Recently, the infamous Lady Gaga was on 60 Minutes and was interviewed by Anderson Cooper. Now, don’t get me wrong, I don’t exactly consider myself to be a fan of Gaga’s music, but having watched the brief interview, I kind of understand more about who she is and what her goals are in regards to her life and work. Frankly, I think she’s providing us—everyone in the western world, at least—with a commentary on ourselves. I like her references to the “sociology of fame,” and how she uses this to make herself a “professional famous person”…who just so happens to know how to sing.
