Personal life
Why isn't there a section about her personal life? Charles Essie (talk) 02:07, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
 * As mentioned in previous threads, that would basically be asking for trouble (namely becoming bloated with trivia, fancruft, gossip, or any combination of the three). Not a risk worth taking. There also isn't anything of encyclopedic value to add that can't be mentioned (and isn't already) within "life and career", especially when Rob Fusari and Taylor Kinney are known to have worked together professionally. While Christian Carino (unless I'm missing something) isn't known to have been involved with her career the way those other guys have, he's adequately covered within the A Star Is Born section. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 02:20, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
 * To add, Carino was with her management team so again, part of her career. — IB [ Poke ] 12:30, 1 March 2019 (UTC)

Transformation
Guys what do you think of using this source for updating the Public image section about Gaga's transformation. There are also other multiple sources regarding how she transformed into an awards season darling. — I<b style="color: #FF033E;">B</b> [ <b style="font-family: Tempus Sans ITC; color: #1C1CF0;">Poke</b> ] 10:20, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
 * I definitely think it should be mentioned. How her style was gradually changing beginning with cheek to cheek and her first oscars performance through joanne to a star is born. How she toned down her image "Gradually losing her gimmicks, or her “armour” as she’s called them" and when she "goes anywhere these days it’s just as herself, not as the highly stylised pop star wearing meat dresses, wigs and disguising make-up." etc. but I would maybe look for some other sources and expand on it even more.

Bad Romance on Impact
I think you should put Bad Romance on the "Impact" segment, everybody knows is a milestone for pop culture, I'll leave you some reasons in the links bellow: -#1 Best Music Video of the 21st Century: https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/list/8466543/100-greatest-music-videos-of-the-21st-century (Billboard) "she took the old standard for great music videos and set it aflame, then got to work building a new one."

-One of the All-Time Best Songs: http://entertainment.time.com/2011/10/24/the-all-time-100-songs/slide/all/ (TIME) "Bad Romance is an infectiously catchy dance song about all of the crazy, messed-up feelings people have for one another."

-#11 Best Female Songs of All Time: https://www.laweekly.com/music/the-20-best-pop-songs-in-history-by-women-artists-5264050 (LA Weekly) "Lady Gaga is a mad genius, and her 2009 MAGNUM OPUS "Bad Romance" is the pop music equivalent of a violent orgasm."

-#1 Song You Can't Get Out of Your Mind: https://www.apa.org/news/press/releases/2016/11/earworms (American Psychological Association [offical studies])

-#1 Best Music Video of 00's Decade: https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/readers-poll-10-best-music-videos-of-2000s-102206/ (Rolling Stone) "Lady Gaga became the strangest element of pop in the 2000s with her daring, high-fashion looks and out-of-the-box take on pop tropes. When "Bad Romance" rolled around, the song and video declared that she was more than just a flash-in-the-pan pop phenomenon and established her as one of the most innovative thinkers of the genre."

https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/468680/the-10-best-00s-music-videos-poll-results (Billboard)

-#21 Best Song of the 21st Century: https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/the-100-greatest-songs-of-the-century-so-far-666874/bad-romance-lady-gaga-667037/ (Rolling Stone)

All these without considering her multiple awards as Grammys and VMAs won for the song/music video. Bad Romance is her Thriller, her Vogue, her Baby One More Time, so I think it deserves to be considered as a song with a such an impact on pop culture. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 179.56.154.81 (talk) 22:38, 22 March 2019 (UTC)

Pronouns Can't be Used in Back to Back Sentencing.
In the vein of the decedented rhythm/blues singer Aaliyah with her name not being used more than once, having a pair of she beginning consecutively sounds disoriented.

More properly, it be transfused to something like "Known for her unconventionality, provocative work, and experimentation, Gaga began performing as a teenager singing in nightclubs" rather than the aforementioned she in two separate sentences. Template:edit semi-protected

Instruments
"Guitar" should be added to list of instruments she plays. She's played the acoustic guitar at times, mainly during the Joanne Era, but she's played the electric guitar multiple times in her career, namely during the Born This Way Ball Tour, as well as the keytar. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mortal Aphrodite (talk • contribs)


 * It's not as prominent as her use of piano, though, and the parameter is supposed to be for any instruments that a musician is really known for using. <b style="color:#009900">SNUGGUMS</b> (<b style="color:#009900">talk</b> / <b style="color:#009900">edits</b>) 20:20, 4 August 2019 (UTC)

Problem with "She is known for her unconventionality..." in the lead
This statement that she is known for her unconventionality, provocative work and visual experimentation has pompous underlyings to it. She's not the only artist of these characteristics. It should say something like, "Her artistry has been described by press as unconventional..." and a comment about her provocativeness and experimentation that I can't think of at the moment. Just about anything that doesn't use "known for" and the like should be more acceptable. 100cellsman (talk) 22:21, 6 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Your version is not bad, but I think it is even less neutral. I think the current version is more straightforward without being wordy while also conveying the idea. FrB.TG (talk) 11:58, 8 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Is it so? I just felt a subjective edge with the lead which I thought went beyond journalism. I don't have an alternative without making things more complicated than it should be. 100cellsman (talk) 00:11, 9 August 2019 (UTC)
 * There are things that are considered subjective like a singer being labelled as good, but Gaga being unconventional is a fact. It's not something bad, not something good. It's just her style. In my opinion, "known for" should work well here unless it was something else like "She is known for being a good singer". Your version would work there very well.

 * It isn't clear whether Gaga was joking when saying that earlier as noted here.

