Why Gaga Is The Best
More and more, it’s becoming clear that of all the young divas — Beyonce, Rihanna, Katy Perry, Adele — that Lady Gaga is the most wide-ranging. She can sing jazz — and do the Super Bowl. She can sing “The Sound of Music” at the Oscars — and rap credibly. In this new interview, she explains why she veered into jazz with Tony Bennett. ““My audience went, ‘Wait, why is she singing jazz? What’s going on?’ And then they went, ‘Oh, because she can. Because she loves it.’ And jazz, a music invented by the African-American community, is the greatest art form, I believe, to have ever come out of this country.†Smart cookie.
