Gagas 5 Moments Of Slaying 2015
Quote:
Basically, GaGa's 2015 has been backed with the flames of a thousand "yaaaaaaaasssing" suns.
The Lady is the real deal.
Here are the 5 best parts of the Lady GaGa-sance of 2015:
5. Cheek to Cheek (with Tony Bennett):
The album was killer; Bennett was as sharp and velvet as ever, and GaGa, once again, was one step ahead of us all, and transformed herself into bonafide jazz crooner without much effort. Her Artpop truly COULD mean anything. The album won best Traditional Pop Vocal Album at this year's 57th Annual Grammys, and debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. Just to top it off, GaGa also won the Billboard "Woman of the Year Award" last month.
4. Wardrobe:
Shockingly, GaGa has gone for the "less is more" approach to fashion this year, ditching the HP Lovecraft schtick, opting for chic simplicity. With the help of her stylist Brandon Maxwell (whose amazing fashion line debuted at NYFW last month), GaGa has been legitimately owning the red carpets, and casual wear. In some way, she's never been more GaGa than she is today, stripped down and letting the talent speak, rather than the meat dress.
3. Her Collaboration with Tom Ford, Lucas Knight, and Niles Rogers:
Earlier this month, Tom Ford released a music video starring his 2016 Spring/Summer women's collection. Oh, and also GaGa. Covering Chic's classic "I Want Your Love," with production by Niles Rogers, and direction by Lucas Knight, GaGa slayed the legendary song with a new spin on modern disco. It's fresh, and hopefully a direction the crooner will explore in her TBD announced next album. She also starred in the video, looking the fiercest that she has in years.
2. American Horror Story: Hotel:
With only the first episode under our belt, it's hard to know just how good of an actress GaGa is, being the new star/villain of American Horror Story: Hotel, Ryan Murphy's annual horror anthology on FOX. Hardcore AHS fans were divided after the news that GaGa would be filling the Loubitons of the show's regular star, Jessica Lange. But from her scenes in the season's premiere, GaGa is killing it, literally, as Countess Elizabeth, the owner of the cursed Hotel Cortez.
1. The 2015 Oscars:
GG's medley from the Sound of Music at the Oscars has already been placed into the library of iconic. Taking the stage in an elegant, custom-made Alaia gown, GaGa's hair and makeup were refined; she was almost...unrecognizable. Her singing was gorgeous, classic, and "Yeah, bitch, I'm that good," without beating it over our heads. It was simply divine. Her standing-O from the teary audience of Hollywood's A-List (and all of us at home), and a hug and kiss from the OG Maria (Queen Julie Andrews) after her performance, heralded the return of Lady GaGa with big gay trumpets blaring.

Hell, even the straight GP in the Internet don't know of it. Hardly iconic.
