Music producer Rob Fusari is suing Lady Gaga for $35 million. This means she’s finally made it, right? Apparently Fusari started working with the Lady in 2006, and, according to the suit, came up with her stage name, co-wrote songs like “Paparazzi” and “Beauty, Dirty, Rich,” and shifted her sound from cheesy piano rock to cheesier dance music. Fusari is claiming that Gaga cut him out of her career - and the lucrative payday that has come along with it - and now wants some of that cash.

Most interestingly, numerous sites are referring to the producer as Gaga’s ex-boyfriend. We checked out pics of Rob Fusari online and have judged him on looks alone, and damn - if this guy is Gaga’s type then we all have a little bit of soul-searching to do. We’re just saying - we never pegged her as being into the mini-mullet and generic hippie necklace type.  [Photo: GettyImages]

Lady Gaga, she of the weird outfits, recently asked 80’s singer Boy George to sign her vagina. The pair met backstage at one of her shows, and Gaga, in her desperate quest to always be the most alternative girl in the room, requested the his John Hancock on her genitals. Sadly, the once-hip pop star has turned into a grandfather, and would not oblige.

“It was very brief when I met her, there were a lot of people in the room, it was all a bit chaotic,” Boy George told British paper The Mirror. “I haven’t been around that kind of circus in years! I was like, ‘Oh my God!’ You know, I’ve been that woman! So it was very interesting to be on the outside looking in. She was very sweet. She asked me to sign her vagina.”

Boy G. signed her hat instead, foiling the Lady’s attempting at alterna-coolness. But for reals, Gaga’s “I’m so weird, look at me!” shtick is tired. We all saw Ally Sheedy in The Breakfast Club…been there, done that. Isn’t the weirdest thing for the singer to do now is just act normal? [Photos: GettyImages]

Lady Gaga touched down in Australia today rocking a look straight from the “Telephone” set. She greeted fans at the Sydney airport with Diet Coke cans in her hair and Chanel shades over her eyes. Logistically she must have had her hair done mid-air, as there’s no way she got that ‘do through airport security. Gaga is never one to shy away from outrageous outfits while flying, but is this look too much, or just her version of travel chic? [Photo: Splash News]

Looks like the grind is getting to Lady Gaga. The singer seemed on the verge of fainting at a recent show in Auckland, New Zealand, barely getting through a show-closing “Bad Romance” full of lackluster miming, frequent trips to the ground and half-hearted attempts at choreography. The tour promoter, claiming she was “tired and dehydrated,” noted she got through the next night just fine. Hopefully she’ll be able to perk up some—Gaga’s got tour dates lined up through September in Australia, Japan, Europe and North America…and only a handful of weeks off. [via PopEater]

Common folk eat up comparisons to their famous look-a-like, but what about celebrities themselves? Via makeup, plastic surgery, and sheer coincidence, duplicates of our beloved stars are running rampant all over Hollywood, or in Lady Gaga’s case, gracing our currency.  Here are 20 of our favorite, unrelated, doppelgangin’ celebs.

We know by now that Lady Gaga is unique, but in an interview with the New York Times Style Magazine that’s well worth reading in its entirety, she radiates more than just unique. Instead she delves into truly bizarre territory. It’s unsurprising but fascinating anyway, and she gets into a lot of detail about her glamorous persona, leaving her old self behind, and how she does it all for her fans. Some of the choicest bits are below.

On who she turns to for support:  ”I have a spiritual guide, not a therapist but someone who in my mind is connected with a higher being, and he helps me a lot. What I like about him is that he doesn’t speak to me like I am a normal person. He understands that I have an eccentric way of life and personality. And he also understands that I am famous, and I appreciate that. He tells me that I no longer serve my life in the normal way that people serve their life, that I must serve the greater good in my service to the universe. And for me, it’s my fans. I only serve my fans.”

More on her love for her fans: “It’s almost like I want to hypnotize them so when they hear my music they love themselves instantly.”

On referring to herself in the third person: “I talk about myself in the third person all the time. I don’t live my life in the way someone like you does. I live my life completely serving only my work and my fans. And that way, I have to think about not what is best for my vagina but what is best for my fans and for me artistically.”

We don’t know what her vagina has to do with it, but we love her anyway!

Lady Gaga showed off her latest fashion casserole outside of the Buddha Bar in London last night, having pre-recorded a performance for the Jonathan Ross show earlier in the day. We’re not sure what to make of this one: the metal frame is a skirt, yeah, but the wire fencing coming out of her radio antenna headgear? The jacket over the underwear? This just seems sloppy compared to Gaga’s lobster mask last weekend. Now that was a concept.

Should Brazil put this little girl’s clothes back on?

I can’t decide: is this the cutest or creepiest thing I’ve seen today? You be the judge. Eight-year-old Brazilian bebê and Lady Gaga wannabe Laura Fontana has just rocked a televised talent show in her native country…maybe we should just chalk this up to cultural differences?

Lady Gaga isn’t getting laid, and is it any wonder, what with the outfits she wears? Honestly, how is anyone able to get close to her vagina when she locks herself up in lace bodysuits and Halloween headdresses? Anyhoots, we thought the Lady was currently bedding her pal Matthew Williams, but apparently she’s claiming to be celibate. “I am alone and miserable … but I like to be alone,” says our heroine, adding, “I, for myself, make the choice to be single at this point in my life because I don’t have the time to get to know anybody. And you know what? It’s OK. Even Lady Gaga can be celibate.”

Er, okay, except that we want Lady Gaga to make a little monster out of somebody. So here are our picks for possible suitors; vote above for who you think should next hop in the sack with the queen of…whatever she’s the queen of.

• John Mayer: Lady Gaga is probably the only person who can teach America’s favorite douchebag a thing or two about a thing or two. One night with her would surely shut him up for good, and remind him that some girls become lovers that turn into superstars.
• Nicki Minaj: She’s hot. She’s bi. So is, apparently, Lady Gaga. They would have LiLo and SamRon beat in the super sexy girl couple category. Please, someone make this happen?
• Taylor Lautner: The actor needs someone to come in and turn his G-Rated world upside down. Plus it would make up for that awful stunt he pulled fake-dating Taylor Swift.
• Kermit the Frog: Miss Piggy may have threatened to take Kermie’s head off, but Lady Gaga actually did it - and then used him as a hat and coat. So why not just up the crazy and take a puppet as a lover?

Lady Gaga wore over 100 hot outfits in 2009, and 2010 is looking to be just as wild. For all the nun habits and mossy monstrosities worn at her concerts in London this weekend, Gaga looked just as outrageous stepping in and out of her hotel. Among our favorites were Friday’s red and black RoboMountie one-piece, the lobster mask she wore to her afterparty at Mr. Chow (glad guest Bruce Springsteen—you read that correctly—was around to enjoy it) and the fringe-festooned golden dress she wore Saturday, suggesting she could always settle for simple glamor if she ever gets tired of the au courant insanity. Not that she is, judging from the black lace we-don’t-know-what she wore to the Mac Viva Glam launch earlier today. See these looks and shots from the concert in the gallery below.
