<p>Win a chance to meet <strong>Lady Gaga</strong>, attend her rehearsal and <strong>&#8220;Monster Ball&#8221; concert</strong> in Boston all while capturing it on camera.</p>
<p><strong>MySpace Music</strong> has announced an exclusive contest with international pop superstar Lady Gaga to win the chance to film the first U.S concert of her tour on December 1st in Boston, MA; the video will be edited and featured on the homepage of MySpace.</p>
<p>The Fame Monster herself will be choosing fan-submitted videos claiming why they deserve to &#8220;get close&#8221; to the superstar.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Buy Music:</strong></span></p>

<p>The contest has just kicked off at Lady Gaga&#8217;s official MySpace profile at: www.myspace.com/ladygaga. The chosen fans will be flown to Boston, equipped with cameras, to document her performance and share their experiences. The day they arrive they will head to the venue to watch Lady Gaga rehearse and meet and interview her. At the end of the night, the winners will hand in their cameras and their footage will be edited together into a comprehensive concert piece fully shot by her biggest fans and, in essence, creating three new official live videos for Lady Gaga.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Berlin&#8217;s <strong>Cinema Bizarre</strong> will release their U.S. full length set <em><strong>BANG!</strong></em> digitally on August 25, 2009, a day after the release of their second European album <strong><em>Toyz</em></strong> hits stores.</p>
<p align="center"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5953" title="Cinema Bizarre - Bang!" src="http://bandweblogs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/cinemabizarrebang.jpg" alt="Cinema Bizarre - Bang!" width="450" height="449" /></p>
<p><em>BANG!</em> will contain songs from both their debut European release <strong>&#8216;Final Attraction&#8217;</strong> and <strong>&#8216;Toyz&#8217;</strong> as well as exclusive tracks &#8211; namely the song <strong>&#8220;Wasted,&#8221; &#8220;Love Songs (They Kill Me)&#8221;</strong> <strong>Twiggy Ramirez mix</strong> and <strong>&#8220;Love Songs (They Kill Me)&#8221; Dave Aude Remix</strong> (bonus track).</p>
<p>Lead single <strong>&#8220;I Came 2 Party&#8221;</strong> is already a hit in Germany and is taking the dance floors by storm in the U.S.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdJDP0MzW9U" target="_blank">Watch &#8220;I Came 2 Party&#8221; video:</a></strong></p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="480" height="385" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/cdJDP0MzW9U&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="385" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/cdJDP0MzW9U&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>The track and video features labelmate <strong>Space Cowboy</strong>, whom Cinema Bizarre met while on tour with <strong>Lady Gaga</strong> earlier this year. &#8220;I Came 2 Party&#8221; is available on iTunes.</p>
<p>Cinema Bizarre released their debut album <strong>&#8216;Final Attraction&#8217;</strong> in Europe in 2008, where it debuted in the top 10. The first single &#8220;Love Songs (They Kill Me)&#8221; was also a top 10 hit.</p>
<p>A sold-out European tour followed and in January 2009 Cinema Bizarre was awarded the <strong>&#8220;European Border Breaker Award&#8221;</strong> for best selling debut album of a German band in Europe. Currently the band is on a European tour as they gear up for the release of <em>Toyz</em> and <em>BANG!</em>.</p>

<p>Go, who describes his music as “anthemic, epic, sharp pop with honest words,” wrote many tracks for his first album using software downloaded to the iPhone. On his &#8220;GO Phone,&#8221; he recreated piano, guitars, drums, and a horn section to make the album demo using a virtual four-track recording studio. He then went on to perform several songs on his iPhone at Wembley Stadium to a crowd of 70K people.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="center"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5276" title="Neil Young" src="http://bandweblogs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/neilyoung.jpg" alt="Neil Young" width="240" height="240" /></p>
<p>Hooray!! It&#8217;s the festival for sofa louches again this weekend. Yes, this time all over the world via the internet, TV and radio, ladies and gentlemen,<strong> Glastonbury</strong> is here again.</p>
