Lady Gaga hit the scene last year and has since then become one of the most well names in the music industry with big hits like "Poker Face", "Just Dance", and "Paparazzi."
Kanye West has recently been in the tabloids with his stunt he did on the MTV Music Awards. Taylor Swift was on stage accepting her award when Kanye came up and interrupted her speech by taking the mic out of her hands and saying "Beyonce had the best video of the year." Kanye has been very criticized about what he did and being behind alot of jokes lately, He then went on Jay Leno and said he was sorry and would then go perform with Jay-Z and Rihanna. Lady Gaga also has had some bad publicity when a report came out of her being a hermaphrodite. Whether its true or not she still happens to have one of the biggest years than anyone has had in years. She also had a controversial performance at the MTV awards that some people considered offensive or graphic.(Video can be seen below)
