2011 Celebrity - Lady Gaga

Forbes has released their annual list of Top 100 most powerful celebrities. Surpassing all possible expectations, last year’s #4 Lady GaGa tops the list this year, beating Oprah Winfrey for the first time in the last four years. Oprah, who comes second, is followed by the youngest man on the list, Top 100’s newbie Justin Bieber.

Just like any other year, Forbes has ranked the celebs according to their estimate earnings in the past 12 months, as well as media and online exposure.

Lady GaGa, who made some $90 million last year, is the ultimate Internet queen with 32 million Facebook fans and 10 million Twitter followers. Her other records include 1 million digital downloads of ‘Born This Way’ within the first week of its release.

Oprah Winfrey is the biggest money maker in the top 3 with $290 million earned last year. Justin eared five times less but he’s got a devoted army of Beliebers on Facebook and Twitter, so this factor has contributed to his place in the celebrity ranking 2011.

Born This Way - Lady Gaga | Music Video and Lyrics

The Mother Monster Lady Gaga just released a Monster music video of her newest Monster single, "Born This Way" which is already topping music and radio charts across the world.


It's almost like a mini movie with all the story-telling in its first part and its length - whew! 7 minutes and 20 seconds!

Oh well, I am a monster! I enjoyed it - so much! Another great job Mama Monster! :D

I am loving Lady Gaga more recently especially after her sweet conversation with her little monster Maria Aragon on the phone. :D

Born This Way - Lady Gaga Lyrics

[Intro]
It doesn't matter if you love him,
Or capital H-I-M
Just put your paws up
'cause you were born this way, baby

[Verse 1]
My mama told me when I was young
We are all born superstars

She rolled my hair and put my lipstick on
In the glass of her boudoir

"there's nothin wrong with lovin who you are"
She said, "'cause he made you perfect, babe"

"so hold your head up girl and you'll go far,
Listen to me when I say"


[Chorus]
I'm beautiful in my way
'cause god makes no mistakes
I'm on the right track baby
I was born this way

Don't hide yourself in regret
Just love yourself and you're set
I'm on the right track baby
I was born this way

[Post-chorus]
Ooo there ain't no other way
Baby I was born this way
Baby I was born this way
Ooo there ain't no other way
Baby I was born-
I'm on the right track baby
I was born this way

Don't be a drag - just be a queen
Don't be a drag - just be a queen
Don't be a drag - just be a queen
Don't be!


[Verse 2]
Give yourself prudence
And love your friends
Subway kid, rejoice your truth

In the religion of the insecure
I must be myself, respect my youth

A different lover is not a sin
Believe capital h-i-m (hey hey hey)
I love my life I love this record and
Mi amore vole fe yah (love needs faith)

[Chorus]
I'm beautiful in my way
'cause god makes no mistakes
I'm on the right track baby
I was born this way

Don't hide yourself in regret
Just love yourself and you're set
I'm on the right track baby
I was born this way

Ooo there ain't no other way
Baby I was born this way
Baby I was born this way
Ooo there ain't no other way
Baby I was born-
I'm on the right track baby
I was born this way


[Bridge]
Don't be a drag, just be a queen
Whether you're broke or evergreen
You're black, white, beige, chola descent
You're lebanese, you're orient
Whether life's disabilities
Left you outcast, bullied, or teased
Rejoice and love yourself today
'cause baby you were born this way

No matter gay, straight, or bi,
Lesbian, transgendered life
I'm on the right track baby
I was born to survive
No matter black, white or beige
Chola or orient made
I'm on the right track baby
I was born to be brave

[Chorus]
I'm beautiful in my way
'cause god makes no mistakes
I'm on the right track baby
I was born this way

Don't hide yourself in regret
Just love yourself and you're set
I'm on the right track baby
I was born this way

[Outro]
I was born this way hey!
I was born this way hey!
I'm on the right track baby
I was born this way hey!

I was born this way hey!
I was born this way hey!
I'm on the right track baby
I was born this way hey!

Lady Gaga arrives in a giant egg at Grammy Awards 2011

Lady Gaga once again made a grand entrance at the Grammys by arriving on the red carpet encapsulated in a giant plastic egg carried by latex-clad men and women.


The press present during the red carpet ceremony of the 53rd Grammy Awards 2011 held yesterday, was not able to take the chance of interviewing the singer since she was inside this huge egg.


Lady Gaga was nominated for six awards for this year's Grammys including Album of the Year, Best Female Pop Vocal Performance, Best Pop Collaboration With Vocals, Best Pop Vocal Album, Best Dance Recording and Best Short Form Music Video. She won two of her nominations which were the Best Female Pop Vocal Performance and Best Short Form Music Video.

She did a live performance of her song "Born This Way" during the awarding ceremony.


After the event, Lady Gaga explained her Grammy 2011 costume via Twitter:

“I found this egg costume to be another violation of public health. Real food costumes are not safe because some people are allergic to raw foods and preservatives used to make such costumes”, she tweeted.