<p>So there&#8217;s no need to go trudging through the swamps and bogs of Pilton to see some obscure musical act in the middle of nowhere. Now we can view the whole thing on our TVs at home or in the car or anywhere I suppose.</p>
<p>Once I&#8217;ve digested the usual morsels of the day, I gather up a clutch of lagers from the fridge and then tune the box to the good old BBC for what I hope to be an evening of quality alternative entertainment. The first band I saw on Friday was <strong>White Lies</strong>. They were nice. Pretty tunes for a pretty evening. The highlight of their set had to be the <strong>Bruce Springsteen</strong> cover of &#8220;Dancing In The Dark&#8221;.</p>
<p>Then I pressed the red button as they so often tell you to do, and was confronted by <strong>Lady Ga Ga</strong> in her glittery world of confuser gender. Playing through all of her current favorites. I think &#8220;Poker Face&#8221; is mine.</p>
<p><strong>Lilly Allen</strong>, God bless her, she is turning into quite the young festival princess and being as she has been coming to this place since she was a child, I suppose she has some sort of right to the title. Her set is fun, with Lilly wearing a purple cat suite and purple wig, flirting with the audience as she entertains everybody by playing all of her hits.</p>
<p>For my money, and to be honest, there isn&#8217;t a lot of it, <strong>Neil Young</strong> is the saviour of the night. This man is one of the last living legends left on this planet and he really brings it to the table tonight.</p>
<p>Mighty is the word you would have to use to describe Neil Young&#8217;s presence on stage. The last song of his set was &#8220;A Day In The Life&#8221;, a <strong>Beatles</strong> cover. Well you have to see the performance. He ends up tearing the strings from his guitar whilst still playing it. My words will not do this great man justice, so you will just have to check out his live performance to understand what I am saying!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="center"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3681" title="Emma Deigman" src="http://bandweblogs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/emmadeigmanpic.jpg" alt="Emma Deigman" width="303" height="455" /></p>
<p>With her upcoming tour supporting <strong>Girls Aloud</strong> and her debut album release this summer, London based singer <strong>Emma Deigman</strong> is one to watch this year &#8211; and Dave and I had the pleasure of meeting her at <strong>The Regal Room</strong> in London last week.</p>
<p>We had a bit of a rocky start getting to the interview &#8211; the Oxford Tube bus broke down on the way to London. Luckily, though, the bus was able to make it to the Hillingdon stop where we conveniently got on the tube to where we were originally told to go, <a href="http://www.studiovalbonne.co.uk/home.html" target="_blank">Studio Valbonne</a> in Soho.</p>
<p>Even with the bus incident, we managed to get there early, buzzed the door, we were let in, and we waited a few minutes on one of the red couches (cool club by the way). I think it was the owner, Xavier, who let us in and after about ten minutes of waiting, with no one showing up to meet us, he came over and asked &#8220;who is it you&#8217;re here to see?&#8221;. After a quick call from Xavier&#8217;s mobile phone, yes, believe it or not I still don&#8217;t have one, we got directions to the actual location for the interview and show &#8211; <a href="http://www.theregalroom.com/" target="_blank">The Regal Room</a> in Hammersmith. We left Studio Valbonne after a few apologies to Xavier (lovely man), quickly got into a taxi, went to the correct location, and ended up being over 30 minutes late. The good thing though, is that Emma and her management knew that it wasn&#8217;t our fault for showing up late, and they graciously greeted us upon our arrival!</p>
<p><span id="more-3680"></span>We were able to chat with Emma for over an hour before her show, and then, after a short wait, we were treated to an intimate acoustic set by Emma and her guitarist, in the packed room, filled with her family, friends and fans. Other acts that also played the Comic Relief Special were <a href="http://www.myspace.com/peterconaty" target="_blank">Peter Conaty</a> and <a href="http://www.myspace.com/domscheggia" target="_blank">Dom Scheggia</a>.</p>
