The real influences, desires and aspirations of Lady Gaga are laid bare in this powerful and candid documentary film which features a unique and totally uncensored profile of Lady Gaga and her work. The pressures of her rapid ascent to fame and stardom are explored in a host of celebrity interviewees including Angie Bowie, Green Day, Robbie Williams and Madonna. 

What you also get are highlights from her songs Poker Face, Bad Romance, just Dance, Paparazzi, Love Game and a few more. There is the trademark lady Gaga look all around, her meeting with the Her Majesty The Queen and footage of her travels and a bit of concert footage shot across the world.

The song Poker Face deals with Gaga’s personal experience with bisexuality and the idea behind the song was to be with a man but fantasizing about a woman, hence the man in the song needs to read her "Poker Face" to understand what is going through her mind. Quite a song we’d say.

For those who need to know who the lady is, Stefani Joanne Germanotta is known as Lady Gaga (born March 28, 1986, New York City, New York, U.S.) an American singer-songwriter and performance artist, known for her flamboyant costumes, provocative lyrics, and strong vocal talents, who achieved enormous popular success with songs such as Just Dance, Bad Romance, and Born This Way.Its first two singles, Just Dance and Poker Face, that reached number one in Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States, and for the latter, becoming the world's biggest single of the 2009 calendar year. Its an infectious song and a fun piece of work.

It should be mentioned here that the film is unauthorisd and has not been authorized or approved by Lady Gaga or her management.

Perfect gift for any Lady Gaga collector.
