Lady Gaga's Dog Walker, Ryan, Shares A Message From the Hospital

Ryan Fischer, Lady Gaga's dog walker, was shot last week in Los Angeles while outside with her three dogs. Although two of the dogs, Koji and Gustav, were taken at the scene, Asia escaped the suspects and remained at Ryan's side until authorities arrived. Thankfully, Ryan has recovered and Koji and Gustav have been found. After a week of intense care at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, he shared a heartfelt message on his Instagram.
 
4 days ago, while a car sped away and blood poured from my gun shot wound, an angel trotted over and laid next to me. My panicked screams calmed as I looked at her, even though it registered that the blood pooling around her tiny body was my own. I cradled Asia as best I could, thanked her for all the incredible adventures we’d been on together, apologized that I couldn’t defend her brothers, and then resolved that I would still try to save them… and myself.

Hopeful that my calm(ish) and forceful pleas for the urgency of my care as well as the focused descriptions of the dogs would be enough to help me and get enough police and media attention to find the boys, I looked backed at my guardian angel. I smiled at her shaking form, thankful that at least she would be okay.

From that point, right as the neighbors poured from their homes and restaurant to us on the sidewalk, life has taken a very sudden and unexpected turn.
I am still in recovery from a very close call with death and have kept myself (for the most part, I mean I am human) from the growing media story. I will write and say more later, but the gratitude for all the love I feel from around this planet is immense and intense. I felt your healing support! Thank you. I am humbled and grateful that attention and focus from the police were enough to get Koji and Gustav back to safety, and I know they are committed to bringing these criminals and attempted murderers to justice. I am so appreciative of everything you continue to do.

To all my friends and family who have cried with me and maybe even laughed at one or two of my morbid jokes by my side or over a screen: I love you. Thank you for keeping me grounded now more than ever. All the dog videos and photos from my clients to keep my spirits up worked miracles. Seeing their faces light up when you said my name motivates me to keep pushing so I can play with them and see you again soon. I love you all! First responders and health care workers: you literally saved my life and helped me take newborn walks, I can’t thank you enough. And to my family at Haüs and @ladygaga: your babies are back and the family is whole… we did it! You have shown so much support throughout this whole crisis to both me and my family. But your support as a friend, despite your own traumatic loss from your kids, was unwavering. I love you and thank you.

And now? A lot of healing still needs to happen, but I look forward to the future and the moment when I get bombarded with kisses and licks (and maybe even an excitement pee?) from Asia, Koji, and Gustav.

Lady Gaga Looking to Live in Rome

According to an Italian journalist, Lady Gaga has been eying possible homes in Rome to live in during the filming of Gucci.
"She is a bit capricious and afraid of COVID, which is why she doesn't want to go and live in a hotel. She really wants a house."
One particular home really caught Lady Gaga's eye: a penthouse overlooking The Imperial Forums. 

The residence is currently occupied, so her search continues.
The filming starts in March, so Lady Gaga would need to find a house soon if she wants to get settled before production starts.
The movie is expected to film in Rome, Florence, Milan, and Como with a release date of November 2021.

Lady Gaga Shares Story About A Family Member Recently Hospitalized During The Pandemic

Lady Gaga revealed recently, in an interview with People Magazine, that one of her family members was hospitalized for two months during the recent COVID-19 pandemic.
The singer also talked about her admiration for the healthcare professionals that have been risking their lives in order to take care of patients in hospitals.
Here's a preview from the interview:
"I got to be honest. I'm about to cry on the other end of this call with you because it's really — it's doctors, it's nurses, it's essential workers," she says. "I haven't spoken to this person about speaking about this publicly, but I will tell you that a very important member of my family was very, very ill recently and in the hospital for almost two months. I was in the ICU by myself many times because you can't go in with more than one person, if you can go in at all. I have never seen the heroic acts of bravery that I witnessed, watching these doctors and nurses and people that were cleaning at the hospitals."
[...]
"They put their heart and soul into their work, and they even cared for me, who — I assure you, nobody could even recognize me behind all the gear that I had on. They just said, 'How are you doing? How is your family? Is everything okay? Can we do anything?'" Gaga says.