<p>Emma&#8217;s debut single, <strong>&#8220;It Was You&#8221;</strong> is released March 23rd, and radio listeners, music buyers and fans are all in for a treat. The track has an old school feel, along with all the ingredients to make for a great pop song. Fun lyrics (&#8221;&#8230;I miss you baby, just like all the things I left in the past, but I wish I still had my Jimmy Choo shoes&#8230;&#8221;), catchy melody and high quality musicianship. What tops it off though, is Emma&#8217;s smooth, soulful voice.</p>
<p>It was great to see her perform &#8220;It Was You&#8221; live, with just the acoustic guitar for accompaniment. She&#8217;s set to go on tour with <a href="http://www.girlsaloud.co.uk/" target="_blank">Girls Aloud</a> starting April, and I think she&#8217;ll be gaining quite a few new fans during her time on the road &#8211; her biggest tour yet.</p>
<p>Emma has more up her sleeve than just music. The 20 year old has been acting since she was five. She&#8217;s done a lot of theatre acting, and her film debut was in the movie <strong>Last Orders</strong> starring <strong>Michael Caine</strong> and <strong>Helen Mirren</strong>, and she appeared in the BBC TV drama <strong>Daniel Deronda</strong>. Although music is her priority at the moment, she said that she would love to continue acting.</p>

<p><strong>Emma Deigman interview</strong></p>
<p><strong>Jenny May: Do you have any favorite directors?</strong></p>
<p>Emma Deigman: I think that Darren Aronofsky is an amazing director. Requiem for a Dream and Pi are incredible films.</p>
<p><strong>What kind of film would you want to do next?</strong></p>
<p>I would love to do a serious film.</p>
<p><strong>What&#8217;s a movie that you&#8217;ve seen recently that you liked? That stands out?</strong></p>
<p>Oh &#8211; I just went to the press screening of The Boat That Rocked the other night, with The Love Actually and Notting Hill director [Richard Curtis]. It&#8217;s a new British comedy film about the pirate radio stations on the boats, in the 60s. It&#8217;s absolutely hilarious. It&#8217;s so funny, you have to go see it when it comes out!</p>
<p><strong>You were on Top of The Pops with Jay-Z. What song did you perform and how did that go?</strong></p>
<p>Hard Knock Life. I was in Annie when I was ten and we were in the A Group &#8211; the group that opened the whole show, so we got to do every extra..and this rapper comes over from America and we had no idea who this person is, this was like ten years ago, and he was like, can we use the kids from your show to do Top of the Pops? and so the director said oh yeah, sure. So he sends us off and we have no idea what&#8217;s happening. And we meet the rapper, Jay-Z and we just had no idea, we were more excited about the fact that Five was standing next to us! Now I kind of kick myself thinking, Oh! Now he&#8217;s like one of the biggest music stars in the world, and I didn&#8217;t even know who he was. But I have a picture of him, so it&#8217;s all good!</p>
<p><strong>Someday if you do meet him you&#8217;ll be able to bring up the whole story.</strong></p>
<p>Yeah&#8230;that was so much fun. It was like a dream when you&#8217;re little, and we got to be on it, we were so excited.</p>
<p><strong>Who are you listening to at the moment?</strong></p>
<p>Kings of Leon. I pretty much listen to their whole album everyday. I went to see them live. They&#8217;re probably one of the best bands that I&#8217;ve seen. His voice&#8230;it&#8217;s so different, it&#8217;s just amazing. I&#8217;ve been listening to them for years &#8217;cause my older brother is like, obsessed with them, and he&#8217;s been listening to them for years, and I&#8217;ve been listening to them&#8230;and now they&#8217;re suddenly just everywhere. But I love the fact that they absolutely love the British, &#8217;cause we&#8217;re the people that brought them back! Who else&#8230;ummm&#8230;I quite like The Saturdays song &#8220;Issues&#8221;. I just love the girl&#8217;s voice &#8211; there&#8217;s one girl in it that&#8217;s got an amazing voice.</p>
<p><strong>Do you think they&#8217;re similar to Girls Aloud?</strong></p>
<p>Yeah, they are, they&#8217;re very similar.</p>
<p><strong>You&#8217;re going to be touring with Girls Aloud.</strong></p>
<p>Yes, I&#8217;m so excited. I&#8217;m a bit scared.</p>
<p><strong>This will be your biggest tour?</strong></p>
<p>Yes. Definitely. I&#8217;m so, so excited&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>I think that&#8217;s great. This will be a great thing for you.</strong></p>
<p>Yes, this will be an amazing opportunity. I can&#8217;t wait. I would never have thought that when I went to see Kings of Leon at O2, me and my boyfriend&#8217;s brother were just kind of joking, and he said oh you&#8217;ll be up there one day. And I was like, okay. He goes, I&#8217;m gonna make a bet. In the next four months. I was like, no, don&#8217;t be stupid. I give it three years. And three months later, he&#8217;s like, where&#8217;s that £50 please?</p>
