Ozzy O loves GAGA!
Wildman of rock Ozzy Osbourne is famed as the Prince of Darkness and known for biting the heads off live bats and doves. But the legendary rocker has shattered his evil image - by admitting he is a closet Lady GaGa fan.
Before Black Sabbath fans burn their records in despair, we should point out it's her wacky style and star quality he admires, rather than her pop tunes.
Speaking to Email exclusively from his LA home, Ozzy said: "It's not my genre of music at all but I must admit I quite like what Lady GaGa is doing.
"She is putting some panache back into the game and that is what it really needs.
Like her music? - "I don't particularly, well, to be honest I haven't really listened to it much so I can't really comment musically.
"But she has got this zizz and zazz and a bit of a buzz about her. There's something special there."
Ozzy reckons too many bands now look just like the kids they are performing for.
He worries that the star factor has disappeared from too many celebs - and that's why he thinks GaGa's OTT look is great.
In fact, he feels she's a throwback to his own 80s heyday when the stars on stage may have looked a little silly, but they were always firmly in the spotlight.
Ozzy said: "The 90s were so boring because you didn't know who was in the band and who was the road crew.
"They were all wearing the same clothes with the same hair. They can take the p*** out of us bands back in the 80s but at least you knew who the stars were."

Ga-Ga-Ga-Ghost!
Lady GaGa has spent £3,000 on ghostbusting gear because she's convinced evil spirits are haunting her.
The pop diva got aides to buy the specialist kit, including electromagnetic field readers, before her Monster's Ball tour gig at London's O2 arena tonight.
She told them she was terrified of "bad energy" - and ordered them to do a spirit-seeking sweep of the backstage area. Her request came to light after an aide phoned Dan Webb's ghost-busting firm. He said: "When I took the order for the kit I had no idea who it was for. But then I checked the listings and saw who was playing the O2. Her aide said the gear had to be robust as they were taking it on the road - so they must be doing this every where Lady GaGa is performing."

GaGa has Lupus?
Lady GaGa has been said to have the life threatening disease Lupus.
According to ylje.com GaGa has been canceling shows all over the here tour. This started when she almost collapsed on stage.

GaGa breaks down at concert
Lady GaGa broke down during the first UK show of her rescheduled Monster Ball tour - after dedicating a song to her sick granddad. Introducing Brown Eyes, she told the Nottingham crowd: "My grandpa is really, really ill.
"It's really upsetting me. My grandpa calls me Loopy because he doesn't understand why I am the way I am."

GaGa acts on her Queen of England fetish!
It makes sense for a method actor to go the distance in terms of getting into character, however, Lady GaGa is going off the deep end in embracing her British fetish.
Lady GaGa wants to be her Majesty GaGa. She is obsessed with the Queen of England after meeting her at a Royal Variety Show back in December. For her upcoming Monster Ball tour in the U.K., Lady GaGa has not only been dressing up in regal get-ups, but watching videotapes of the queen to perfect her British accent.
A source tells U.K.’s Sun: “She’s been copying the way the Queen speaks from online content. She loves all things British, especially the Queen.
“She wants to be able to do a really good accent for when she’s over here on tour later this month.
“If she gets dressed up in regal attire, she feels like it helps her accent.”
Now in terms of getting the right opinion on her accent, Lady GaGa tries it out on Sir Elton John. Apparently, she loves to chew his ear off about all things British. (Let’s hope she’s a Mr. Bean and Monty Python fan).
The source continues: “GaGa is trying it (the accent) out on every available opportunity.
“One thing she loves doing is prank-calling her friends to see if they can guess who it is.”
The good news: at least those close to her are admitting that it’s an intentional move on Lady GaGa’s part. When Madonna donned a faux British accent a while ago, the world just thought she was nuts. No word yet if Lady GaGa is living off a diet of fish and chips.

GaGa applies for hat-making internship
Lady GaGa has reportedly decided to apply for a hat-making internship.
The Daily Mail reports that the hitmaker will put her music career on hold to pursue the project, which means she will have to relocate to London.
"GaGa's crazy about the idea. Philip Treacy agreed to give her an internship when they met at the Brit Awards. She hopes to take him up on the offer this summer," a source claimed.
"Lady GaGa has requested an internship but Philip will have to check her sewing skills first," a spokesperson for Treacy confirmed.
GaGa was recently unveiled as the new creative director of Polaroid.

Christina Fights Back... But is this just to sell out?
Another decade, another dance-pop death match? Years after the belly-chained Mouseketeer rumble that was Britney vs. Christina, Aguilera has goosed the media’s thirst for blond-on-blond battles once again with her recent comments to Out magazine on Lady Gaga—but says now, She Was Not Herself That Night (or more accurately, was “taken out of context”).
The Out quote (“’Oh, the newcomer? I think she’s really fun to look at”) is, of course, not Xtina’s first time addressing the topic; In 2008, she famously claimed not to be familiar with Gaga, or even know whether she was a she at all: “”I’m not quite sure who this person is, to be honest. I don’t know if it is a man or a woman. I just wasn’t sure. I really don’t spend any time on the Internet, so I guess I live a little under a rock in that respect.”
And several weeks ago, when asked about the comparisons, she told an Atlanta radio station: I’ve been around for over a decade and I think my work speaks for myself. [When I was younger] I would have engaged, been a little upset [about the comparisons]. There’s a bigger picture out there. I’ve got my son, my family, my work.”
“You know what I love about the new breed of newcomers,” she told another station, “is that they’re risk takers. They’re doing things that aren’t so safe. … I always had the guts and passion to do things like that. … I’m happy to see that people have come full-circle and are now accepting it and are into it and these girls have the guts to do it.”
Aguilera also took to her own website yesterday to address the Out comments in an open letter, saying:
I would like to take a moment to clarify something that has been brought to my attention this morning. It is very easy for comments to be taken out of context and create unnecessary drama-especially between us women. So I would like to tell you all directly so my words can not be misconstrued to sell someone else’s story…I have absolutely nothing against Lady Gaga or any other female artist in this business. I think she is great, and I appreciate any woman fearless enough to go against the norm. She has earned her success with hard work and a clear focus and I have nothing but respect for that.
There is room for all of us on everyone’s iPods.
This is not the first time I have been unfairly pitted against another female artist but it will be the last time I comment on the matter.
“Can’t hold us down….”
With love,
C/X
Gaga herself has yet to respond; her only real on-the-record comments regarding Aguilera came in December 2008, when she described the press’s comparison of the two as “very flattering…She’s such a huge star and if anything I should send her flowers, because a lot of people in America didn’t know who I was until that whole thing happened … What it showed me was, even though I’ve only been on the commercial market for seven or eight months, I’ve really burned graphic images of my visuals onto the irises of my fans.”

