Lady Gaga somehow more famous than before

John Moe May 17, 2011

(the other night at my house)

8yo daughter: Is “Lady Gaga” her real name?
Me: No, I think it’s Stefanie.
8yo: Stefanie Gaga?

Anyway, Stefanie Gaga now has 10 million Twitter followers and marked the occasion with a tweet : – “10MillionMonsters! I’m speechless, we did it! Its an illness how I love you. Leaving London smiling.”

Stefanie Gaga is also the first person to reach 1 billion YouTube views and ten million Facebook fans. She’s now launching new songs through the game Farmville.

If I didn’t know better, I would say she almost enjoys all the attention.

There are reports, however, that deep below the ocean’s surface there is a small subspecies of crustacean – it feeds on trace minerals – that is not all that familiar with her work. She will not stop, won’t REST!, until that situation is remedied.