<p><strong>It&#8217;s a good one to lose.</strong></p>
<p>I said how &#8217;bout I pay you backstage at Girls Aloud. Haha.</p>
<p><strong>So Kings of Leon and The Saturdays.</strong></p>
<p>I listen to Gavin DeGraw a lot.</p>
<p><strong>I&#8217;m not sure who that is.</strong></p>
<p>He&#8217;s American or Canadian. Do you know One Tree Hill?</p>
<p><strong>Yes.</strong></p>
<p>Do you know the song, (Emma sings the familiar tune perfectly) &#8220;I don&#8217;t wanna be anything&#8230;&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Oh yeah. I like that song!</strong></p>
<p>That&#8217;s Gavin DeGraw. He&#8217;s one of the most amazing songwriters. He&#8217;s just absolutely incredible. I listen to him a lot &#8217;cause I kind of go by one of his songs called &#8220;Belief&#8221;. Kind of one of my songs that I always listen to. Britney Spears. Good ol&#8217; Britney Spears. I kind of listen to different things. I like to listen to everything. I&#8217;ll listen to old school stuff like Marvin Gaye when I&#8217;m feeling in the mood&#8230;I love Radiohead.</p>
<p><strong>They&#8217;re from down our way.</strong></p>
<p>Oh, you&#8217;re from Oxford? Oh my boyfriend lives in Oxford.</p>
<p><strong>Do you go to Oxford much?</strong></p>
<p>Yes I do, actually. I like Oxford. I go there whenever I get a few days, &#8217;cause I don&#8217;t like being in London all the time. I&#8217;ve been brought up in the country, my parents live in Buckinghamshire, so it&#8217;s quite nice to go back to Buckinghamshire or Oxford where it&#8217;s just so peaceful. You still have the nightlife and the big city in Oxford, so it&#8217;s not like you&#8217;re stuck away.</p>
<p><strong>There&#8217;s a lot of good music in Oxford.</strong></p>
<p>Yes, I&#8217;ve been to quite a few random gigs there.</p>
<p><strong>How do you prepare for a live show usually? Do you have a certain routine, warmups?</strong></p>
<p>I probably should say yes, but no. Haha. My singing teacher will kill me for saying that. Do you know what, there&#8217;s a lot of things out there that people say, oh, you shouldn&#8217;t drink dairy products, you shouldn&#8217;t drink coffee, you shouldn&#8217;t do this, you shouldn&#8217;t do that. I just don&#8217;t really listen to anything people say&#8230;to be honest, I eat chocolate before I go on stage and it does absolutely nothing to my voice. I don&#8217;t see the point. I eat cheese before I go on, I drink coffee. Haha&#8230;I do warm up at home&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>I&#8217;m pretty bad too. I&#8217;ll just warm up to songs.</strong></p>
<p>Yeah, I warm up to songs, yeah exactly. But again, I&#8217;ll probably get told off by my singing teacher for this. But I mean, when I go on tour with Girls Aloud, I&#8217;ll probably notice it a lot  more &#8217;cause I&#8217;m doing gigs like once or twice a week, so I&#8217;ll kind of get a few days to get over it, whereas I think 33 dates with one day to rest in between five of them&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>The warmups will help you especially on the tour.</strong></p>
<p>Yeah, I&#8217;ll do a lot more. One thing I&#8217;ve started to do, I love saying it, started. Started this week&#8230;is I&#8217;ve started going to the gym!</p>
<p><strong>Do you play instruments? I know you write your own songs.</strong></p>
<p>I&#8217;ve written poetry and lyrics since I was really little. It&#8217;s more lyrics and melody that I write. &#8216;Cause I can read music, I can sit at the piano and read the music and play it, but I wouldn&#8217;t be able and sit down and be like [she does piano motions with her hands]&#8230;I can&#8217;t play the guitar, I&#8217;d love to say I could. I&#8217;m gonna learn. Maybe I&#8217;ll learn on tour.</p>
<p><strong>Do you have someone that you wrote the album with?</strong></p>
<p>Yeah, I wrote the whole album with my producer Eliot Kennedy. He&#8217;s amazing. If you know who he is, he&#8217;s kind of written with absolutely everyone.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9hnQV6VCEb4" target="_blank">Watch &#8220;It Was You&#8221; video</a>:</strong></p>
<p><object width="425" height="344" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/9hnQV6VCEb4&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/9hnQV6VCEb4&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /></object></p>
