When "hatch" on stage, gave essentially the birth of the "Born This Way", performed by the eponymous lead only the second album and anthem to self-acceptance. In 2011, the album will carry it around the world, which rarely goes unnoticed.After a year of excessive globe-trotting and relentless advocacy of tolerance, the Lady Gaga has been voted Entertainer of the Year by members of The Associated Press.

But it was Lady Gaga superiority which in 2011 stood out most to voters. While accepting the Best Pop Vocal Album Grammy for the previous album, "The Fame Monster", earlier this year, said his stardom was an adjustment for her.
"When I wrote" Born This Way, «imagined (Whitney Houston) was the song because I was not secure enough in myself to imagine that I was a superstar," he said.
When the album was released in May, 1.1 million copies in its first week, partly aided by a dramatic discount from Amazon, which sold for 99 cents. But it was an industry-shocking moment, because an extra 60 percent of sales during the first week were digital downloads. Overall, surpassed the next 42 albums with a combination of the charts in Billboard. From October, global sales surpassed 8 million copies.
"One of the biggest projects of my art is the art of Fame," the 25-year-old said "60 Minutes" earlier this year. "I am a teacher of art fame."

The concerts spawned an HBO special, which was nominated for five Emmys Awards and won one. Lady Gaga was a regular presence at the award shows throughout the year. He has won three awards Grammy, in February, including Best Female Pop Vocal Performance. She won two MTV Video Music Awards. He was recently nominated for three Grammy awards for next year's awards, including best album.

He visited the White House and appeared as a guest musician on "Saturday Night Live". She performed at the 65th birthday-bash former President Bill Clinton and an ode to Marilyn Monroe. It remained the most followed person on Twitter, with more than 17 million small monsters - or most people living in Greece and Ireland combined. And the mark of true fame, was parodied the weird Al Yankovic, who turned "Born This Way" to "Perform this way."
He has collaborated with a host of music legends including Elton John ("Hello, Hello" for "Gnomeo & Juliet"), Tony Bennett ("The Lady is a Tramp") and Cher ("The most important thing"). Has released the ever ambitious video, and more recently the 13 minutes epic "Marry the Night." We had 5 million views in less than 48 hours.
"It gets people talking," says Greg Retsinas, director of the Digital Press Democrat of Santa Rosa, Calif. "It's a polarizing figure not only in music and fashion, but in pop culture and society. In a recent week, I heard her refer personally by 9 year old daughter, a prominent local CFO and control, all glowingly. "

"I am a child of diversity," he said. "I am one with my generation."
The Lady Gaga will call the New Year with characteristic showmanship. This will be the featured guest at the annual Dick Clark's "New Year's Rocking 'Eve" special from Times Square in New York. Meanwhile, Christmas shoppers can walk through the screen holidays designed by Barney's New York: 5.500 square feet of bright colors, crazy shapes, and a giant statue animated superstar herself.
