It was Saturday morning. I was home watching MTV. I’m not sure what show I was watching, but new videos were being shown. They all seemed a little too boring. …then it happened, a new artist was introduced. Her name was Lady Gaga and the song was called Just Dance. The song and video were completely original – great beat, fresh lyrics and the singer had an unusual and memorable voice. Lots of mirrors balls and poses were also a good sign! At 10 seconds into watching the video, I realized that Lady Gaga would be the next great pop icon. I compared the song to Madonna’s Everybody. I even blogged about it – the post now serves as proof of my prediction. Admittedly I should have been more sure of myself and not used the word ‘perhaps’ – you’ll be pleased to know that ‘perhaps’ has been removed from my vocabulary.

Lady Gaga has since just about taken over the world. It is now Feb 2010, and I start a new blog dedicated to Lady Gaga called Monster Plan. Monster Plan is not a news site. Monster Plan is a blog by a fan, reflecting on being a Lady Gaga fan and providing social commentary. Enjoy!
