The singer-actress whose real name is Stefani Germanotta made waves in the music industry with her 2008 debut album and went bankrupt in 2011. She was able to get out of the slump thanks to the popularity of her work
Lady Gaga has it all. This year the singer-turned-actress won three Grammys, two for 'Shallow' and one for 'Joanne,' and besides that, the 32-year-old also won an Oscar for Best Original Song, and was nominated for Best Actress for her role in 'A Star Is Born,' at the Academy Awards. Her total awards tally is up to nine Grammys till now and yet one does find it hard to believe that the popular singer could have ever been in the red.
The singer herself had a hard time believing it.
The singer-actress whose real name is Stefani Germanotta, made waves in the music industry with her 2008 debut album 'The Fame.' Ever since, the New York native has sold more than 11 million albums.
However, the 'Mother Monster' as she was called, went bankrupt after 'The Monster Ball.'
"I actually went bankrupt after the first extension of The Monster Ball," she told the Financial Times, referring to her second worldwide concert tour, which ran from 2009 to 2011. “And it was funny because I didn’t know! And I remember I called everybody and said, ‘Why is everyone saying I have no money? This is ridiculous, I have five No. 1 singles.’ And they said, ‘Well, you’re $3 million in debt."
That did not deter Lady Gaga who was able to get out of the situation because of her immense popularity. According to Forbes, Gaga had already earned $50 million in July 2018.
Telling the publication that pursuing music has never been about the money, she said: "The beauty for me about being an artist is that the dream will never die, because I’m not obsessed with material things and don’t care about the money and don’t care about the attention of the public, but only the love of my fans, so for me it’s about how much more devoted, how much better an artist can I become."
In short, she added, "It’s honestly true that money means nothing to me."

People on the Left:
“Trump went bankrupt! He’s an idiot!”
“Lady Gaga went bankrupt! And she bounced right back! She is so awesome!!”
Lady Gaga got out of her financial jam by expanding her music repertoire. It included a very successful collaboration with one Tony Bennett.
Lady Caca’s songs actually sound a LOT better when they they feature the la la la dog. :P https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40-ifPdOAOQ
She should write a book. She could title it “The Art of the Comeback”. :)
That duo album is simply wonderful.
Her “persona” is that of a mindless singer. In reality, everything I’ve read about her off stage life indicates she is a decent person.
Capital idea!
It takes work and talent to make that much, then go bankrupt.
I’ve heard similar. She is certainly talented.
Is that Lady Gaga’s impression of Democrat Peter Buttgiggle?
I don't think so. It looks like she's kissing Oscar's FACE.
Lady Gaga, tool for the Left.
That’s nothing. Billy Joel had $90 million stolen from him by his brother-in-law manager. And that’s in 1989 dollars!
Lady Gaga seems like the tallest person in that photo. I thought she was about 5 feet tall?
she staged a protest outside Trump Tower.
“Her “persona” is that of a mindless singer. In reality, everything I’ve read about her off stage life indicates she is a decent person.”
What do you think about her fake cannabalism and other occultic crap?
