Gaga is the only top40 pop artist to make the list on her own.As her record 18.4 million Twitter followers can attest, Lady Gaga has turned the idea of social marketing on its head. The provocateur/innovator isn’t simply a pop artist or a brand—she is a way of life. Without Gaga’s Little Monsters, there would be no Beliebers for Justin Bieber or Barbs for Nicki Minaj. That sort of influence with fans has been entirely transformed through Gaga’s branding deals.
When Virgin Mobile sponsored her tour, she worked the company into the show itself by way of a nightly phone call to a fan in the audience. As creative director for Polaroid Grey Label, her presentation at the 2011 Consumer Electronics Show affirmed that she was an active participant in the creation of future products. All of which is merely a piece of the Gaga puzzle: She’s a singing, dancing, performing and producing visionary that’s reviving the pulse of dance music on the radio.
Lady Gaga is one of the most popular superstars in the world, but what does that mean? Does her popularity equate to the ability to influence and impact the world? You bet it does.
According to Forbes magazine, Lady Gaga is the most powerful woman in the world, for her age. Gaga's celebrity status affords her a great deal of power over the people. She can use her celebrity to leave a positive impact on the world and she is surely trying.
Lady Gaga is only 25, imagine what she will achieve by the time she is 50. According to the list, Gaga beat out heavy hitter, Beyoncé. Beyoncé is a force to be reckoned with, but Lady Gaga is no withering flower. She has one of the biggest and most dedicated fan bases in the world. Her Little Monsters are more than willing to do whatever Mother Monster asks. Her influence is obvious in music and fashion trends all around the world.

This is a phenomenal album,popjustice mentions.The music's balance of super-naive and super-confident echoes parts of Gaga's own personality…..
You might say that Lady Gaga's year really began in an egg. That's how she arrived at the Grammys in February, encased in a large, translucent pod carried by scantily clad dancers. When she "hatched" onstage, she effectively gave birth to "Born This Way," performing the eponymous lead single of her second studio album and anthem to self-acceptance. In 2011, the album would carry her around the world, where she rarely went unnoticed. After a year of extravagant globe-trotting and relentless advocacy of tolerance, Lady Gaga has been voted Entertainer of the Year by members of The Associated Press. There were 135 ballots submitted by U.S. news organizations that make up the AP's membership.

'Bad Romance' (released on 2009) becomes the #10 greatest popular song since 1923!
TIME magazine: Our critics pick the most extraordinary English-language pop recordings since the beginning of TIME magazine in 1923. Here are 100 songs of enduring beauty, power and inventiveness!
Aren’t pop stars supposed to be sweet? Britney, Christina and Katy just wanted to love and be loved by you. Even Madonna’s early work was largely about thanking her lucky stars and wanting to dress you up in her love. But Gaga doesn’t want any of that. On the lead single from her second album, The Fame Monster, she pines for a destructive relationship that she knows will end in disaster. (Or, according to the music video, a singed bed and a corpse. Either/or.) She will play mind games. She will use you. “Bad Romance” is an infectiously catchy dance song about all of the crazy, messed-up feelings people have for one another.
Lady Gaga has definitely proven her worth and her growing Internet presence! According to famecount.com, it is reflected that Lady Gaga has over 2 billion views on her YouTube channels, LadyGagaVEVO and LadyGagaOfficial,combined. The video 'Bad Romance' alone contributes more than 400 million of these views.
Also, Gaga has uploaded videos such as Gaga Vision and the country road version of Born This Way, which helped boost view counts by an obvious lot.
YAHOO! had a look at some of the most recognizable album covers of all time, including titles from The Beatles, U2,Lady GaGa & Nirvana.
'Born This Way' album cover is featured as one of the most iconic album covers of all time according to YAHOO database along with some other's legendary covers like, Beatles,Michael Jackson and more.
Born This Way,is the second of the pop diva’s albums, the special edition album cover featured a close-up of the artist’s head from the standard edition. The single “Born This Way” became the fastest selling song in iTunes history.
The United States Postal Service announced Monday that it was tossing out its rule that its stamps honor only dead individuals and will be opening up this postage-stamp-size billboard space to the living, as well.
Eager — some might say desperate — to engage the public as postal revenues decline, the service has asked citizens to jump on Facebook and Twitter and submit the names of five living people they would like to commemorate.
Postal officials said they hoped the move would create some excitement and even prompt some young people to engage with snail mail, at least for special occasions.
“Having really nice, relevant, interesting, fun stamps might make a difference in people’s decisions to mail a letter,” said Stephen Kearney, the Postal Service’s manager of stamp services. “This is such a sea change.”
When the news broke Monday on the Web sites of various news organizations, including The New York Times, readers began promoting their favorite candidates. Popular nominees included Lady Gaga, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates and Bob Dylan. CBS News gave readers a choice, listing options like Neil Armstrong (very popular) and Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook (not so much).
Sources say that the post office has been facing severe financial problems and increasing in interest in stamp collecting could help boost income, since stamps that are collected rather than used for postage provide an added source of income.