Tony Bennett Shares His Battle With Alzheimer's Disease & Confirms A New Project With Lady Gaga

Tony Bennett opened up about his battle with Alzheimer’s on AARP.com. Alzheimer’s is the most common form of dementia on people with age. It’s characterized by memory loss, and ends up leaving the person very dependent on caregivers.
Tony was first diagnosed with the disease back in 2016, and while it has certainly progressed, he hasn’t experienced the disorientation that can prompt patients to wonder from home as well as episodes of rage, terror, and depression.
On the same occasion, he also talked about an upcoming project with Lady Gaga, scheduled for this upcoming Spring. The new Jazz album will feature songs recorded from 2018 to 2020.
Here's an excerpt from the interview:
Before his illness, Tony was known as a meticulous and hard-driving perfectionist in the studio. The 2012 documentary The Zen of Bennett (shot three years before the onset of any symptoms) includes an electrifying moment when Tony, working to calm a nervous Amy Winehouse during their duet on “Body and Soul,” snaps at producer Phil Ramone, who has dared to intervene on the studio mic: “No — stay out of it! Let she and I work it out.” In another sequence, he snaps at his music arranger-piano player, Lee Musiker, for using too fast a tempo on “The Way You Look Tonight,” which they are rehearsing for a duet with Faith Hill. “It can't be a throwaway,” Tony says. “I wanna do a definitive version of this song!"
But Tony was a considerably more muted presence during the recording of the new album with Gaga. In raw documentary footage of the sessions, he speaks rarely, and when he does his words are halting; at times, he seems lost and bewildered. Gaga, clearly aware of his condition, keeps her utterances short and simple (as is recommended by experts in the disease when talking to Alzheimer's patients). “You sound so good, Tony,” she tells him at one point. “Thanks,” is his one-word response. She says that she thinks “all the time” about their 2015 tour. Tony looks at her wordlessly. “Wasn't that fun every night?” she prompts him. “Yeah,” he says, uncertainly. The pain and sadness in Gaga's face is clear at such moments — but never more so than in an extraordinarily moving sequence in which Tony (a man she calls “an incredible mentor, and friend, and father figure") sings a solo passage of a love song. Gaga looks on, from behind her mic, her smile breaking into a quiver, her eyes brimming, before she puts her hands over her face and sobs.
The new LP offers lush, gorgeous duets, with both singers in superb voice. But there is one duty, in connection with the record, that Tony is manifestly not able to perform: promotional interviews. (When I asked him, “Are you excited about the new record with Gaga?” he stared at me silently.) This has left those in charge of Tony's life and career — chiefly Danny and Susan — in a quandary. Eager for as many ears as possible to hear and enjoy what may very well be the last Tony Bennett record, they have jointly decided to break the silence around his condition, a decision they have, necessarily, had to make without Tony's input, since he is, Susan said, incapable of understanding the disease, let alone making momentous decisions about whether to publicly disclose it.

We would like to send all our love and support to Tony Bennett and his family.

Lady Gaga And Her Grammy Story

As the 2021 Grammy Awards were originally supposed to air today, we decided to recap Lady Gaga’s wins, looks, and moments from the past decade to get ready for 63rd Grammy Awards which will now air on March 14th, 2021. 
Lady Gaga first attended the Grammy Awards eleven years ago today when she was nominated for five Grammys. Ultimately winning her first two, the star cemented her debut at the award show as a successful one. 
Below you’ll find a list of Lady Gaga’s nominations and wins. We also go into some fashion that she donned on us and moments that have become pop culture history. 
52nd Grammy Awards (2010)

Lady Gaga at her first Grammy red carpet in a custom Giorgio Armani.
Along with being nominated for 5 Grammys including Song, Record, and Album of the year, Lady Gaga also opened the show. Arriving in a custom Giorgio Armani gown, she changed for her performance wearing another custom Armani look. She sang Poker Face and then, along with Elton John, began a mashup of Speechless and Elton’s Your Song. 
Later in the show, Lady Gaga changed into a final look in which she wore the third custom Armani dress that had a matching headpiece. The purple version of this headpiece would later be used for the arena version of The Monster Ball Tour. Lady Gaga ends the night with two wins, one for Best Dance Recording for Poker Face and Best Dance Album for The Fame.

