After having had huge success around the world with her debut single "Just Dance", her debut album "The Fame" was released in the August of 2008. Inside the album booklet, she gave thanks to Andy Warhol, David Bowie, Prince, Madonna, and Chanel - presumably her "inspirations".
However, 7 months later, in April 2009 in an interview on the UK TV show "Friday Night With Jonathan Ross", when asked about her looks & style Lady Gaga rather arrogantly declared that she was "inspired by no-one".
Of course, in those intervening 7 months, Lady Gaga had had HUGE success with "The Fame", and also her second single "Poker Face". It seems that perhaps her sudden rise to fame had already started to go to her head, and she was already forgetting things she had previously said or that had been printed.
And so, the contradictions began.....
