Opening Case: Strategy and success: Lady Gaga and Jeff Bezos

Lady Gaga

Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, better known as Lady Gaga, is the most successful popular entertainer to emerge in the 21st century. Her three albums,The Fame, released August 2008, Born This Way, released May 2011, and Artpop, released November 2013, sold a total of 26 million copies by the end of 2013. Her Monster Ball completed a 2009 concert world tour that grossed $227.4 million (the highest for any debut artist). She has earned five Grammy music awards and 13 MTV video music awards and places on Forbes’ listings of The World’s 100 Most Powerful Women (though some way behind German Chancellor Angela Merkel).

Since dropping out of NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts in 2005, she has shown total commitment to advancing her career as an entertainer and developing her Lady Gaga persona. Gaga’s music is an appealing pastiche of Seventies glam, Eighties disco and Nineties Europop. One music critic, Simon Reynolds, described it as, ‘ruthlessly catchy, noughties pop glazed with Auto-Tune and undergirded with R&B-ish beats’.1 (Links to an external site.) Her songs embody themes of stardom, love, religion, money, identity, liberation, sexuality and individualism.