Lady Gaga and her first two Grammys. 
53rd Grammy Awards (2011)
The 2011 Grammy Awards had a lot of hype around Lady Gaga as she had released her new lead single, Born This Way, two days before the award show. With the song garnering mass popularity and the Grammys stating that Lady Gaga would debut the song at the award show the excitement of Little Monsters was at a peak. 

She arrived on the red carpet in an egg shaped “vessel” designed by Hussein Chalayan. Being carried onto the carpet, Lady Gaga never actually stepped on the red carpet herself and the models that walked with her stated that this was part of the performance. After the Aretha Franklin tribute, Lady Gaga performed Born This Way for the very first time. She emerged out of the vessel wearing a latex outfit which was designed by the Haus of Gaga. 
Being nominated for six awards, Lady Gaga was visibly excited when glimpses of her sitting in the audience were shown on television. This culminated when she had her first televised Grammy acceptance speech, wearing an outfit that would later be seen on the back cover of the album, Born This Way, she accepted the Grammy for Best Pop Vocal Album for The Fame Monster. She also won Grammys for Best Music Video and Best Pop Vocal Performance for Bad Romance. In the speech’s final moment, she thanked Whitney stating:  
“When I wrote, Born This Way, I imagined she was singing it because I wasn’t secure enough in myself to imagine I was a superstar.” 

Lady Gaga accepts the Grammy for Best Pop Vocal Album
54th Grammy Awards (2012)
The 2012 Grammys were held on Sunday, February 12th. The previous day, a year after the song, Born This Way, had been released, Whitney Houston had overdosed and passed away in her hotel room in Beverly Hills. The award show had shifted to a completely somber tone as the night was filled with mourning over the icon. 
Being nominated for Pop Vocal Album, Pop Solo Performance, and Album of the Year, Lady Gaga decided not to walk the red carpet due to her sadness over the passing of Houston. She also would not be performing as she was getting ready for her Born This Way Ball Tour. She wore a Versace look and held a matching scepter.  

Unfortunately, she went home with no wins and to this day, many Little Monsters believe that her album Born This Way deserved to win for Best Pop Vocal Album. 
57th Grammy Awards (2015) 
With no nominations for her fourth album, ARTPOP, Lady Gaga took two years off and returned to the Grammy’s in 2015 as a jazz diva. Wearing a Brandon Maxwell silver dress that matched her hair along with a beautiful emerald necklace designed by Lorraine Schwartz, Lady Gaga looked ravishing.

With Tony Bennett, Lady Gaga was nominated for Traditional Vocal Album for their duet album, Cheek to Cheek. They ended up winning the Grammy before the main televised event and Lady Gaga gleamed as she and Tony delivered an amazing performance of the song, Cheek to Cheek.  
58th Grammy Awards (2016)
While working with the technology company Intel, Lady Gaga had elaborate plans for her Grammy performance in 2016. However, a month before the show, David Bowie had passed away and the entire music industry paid tribute and mourned together. David Bowie is Lady Gaga's biggest inspiration. It was announced that she would pay tribute to him during the show with the help of Intel’s technology. 
In the late summer of 2015, along with Diane Warren, she released a balled written for the film, The Hunting Ground. The haunting Til It Happens to You, received a nomination for Song Written for Visual Media. Although not winning the award, Lady Gaga arrived at the red carpet in a David Bowie inspired ValÊrie Messika outfit. She then dazzled in her tribute performance and received critical praise for her masterful take on Bowie.
59th Grammy Awards (2017)
After her grand Super Bowl performance, Lady Gaga continued to wow audiences when she appeared at the 2017 Grammy red carpet. In custom Metallica. 

She performed their song Moth Into Flame and with this performance, Lady Gaga once again showed her chameleonic musical talent by singing a heavy metal song and amazed audiences with her professionalism as Metallica’s lead singer’s microphone was not working.
60th Grammy Awards (2018)
Lady Gaga attended the 2018 Grammys amid her Joanne World Tour. Arriving to the red carpet in a beautiful Armani gown and an elaborate hairpiece, she was there for her fifth studio album, Joanne, which was released in October of 2016. It was nominated for Pop Vocal Album and its second single, Million Reasons, was nominated for Best Pop Vocal Performance. 


