Daily News wrote "Lady Gaga's Born This Way Ball is effortlessly brilliant in both the visual and musical sense," while Seoul Daily said that with her "splendid and unprecedented stage, she is the absolute queen of pop!" The UK's Daily Telegraph called the Ball "quite spectacular," while affirming that "Lady Gaga occupies pole position as the 21st century's ultimate pop star."

"The Haus of Gaga and I have worked for months conceiving a spectacular stage," said Mother Monster. "THE BORN THIS WAY BALL is an Electro-Metal Pop-Opera; the tale of the Beginning, the genesis of the Kingdom of Fame. How we were birthed and how we will die celebrating."

The Born This Way Ball is Lady Gaga's first tour since the release of her album Born This Way (Streamline/Konlive/Interscope), which has sold nearly 6 million copies worldwide since its release in May 2011. The album is the follow-up to back-to-back Grammy Award-winning albums 2009's The Fame Monster, and 2008's The Fame. Combined, The Fame and The Fame Monster have sold 15 million albums worldwide, while Lady Gaga's hit singles have combined sales of over 90 million worldwide.

Gaga was named Forbes' Most Powerful Woman in the World 2011 and was included in Time's annual "The 2010 Time 100" list of the most influential people in the world. With over 2.2 billion combined views of all her videos online, Lady Gaga is one of the biggest living people on Facebook with over 53 million 'likes' and is #1 on Twitter with nearly 30 million followers. She has also recently launched her own social network just for fans, LittleMonsters.com. Lady Gaga is the only artist in the digital era to top the 5 million sales mark with her first two hits.

The Lady Gaga concert performances scheduled to take place at Madison Square Garden on February 22 and 23, 2013 have been cancelled.

Live Nation Global Touring has confirmed that the remainder of the Lady Gaga Born This Way Ball performances have been cancelled.  After additional tests this morning to review the severity of the issue, it has been determined that Lady Gaga has a labral tear of the right hip.  She will need surgery to repair the problem, followed by strict down time to recover.  This unfortunately, will force her to cancel the tour, But Gaga’s tour hit LA recently so she was pap’d in West Hollywood looking about as ridiculous as we’ve all come to expect from the Mother Monster.

When it’s hot, Gaga wears fur, when it’s snowing, she wears lace panties and a lace bra. She is dedicated! I think she should experiment with her wigs and weaves more though. Thus far she hasn’t been putting duct tape on her nipples and walking outta her house looking like a circus member, but it’s still only January. Bring it Gaga, Pop star Lady Gaga is working on her new album while she is recovering from surgery, her manager has said.

In an interview with the Associated Press on Tuesday, Vincent Herbert said the 26-year-old Grammy Award winner was “doing wonderful, doing great.”

She is finishing her new album, “ARTPOP,” on Feb. 12, Gaga announced that she was suffering from synovitis, an inflammation of the joints that can cause significant pain, significant swelling and reduced range of motion. Subsequent tests revealed that she had a labral tear in her right hip.

The singer, who had surgery to repair the tear on Feb. 20, was forced to cancel the remainder of her “Born This Way Tour.” Gaga might be at home, but her “Born Brave” bus tour – her initiative to raise awareness about the danger of bullying and to inspire young people to be courageous and accept themselves – has continued its run.

“It’s an organization centered around anti-bullying and pushing the boundaries of acceptance,” the singer said in a previous appearance on “Good Morning America.” My mom and I are really passionate about that.  This is our passion project.