MOST SEARCH WOMAN EVER!
Lady GaGa is the most searched for woman on the planet, I mean Internet. Actually, she probably is the most searched on the planet because a new poll out ranks the top 50 women searched for online from around the globe…and Lady GaGa came out on top.
Is it any wonder she’s searched for? She makes an appearance wearing strange outfits and people need to google it to see if what they saw the night before was correct!

According to Helium:
Lady GaGa is the most searched woman on Google, the web as a whole, and maybe elsewhere in alternate universes as well. GaGa isn’t just hot this year, she’s gone nuclear. Searches for everything from her videos and music to shoes, nails, wigs, clothes, genitals, pictures, youth, tour dates, and anything else you can think of continue to blow and show no signs of slowing down.

Fans are furious with American Idol over edited performance of 'Alejandro'
"Would you take a $250,000 painting, cut it in pieces, and put it together to better fit your wall?" So says the petitioners who are peeved that "American Idol" had the nerve to slice two minutes off of Lady GaGa's televised performance this week.
Apparently the high-rated show had better things to do with its limited time than to broadcast all six-and-a-half minutes (seen in the video above) of the pop diva's recital, choosing instead to get to the business at hand of kicking a young singer off the show (adios, Aaron Kelly). Meanwhile, some speculated that perhaps the Fox powerhouse edited bits of "Bad Romance" because the dancing was a tad too hot for prime time. Regardless, GaGa tweeted her disapproval and was obviously so upset that it affected her spelling. "FOX POORLY + AMATEURLY edited+cut my performance/musical arrangement on idol", GaGa typed.
Naturally, the comments on both the Idol Tracker blog and Ministry of Gossip showed the wide spectrum of reaction one might expect from such a pressing issue. Read some of them after the jump....
carrie wrote: Idol should have either kept the performance intact or informed GaGa ahead of time that she had to keep her performance to 5 minutes or whatever. Idol is horrible at keeping time and Gaga cares about how she presents herself. I have no doubt that she would have cut the performance time if she had been given warning. There's really no excuse for Idol's complete inability to run on schedule.
jen countered: Lady GaGa performance on wed was the lowest rated idol results show since 2002.
So obviously she didn't do much for ratings and nobody cared.
becca didn't think it was all that either: That's art? hahahahah. Thats like calling the "dogs playing at the pokertable" art. Seriously, its garbage. Thank goodness Harry Connick Jr came to save the day.
Crystal thought the government should be alerted: We record American Idol every week and this is the first time since Idol began that we ever DELETED a taping. It was the worst, most inappropriate and dark performance for this type of audience that I've ever seen. Every week we see young kids sitting in the audience and this is what they were exposed to??? If this is what Idol expects to continue to have as entertainment on their show, they should expect a lot less ratings! It was AWFUL and talk about wardrobe malfunction -- The FCC should jump on this one too!!! Maybe a few concerned parents should give them a call or send them an email.
Silvia agreed with Crystal: The piece should not have been shown during prime time TV while young impressionalbe kids were watching TV.
schristensen is outraged at GaGa, but for her complaint, not her performance: Could you be anymore full of yourself, your singing songs for cry out loud, not curing cancer.
So what do you think? If Idol has someone of Lady GaGa's magnitude on their show, should it treat her like Picasso or does it have the right to trim down her act to fit their allotted time slot? Or is this much to do about nada? Share your thoughts in the comments below.

GaGa loses Royal Lingerie!
Pop star Lady GaGa has miffed the lingerie firm which holds the royal warrant to provide underwear to the Queen of England after she lost the hand crafted pieces which were loaned to her for a music video.
Rigby and Peller claims it sent seven sets of the handmade Autumn/Winter 2010 collection to New York for the 'Paparazzi' singer to wear in a new music video, reported Daily Mail online.
And the firm alleges only three sets of underwear, made it safely back across the Atlantic, with the rest of the collection being reported as lost in transit.
"They are all hand-made and unique designs that are simply priceless and are not available anywhere in the world so we are really disappointed not to get them back in time for our major showcase of the year," said the spokesperson of the firm whose clients include royalty as well as Hollywood A-listers.
"The last we heard the underwear was still 'AWOL' and we are not sure when we will see them again. If we don't get them back then it could hold up the whole production of our AW10 collection as they are the prototypes," added the spokesperson.
Rigby and Peller's collection included skin-coloured basques with black contouring and matching high-waisted knickers, as well as sheer black lace bras and pants.