Lady Gaga radiating beauty at the 60th Grammy Awards. 
Lady Gaga did not win any of her nominations as both were won by Ed Sheeran. In fact, women did not take many awards home that evening. When fans, artists, and music professionals shared their concerns, the Recording Academy president Neil Portnow at the time stated: 
 “women who have the creativity in their hearts and souls, who want to be musicians, who want to be engineers, producers, and want to be part of the industry on the executive level” should “step up.” 
Not only was this misogynistic statement met with backlash, but it further proved that the Recording Academy had many faults. Portnow stating this during the height of the #MeToo and Time’s Up movements was further proof of how women in Hollywood are treated. Lady Gaga even said “Time’s Up" in her performance. Since then, the Recording Academy has done its best to reverse its ways and include women. Many believe that there is much to be done. 

Despite this, Lady Gaga delivered a gorgeous performance of Million Reasons and the third and final single, Joanne (Where Do You Think You’re Goin’?), a piano version of the title track that was released a week before the Grammys. Performing along with co-writer, Mark Ronson, Lady Gaga sang beautifully as she paid tribute to her late aunt and brought the theme of the album to the Grammy stage. All this, while wearing a gorgeous pink dress as her piano was draped in angelic feathers that were shaped into a heart. 
61st Grammy Awards (2019)
The Grammy Awards in 2019 was a fantastic one for Lady Gaga. Coming off her film debut in, A Star Is Born, the lead single off the soundtrack, Shallow, was nominated for four awards including Record of the Year and Song of the Year. The song won for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance and Best Song Written For Visual Media. She was also nominated and won for Best Pop Solo Performance for Joanne (Where Do You Think You’re Goin’?). 
Arriving along Mark Ronson and the other Shallow writers, Lady Gaga wore a sparkly silver gown by Celine. In an attempt to repair the previous year’s lack of acknowledgment of women, the Grammys had Michelle Obama, Jennifer Lopez, Alicia Keys, Jada Pinkett Smith, and Lady Gaga deliver a powerful monologue at the start of the show. 
“They said I was weird. That my look, my choices, my sound, that it wouldn’t work. But music told me not to listen to them. Music took my ears, took my hands, my voice, and my soul. And it led me to all of you and my Little Monsters that I love so much.”

Returning on stage to accept her and Bradley Cooper’s award for Best Pop Duo/Performance. When it was time to perform, she sang, Shallow, live for the first time. She shined as she delivered a more rock rendition of the track. 
62nd Grammy Awards (2020)
Although not attending the Grammys in 2020, Lady Gaga was nominated for three Grammys including Song of the Year for the A Star Is Born's second single, Always Remember Us This Way. She ended up winning two Grammys, one for Best Song Written for Visual Media for a consecutive time for, I’ll Never Love Again, the soundtrack’s third single. She also won Best Compilation Soundtrack for Visual Media for A Star Is Born.  
63rd Grammy Awards (2021)
With the 63rd Grammys on their way, Lady Gaga has two nominations. One for Pop Duo/Group Performance for her 2020 hit with Ariana Grande, Rain On Me. And for Pop Vocal Album for her sixth studio album, Chromatica. 
Although Little Monsters believe that she deserved more nominations, they are still hopeful that Lady Gaga adds two more Grammys to her already 11 wins.
As of today, the 29-time nominee has not announced if she had planned a performance or appearance.

Lady Gaga launched Haus Labs in September 2019. The company is the very first beauty line to launch exclusively on Amazon. "They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder," Gaga says in the video. "But at Haus Laboratories, we say beauty is how you see yourself."
After the first commercial was released on July 9, 2019, Gaga decided to post one of the promotional pictures revealing how she struggled to embrace her inner and outer beauty when she was young. "I then began to experiment with makeup as a way to make my dreams of being as strong as my mother become true." 
It was then that I invented Lady Gaga. I found the superhero within me by looking in the mirror and seeing who I wanted to be.

 
Haus Laboratories officially kicked off with three products in six shades of each: Glam Attack, multi-use liquid eye shadows, RIP Lip Liners, and Le Riot Lip Glosses. Each product is meant to be multi-use ."The applicator on the Glam Attack gives you the opportunity to apply it very heavily, or lighty and shade it out, or to do both. You can use it as a highlighter. You could use it on your lips."
In November 2019, Haus Laboratories launched its first Holiday Collection called ''Cosmic Love'', with a brand new eyeshadow formula called the Glam Attack Metallic Creme, and the brand's first bullet-shaped Sparkle Lipstick in a shade of red called Burlesque.

