True life: I'm kind of fascinated by Lady Gaga.

We would like to show you a description here but the site won't allow us.

'Poker Face' is a synth-pop song in the key of G ♯ minor, following in the footsteps of her previous single ' Just Dance ', but with a darker musical tone. The main idea behind the song is bisexuality and was a tribute by Gaga to her rock and roll boyfriends. The song's lyrics feature various sexual innuendos. Poker Face original by Lady Gaga; The Day Before You Came original by Abba; Remixes. After All for Bebel Gilberto (2005, Six Degrees Records) Yes, I Love You for Shrift (2006, Six Degrees Records) Paris Blues for Duke Ellington (2007, Six Degrees Records) Asa Branca for David Byrne / Forro in the Dark (2007, Nublu).

No, I haven't completely abandoned every single anti-slutty, pro-feminist principle my ACLU-donating mother drilled into my brain. In fact, what I find so interesting about pantsphobic chanteuse is how she holds up to some of her contemporaries; Britney Spears and the Pussycat Dolls come to mind.

First of all, Gaga may be world-renowned for her refusal to wear anything that covers both of her legs and has multiple pockets, but she certainly doesn't go bottomless in the paparazzi-flashing, I-can't-look-away-from-a-trainwreck-this-ridiculous sense. Whereas Britney, Lindsay, and Paris gain their appeal from constantly appearing to be falling apart for a national audience, there's hardly a hair out of place during any of Gaga's public appearances. I mean, she must have the self-discipline of a marathon runner to never leave the house without a Kermit dress, or something equally unwieldy.

There's also the fact that the Lady doesn't seem to subscribe to anyone else's sense of the physically attractive or appealing. Just looking at her latest video, there's googly cartoon eyes that look like the craft-store ones you put on pet rocks, some undead mummy-larva dancers that came straight out of Pan's Labyrinth, and a totally sick getup from Alexander McQueen's latest runway show–which was inspired by prehistoric sea monsters.

Separated at birth? Yeah, thought so.

Even the close-up shots of her natural face reveal some features that probably wouldn't be there if she modeled herself after Mariah Carey rather than Grace Jones–like her nose, which is perfectly fine and will hopefully stay in its totally natural, slightly bumped form unless Gaga pulls an Ashlee Simpson mid-career.

All of which is to say, even though I find her music's quality to be catchy but not exactly groundbreaking, I'm glad Gaga is (hopefully) here to stay. She has her own unique feel that doesn't appear to be engineered for male fans; she keeps her persona so consistent it could practically be classified as performance art; and, most importantly, she's interesting.
