1)To confuse random words and outfits with creativity.
2)To attempt to use a high volume of ideas to pass oneself off as creative over quality of ideas.
Wow you're songs sound like juvenille jiberish and you dress like a person with no personality trying to cover up with silly random outfits that seemed to have had zero thought involved you must be full of Lady Gaga creativity.
Wow it looks like all you do to create one of your outfits is walk outside see something and make a poorly constructed outfit out of it however you do this so often you must be some sort of genius,you must wield Lady Gaga creativity.

An american artist with hidden talents.
She is weird... obvously ... and she uses a lot of techno beats, but she also does a lot of acoustic songs on the piano. She is a classically trained pianist, and got accepted into NYU's music and performing arts program, which is REALLY HARD to get into, like... REALLY hard... you have to be really good!... however she's is always judged for trying to be different.... in the end you can love her or hate her, but ou can't say she can't sing... go look up her acoustic versions LIVE of her songs...my favorite one was her song "Captivated" which she performed @ NYU , or her acoustic version of pokerface on a show in Tokyo.... REALLY REALLY GOOD :) Seriously, I wasn't a huge fan til i saw it youtube it if you dont think she can sing... cause oh boy.... she CAN. Oh and she cleared uo the hemaphrodite/man rumor a long time ago... SHE'S A FEMALE KEEP UP WITH THE TIMES PEOPLE :) lol! have a nice day :)
There can be no example. Lady GaGa is just GaGa... just accept it already

Lady Gaga, a.k.a Stefani Angelina Joanette Germonatta is a 26-year-old singer, performance artist and songwriter. She learned how to play the piano by ear at the age of 4, made her first ballad at the age of 13, and began performing at Open Mike nights at the age of 14. After being signed to Kon Live Distribution, Streamline introduced Gaga to producers RedOne and Martin Kierszenbaum. Together, they produced many songs, most of which are in her 2008 release album, "The Fame". The album was an instant commercial success, and was nominated for Album of The Year. Despite controversy caused by Gaga's music videos for "Telephone" and "Alejandro", they made Gaga the first artist to gain one billion views on YouTube. In April of 2010, Gaga was named one of Time Magazine's 100 most influential people of the year. Gaga's second studio album and third major release Born This Way was released on May 23, 2011. Gaga has been entitled to fashion and artistry throughout her entire life, and when she became famous she decided to take advantage of her fame and made her love for eccentric fashion known to the world. In the Monster Ball, there are many different and eccentric forms of art and fashion within the stage, the dancers and the outfits. Lady Gaga is a nurturing, creative, and talented woman, whose music has saved the lives of many teenagers who have felt or currently feel how she felt as a teenager: insecure. She's amazing.

Lady Gaga Disease is when a normal person listens to Gaga's music only once and then they need to learn more about her. After they discover new things about Gaga, they start liking everything about her. Then they start getting protective of Lady Gaga and they form into 'obsessed fans' into Little Monsters.
These 'Little Monsters' think that everything Gaga does is cool, when obviously it's retarded and weird. They start liking her personality, actions, looks, speech, singing, acting, dancing, and everything else. While they're distracted by this 'perfect "woman"' (I just threw up a little when I typed that) they are completely unaware that she's a disgusting mutant freak.
Caitlyn: Hey did you watch that award show last night?
Sabrina: Yeah, I saw it. Did you see what Lady Gaga was wearing?!
John: YEAH I SAW HER! SHE LOOKED SO GOOD LAST NIGHT!!!!
Sabrina: Oh, I meant that she looked completely ridiculous with that dead fetus on her head...
John: SHUT THE HELL UP!! YOU'RE A DAMN IDIOT!!! SHE LOOKED BEAUTIFUL IN THAT OUTFIT!! YOU'RE JUST JEALOUS OF HER FAME AND SUCCESS!! SHE'LL ALWAYS BE WAY BETTER THAN YOU!!
Caitlyn: Oh my God, dude, you have Lady Gaga Disease.