 * , It's not up to us to vet if it's a joke--the fact is she announced it. She could later announce it was a joke. Naming an album "Adele" is not so outrageous that it's beyond belief and reliable sources report it. ―Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 20:05, 2 October 2019 (UTC)

Sales using "As of"
I think we should remove every "as of..." used in every worldwide sales. Records sales depends on each reference and sometimes vary same year or different years etc. Everyone (users and wiki readers) can check all of them in the parameter "date". This also removes possible primary sources or "inflated sales". --Chrishonduras (talk) 21:17, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I agree with you, the use of "as of" give the idea that the artist sold million more after that and usually users go to those articles and "update" with more inflated sales they found in websites.--88marcus (talk) 17:33, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Seems like nobody cares about this "issue" since many users from her wikiproject are "active". This practice is common in all major "divas" articles and their discographies, 'cause usually are the same users. For example: Rihanna-to-Beyonce and so on. I'm fine if worldwide sales came from IFPI report for example, but others reliable sources are just an estimated and vary or depends with other sources. Even if the note is from the same year etc. Also, it's ok Billboard for USA sales, e.g. but not worldwide if we use in context "as of...". --Chrishonduras (talk) 17:57, 4 March 2020 (UTC)

COVID-19 activism
Gaga has made very notable efforts in fighting the 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic, so much so that she was described by Vogue as "the Face of COVID-19 Relief". Not only has she raised over $35M for COVID-19 relief, (many unofficial sources say $90M ), Gaga has partnered with World Health Organization and Global Citizen to establish the One World virtual concert. The concert has also gained many comparisons to Live Aid in 1985.

“French-Canadian Roots” false...
Hi according to genealogist's research Lady Gaga/Stefani germanotta likely does not have any French Canadian roots you can check it out here [quebec.com/files/madonna/individus/madonn a-lady-gaga-en.htm]. Her mother Cynthia Bissett does however (through her father Paul Douglas Bissett) have Scottish, English, German, Dutch and some distant Scotch- Irish/Irish ancestry. PAWS UP Magnumb22 (talk) 00:40, 7 June 2020 (UTC)
 * That actually is only saying she isn't related to Madonna as previously reported. It doesn't state or even suggest Gaga has the other types of heritage you mention (which seem to have been pulled out of nowhere), nor does it outright say Ms. Germanotta has no family from France. What that does say is both singers have Italian ancestry. <b style="color:#009900">SNUGGUMS</b> (<b style="color:#009900">talk</b> / <b style="color:#009900">edits</b>) 01:54, 7 June 2020 (UTC)

Addition of singer Rina Sawayama (look at her Wikipedia page) in the list of people Lady Gaga has inspired, under the Impact tab. 174.112.205.154 (talk) 20:58, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
 * We cannot simply use Wikipedia articles as citations for such claims per WP:Verifiability and would need to implement references that specifically say she inspired Rina. <b style="color:#009900">SNUGGUMS</b> (<b style="color:#009900">talk</b> / <b style="color:#009900">edits</b>) 00:01, 12 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Pictogram voting question.svg Question: So where is this "list" of people Lady Gaga has inspired? What I assume by that is the follwowing sentence. About the sources you have provided, I do not see anything in there that directly states that Lagy Gaga inspired Rina Sawayama. With that said, I will mark this edit request as Symbol declined.svg Not approved for original research; you may provide another reliable source to verify yoru edit request. &#123;&#123; reply to &#124;Can I Log In&#125;&#125; 's talk page! 00:09, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
 * I have found these two articles that clearly state that Lady Gaga either influenced or inspired Rina Sawayama: https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/awards/9426546/rina-sawayama-not-eligible-for-the-mercury-prize (BILLBOARD) and https://medium.com/@joeboothby/rina-sawayama-sawayama-album-review-89caac81cf0a (MEDIUM).

The February 2016 Lady Gaga net worth estimate of US $275 million is almost certainly no longer accurate, given that net worth estimates as of the current year,2020, report that Lady Gaga has a net worth of US $320 million. The net worth figure given on the Wikipedia page for Lady Gaga should be changed from US $275 million to US $320 million. Jdcabc123 (talk) 09:10, 25 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Estimates of a celebrity's net worth should be taken with a large pinch of salt. Celebritynetworth.com definitely isn't a WP:RS, while if you look at the Evening Standard source, it is simply referring back to the celebritynetworth.com source, which is churnalism.-- ♦Ian Ma c M♦  (talk to me) 09:39, 25 August 2020 (UTC)

American Horror Story
Why do you even bother with this edit. The only change that I made was that I put American Horror Story in the section of Born This Way, Artpop, and Cheek to Cheek. So, what is the problem with my edit? What is the reason why American Horror Story is in the section of Joanne? Neel.arunabh (talk) 15:59, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
 * The thing is AHS wasn't the only thing you put in that section but the entire year 2015. She appeared in AHS between 2015 and 2016 and released 'Joanne' in 2016, around the same time AHS: Roanoke came out, so it all ties up nicely. All sections are fine as they are. You trying to change things when there's no need for it. ArturSik (talk) 16:36, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

 * I could be wrong, but a gut feeling tells me this was more of an admiration post/inspiration to keep thriving than it was for something music-related (which is what we should prioritize for that section). <b style="color:#009900">SNUGGUMS</b> (<b style="color:#009900">talk</b> / <b style="color:#009900">edits</b>) 03:55, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

I want to change the term "glam rock" as describing Freddie Mercury to "pop-rock" as Freddie Mercury was not in a glam rock band, but one that played conventional rock music with a more or less conventional stage appearance and presence. Pbhressays (talk) 03:50, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
