Babs says it herself: “You almost have to BE gaga not to have heard of Lady Gaga.” As you may recall, Andy Rooney has not heard of Lady Gaga.

She’s the queen of modern spectacle. She’s commander of endless legions of theater nerds-turned-Little Monsters. She’s Dali’s take on Madonna, and, as The Independent puts it, “the whole pop world wants to take a ride on her disco stick.” Lady Gaga has been touring in support of 2009’s The Fame Monster for months and months now, and she’s just announced that she’ll be extending The Monster Ball tour, which she calls “the first-ever pop-electro opera,” to include about 24 more dates, the last of which is April 19 at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena.