<p><strong>Is the video for &#8220;It Was You&#8221; on TV yet?</strong></p>
<p>Yeah &#8211; it&#8217;s on the music channels.</p>
<p><strong>We&#8217;ve been enjoying it!</strong></p>
<p>It was so much fun to make &#8211; with all my friends. Also, with it being my first video, it was maybe a 16 hour shoot and everyone was asking, you&#8217;re not tired? But the adrenaline was kicking in&#8230;I was just so hyper from that day!</p>
<p><strong>The director of the video, Trudy Bellinger has worked with Sophie Ellis-Bextor&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>Yes &#8211; and she does all the Girls Aloud videos, she did the Rimmel advert with Kate Moss..yes she was amazing. She was really cool.</p>
<p><strong>I watch most videos on the internet, so I&#8217;ll look forward to seeing it on TV&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>Well, it&#8217;s on the chart show at the weekends and on The Box &#8211; I think it&#8217;s on weekends and sometimes during the week.</p>
<p><strong>Do you have TV interviews scheduled yet?</strong></p>
<p>I did one for the chart show yesterday, where I got to host my top 12 videos. That was quite fun. And at the end it will play my video and that was an interview as well, so that was fun&#8230;with it being a pop channel, I managed to get <a href="http://www.rodstewart.com/" target="_blank">Rod Stewart</a>, The Fugees, Marvin Gaye, Guns N&#8217; Roses&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Speaking of Rod Stewart, what is it about him that you like so much? Jimi Hendrix is my idol, so&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>Oh, Jimi Hendrix. I picked a Jimi Hendrix video! Well, when I was little, my dad loved Rod Stewart, my dad&#8217;s Scottish, and he would listen to it, and I would be like, what is this? &#8216;Cause I was really little, I would be like, dad turn this off, we want <a href="http://www.britneyspears.com/" target="_blank">Britney Spears</a>, we want Five, Boyzone, and then when I got older and started to actually appreciate music, I realized, oh my god, this guy has got an amazing voice, just so captivating. I just love it and his songs. I guess his songs take me back to childhood, I&#8217;ve been brought up on his music and a song will relate to maybe a holiday we&#8217;ve been on or a long drive.</p>
<p><strong>What is one song by Rod Stewart that comes to mind that really grips you the most?</strong></p>
<p>I know a lot of people would say this is cliche, but probably Sailing, only because it was one of my dad&#8217;s favorite songs, and also Maggie May, but Sailing was the one that my dad used to always play so it&#8217;s the one that sticks in my mind.</p>
<p><strong>Video <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ITXFs8VhHKE" target="_blank">&#8220;Just Dance&#8221; &#8211; Lady GaGa cover by Emma Deigman:</a></strong></p>

<p><strong>We listened to your Lady GaGa cover of Just Dance on YouTube. We really like that. We&#8217;re passing that around. Would you ever want her to write you a song?</strong></p>
<p>I think she&#8217;s awesome, so if she wanted to write me a song, I wouldn&#8217;t say no!</p>
<p><strong>If you could write a song for someone, who would you want to write for?</strong></p>
<p>Probably Rod Stewart, yeah. Britney Spears. Haha. Ummm, I&#8217;d like to say, maybe Britney Spears. I love Rod Stewart, but&#8230;I think I might be a bit scared writing for him, actually.</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>Emma is very nice and down to earth, and I had fun talking to her. As we were leaving The Regal Room, we asked a guy outside for directions to the tube station. He asked if we had just seen the show upstairs. When we said yes, he told us that even though he lives just around the corner, that this was the first time that he had been there, and was there to see Emma play. I asked him how he had heard about her, and he said that she was featured on YouTube. He really enjoyed the show.</p>

<p><strong>Lady GaGa</strong> takes her plans for total world domination a stage further with the release of her second UK single, <strong>&#8220;Poker Face&#8221;</strong>, on 13 April, 2009.</p>
<p><strong>Watch video &#8211; <a href="http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&amp;videoid=45539953" target="_blank">Poker Face</a>:</strong></p>

<p>The track has already topped charts in Canada, Australia, New Zealand and much of Europe. The UK version of the single comes backed with a full set of remixes, as well as a solo live rendition of the song that shows yet another side of Lady Gaga.</p>