Following up the release of the first single of ''Chromatica'', Lady Gaga launched the 'Stupid Love Eyeshadow Palette' with 18 high-pigment shades.

On July 31st, the Eye-Dentify Gel Pencil Eyeliner was launched. "We created these so you could write your own stories, develop your own perspectives, and show the world what you want them to see"
Currently, the Haus Labs launched their most recent collection “4-Way Eyeshadow Palette” with 6 different versions of it.

Lady Gaga Opens Up About Her Life During COVID on USA Today

Lady Gaga spoke recently to the American newspaper USA Today, where she talked about her life during the COVID-19 pandemic. 
Gaga revealed she felt powerless over everything that was happening around the world. She also encouraged everyone to move and exercise so that they can have a more active life. 
Here is an excerpt from the original interview:
The "Chromatica" singer, 34, told USA TODAY she shares what many people feel during this time: "an epic sense of powerlessness over what's happening in the world."
"We've encountered a super virus that is epic in its disastrous proportions," she said. "So that feeling of powerlessness in some ways is, I think, something that we all share."
The pandemic has energized her in other ways, though, adding that it has "really mobilized me to work on how I can help the world."
Gaga believes hopes it will be "one of the movements that is part of building back our global community and building back our local communities," by showing people that we "can get back to quote-unquote normalcy, but we must do it safely."
"It's been really important to me that I continue to move my body. It's really important for my mental health," she said. "So I've been doing, you know, regular exercises that I would normally do. But I mostly take walks, and I mostly hike. I wear my mask, and I go on hikes."
She said she "used to be really nervous about hikes" because of her chronic pain condition, but she's overcome her concerns.
"I found during COVID that... you can grab the courage that's happening in the universe and grab that bravery and put it right inside yourself and be fearless," she explained.
She hopes others stay active, whether through an online yoga class or a "walk around the block you live on," while the world is "in the midst of a mental health crisis."
"I really encourage people to move their bodies and be in the world. Wear masks, stay safe, but don't forget to move. Because when your energy's stagnant like that, it really can lead to mental health problems," she said. "I really believe that by practicing everyday skills... like moving your body, drinking lots of water, eating healthy, making sure to take care of yourself, self-care – these are things that we have to make sure that we're doing to take care of our minds."

Gaga Now x The Mighty: "Mental Health for Little Monsters"

We are very excited to announce our new collaboration with The Mighty. 
WHO IS THE MIGHTY?
The Mighty is a "safe, supportive community for people facing health challenges and the people who care for them." It is a platform where you can browse topics on the entire spectrum of health challenges from mental to physical, read stories and get inspired by people who might share similar experiences, join in discussions, seek help and provide support to the others. 
WHY THIS COLLABORATION?
Throughout her career, Lady Gaga has been open and honest about her own struggles with mental health from her experience with sexual assault to its consequences such as PTSD that emerged later on. She has dedicated her life to helping people understand mental illness and how they can cope with it through her work with the Born This Way Foundation and beyond. As Lady Gaga Now, we truly believe in her vision, and we also believe that pain, mental or physical, is best handled in communities where it can be shared, understood and validated. 
This is why we have partnered with The Mighty to create a brand new community on their platform: "Mental Health for Little Monsters." Our aim with this community is to establish and maintain a closed-knit community of Little Monsters in a safe and empowering environment where ideas and personal experiences can be shared without judgment.
HOW CAN YOU GET INVOLVED?
There are two ways. If you have noticed, we have a new MENTAL HEALTH section in our forum. We encourage you to share your experiences and respond to others who share theirs in a kind and respectful manner. The page will be highly moderated and any unsuitable behaviour will be penalized to keep it as safe as possible for those who want to be involved.
Secondly, our "Mental Health for Little Monsters" group is now live on The Mighty app. This initiative is meant to connect the Lady Gaga Now community to the larger Mighty community so that you can reach and interact with even a larger group of people. 
JOINING "MENTAL HEALTH FOR LITTLE MONSTERS."
