Why Lady Gaga is famous?

Lady Gaga, is a superb American singer and songwriter born on March 28, 1986 raised in New York City, she primarily studied at the Convent of the Sacred Heart and briefly attended New York University's Tisch School of the Arts before withdrawing to focus on her musical career. She began performing in the rock music scene of Manhattan'sLower East Side, and was signed with Streamline Records by the end of 2007. During her employment as a songwriter for the record company, her vocal abilities captured the attention of recording artist Akon, who signed her to his label Kon Live Distribution.

She is famous because of:
Music
While there are some ardent followers of the Lady, there are some others who think her music is awful. Whatever be the case, no one can deny the fact that her music is impressive. It makes an impact even if you hear it for the first time. There are some others who are impressed by her fluency at playing the piano. She is classically trained to play the piano, a feat that very few accomplish.

Fashion Freak
Lady Gaga is one such celebrity, in the modern times, who really has the guts to have an unconventional fashion sense. She is one of those few pop stars who can flaunt a blood smeared performance or wear a bubble dress. She also wore a dress fabricated from animal flesh and called it the “meat dress”.
Philanthropist
Although a controversial figure and a regular feature in local tabloids, Lady Gaga still manages to tear this image of hers by engaging in various philanthropic activities. She is an influential advocate of the LGBT movement and holds benefit concerts for the afflicted and needy.
The key thing is Lady Gaga realised by using all the current social networking sites, and integrating that with her fashion, she has become an all-round entity. Every time she goes out the door she's looking different, she's getting photographed, she's aware of that and she's using it by updating herself literally on a daily basis. 
There's always something interesting about her for people to talk about. It excites both the social networking space and potential fans but has also become a huge matter of public interest. Another key thing was that quite early on, her record label decided one of the things that was missing from the story was showing how gifted she is as a musician.

Gaga's parents, who exposed her to artists like The Beatles, Stevie Wonder, Bruce Springsteen, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin and Elton John, had significant influence on her childhood and, presently, still do. "I am a real family girl. When it comes to love and loyalty, I am very old-fashioned. And I am quite down-to-earth for such an eccentric person," she insists."I'm quite traditional in the family sense. I've always been that way."

Gaga continually experimenting with new musical ideas and images, Gaga's musical and performance style is the subject of much analysis and scrutiny from critics. She professes that she is "liberating" herself by constantly reinventing her sound and image, insisting that she has been drawn to such a practice since her childhood. Vocally, Gaga possesses the range of a contralto and exhibits "overwhelming expression, instinctive vocal phrasing, '80s rock reminiscent chest belts and animalistic vocal ticks" while being able to move through 2.4 octaves. Refusing to lip sync, Gaga – whose range is frequently compared to those of Madonna and Gwen Stefani – has manipulated her vocal style over the course of her career yet considers Born This Way (2011) "much more vocally up to par with what I've always been capable of." In summation of her voice, Entertainment Weekly wrote, "There's an immense emotional intelligence behind the way she uses her voice. Almost never does she overwhelm a song with her vocal ability, recognizing instead that artistry is to be found in nuance rather than lung power."