<p>Lady Gaga joined <strong><a href="http://www.thekillersmusic.com/" target="_blank">The Killers</a>&#8216; Brandon Flowers</strong> as special guests of <strong><a href="http://www.petshopboys.co.uk/" target="_blank">Pet Shop Boys</a></strong> at the <strong>BRIT Awards 2009</strong>.</p>
<p>Pet Shop Boys won the prestigious &#8216;Outstanding Contribution to Music&#8217; award and Lady GaGa joined them onstage for a <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZEqhXKFJLI" target="_blank">hit-packed medley (watch video)</a> at the close of the show.</p>
<p>In return Pet Shop Boys have remixed Lady Gaga&#8217;s album track <strong>&#8220;Eh Eh (Nothing Else I Can Say)&#8221;</strong>, which is available as a free download.</p>

<p>Looking for a decent bet on a tasty new pop starlet for 2009? Then look no further than <strong>Lady GaGa</strong>.</p>
<p>You&#8217;ve no doubt heard the name by now &#8211; plastered as it is across great swathes of the worldwide web &#8211; but who exactly is she? Take the name and roll it around on your tongue a little while: Lady. GaGa. The &#8216;Lady&#8217; is straightforward and the &#8216;GaGa’ pretty obvious (from Queen&#8217;s Radio GaGa if you&#8217;re really struggling), but the rest is far from simple.</p>
<p align="center"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2599" title="Lady GaGa - Just Dance" src="http://bandweblogs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/ladygagajustdance.jpg" alt="Lady GaGa - Just Dance" width="329" height="274" /></p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/search?ie=UTF8&amp;keywords=lady%20gaga&amp;tag=bandweblogs-20&amp;index=blended&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325" target="_blank">Lady GaGa</a><img style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=bandweblogs-20&amp;l=ur2&amp;o=1" border="0" alt="" width="1" height="1" /> on amazon.com</strong></p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/search?ie=UTF8&amp;keywords=lady%20gaga&amp;tag=bandweblogsba-21&amp;index=blended&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;camp=1634&amp;creative=6738" target="_blank">Lady GaGa</a><img style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.co.uk/e/ir?t=bandweblogsba-21&amp;l=ur2&amp;o=2" border="0" alt="" width="1" height="1" /> on amazon.co.uk</strong></p>
<p>She is a songwriter who learnt piano aged four, wrote her first song at 13, won early admission to the esteemed Tisch School of the Arts at 17, and writes tunes so irresistible that the <a href="http://www.pcdmusic.com/" target="_blank">Pussycat Dolls</a> and <a href="http://www.britneyspears.com/" target="_blank">Britney Spears</a> have each donned haute couture creations from the Haus of GaGa.</p>
<p>She&#8217;s a performance artist who spent her teenage years at any New York open mic night that would have her, and her early 20s performing in the city&#8217;s Lower East Side clubs.</p>
<p>And now, at 22, she&#8217;s a bona fide pop star. And how many of those do you know that fuse the chameleonic visual identity of David Bowie with a punk attitude and a sprinkling of pop magic dust?</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M65zI9LH-as" target="_blank">Watch Just Dance video</a></strong>:</p>

<p>With chart topping records across America, Europe and beyond, the UK is one of the few places Lady GaGa has yet to top the hit parade. But that&#8217;s only because her forthcoming debut album, <strong>&#8216;The Fame&#8217;</strong>, and its electro-dancefloor-riot lead single <strong>&#8220;Just Dance&#8221;</strong> – don&#8217;t land on these shores until early 2009.</p>
<p>That hasn&#8217;t stopped critics from tipping her for UK success, however, because in pop star terms Lady GaGa is as close to a dead cert as you can get.</p>
<p>Lady GaGa&#8217;s debut single, &#8220;Just Dance&#8221;, is out digitally on 29 December 2008; physical formats follow on 5 January 2009.</p>
<p>The debut album, &#8216;The Fame&#8217;, is released 19 January 2009.</p>
<p>&#8220;she&#8217;s got style, she&#8217;s got grace, she&#8217;s a winner&#8221; &#8211; <strong>Popjustice</strong></p>
<p>&#8220;Equal parts pop cutie, Studio 54 debauchee and art-trash performance artiste&#8230; Warhol would have loved her&#8221; &#8211; <strong>The Guardian</strong></p>
<p>&#8220;a tasty little pop tart with a Ziggy Stardust fascination&#8221; &#8211; <strong>The London Paper</strong></p>
