Lady Gaga And Her Lingerie

Ever wonder why Lady Gaga became a walking lingerie ad? Well, apparently, it was to get the crowd’s attention at a gig in a New York City bar.

The bar was filled with drunken NYU students, who were basically ignoring the artist. Lady Gaga’s solution was to strip down to her bra and panties. According to Lady Gaga herself, the crowd’s attention shifted quickly once she was in her skivvies: “I started playing in my underwear at the piano and I remember everyone was all of a sudden like “Whoa”!”

Perhaps not completely surprising, given Gaga’s assets.

Somehow, despite that rough start, Lady Gaga is out to woo the world with both her music and her fashion sense. Her videos have been known to feature the musician in metal bustiers, latex underwear and accessories that wouldn’t make a dominatrix blink even once. In fact, most of her on stage costumes are comprised of some sort of lingerie, whether conventional or not.

Before she became Lady Gaga, this underdog of the bar gig was named Stefani Germanotta. She worked as a go-go dancer in burlesque bars - which may also have influenced her ability to casually strip down to her underwear in order to get a crowd’s attention. (It certainly wouldn’t be the first thing I would think of.)

You may not like her costumes, but Gaga definitely has some musical chops: she played piano by age 4 and went to Tisch School of the Arts at 17.

Well, Gaga seems to be in on the trend to pointy bras. She’s been wearing them for months, starting back in the summer. There was the little pvc number that she sported back in august that sent the internet a twitter. Of course, wearing a cone bra drew all kinds of comparisons to Madonna.

The next thing to expect is obvious: when celebrities don new fashion trends, us regular folks are usually not far behind. Look for more pointy bras in a lingerie store near you.
