Lady Gaga - The Fame (Part 1): Just Dance, Poker Face, Trans-vestigation at Glastonbury

RedOne! Konvict... GA-GA.

Lady Gaga arrived seemingly fully-formed in 2008 as a David Bowie-referencing, Grace Jones-dressing blonde New York party girl ready to disrupt pop. The one-two punch of Just Dance and Poker Face established her as a fashion-savvy, sexually charged visual artist ready to push buttons and take over the industry, while the record-breaking album The Fame introduced her and RedOne as two forward-thinking hitmakers inspired by the 1980s and Britney Spears' Blackout.

How did she get there? Who invented the character of Lady Gaga? And did Akon discover her? Listen to part one of our deep dive into the most game-changing era of the 21st century.
