Lady GaGa like Madonna and many other artists of Italian origin, have made their way in life, showing talent, courage and much stubbornness. Louise Veronica Ciccone, who in a daring way wanted to be called “Madonna”, born of Italian parents from Abruzzo in the province of L’Aquila, was born in Detroit, Michigan.

The parents had left the charming town of Pacentro, building in U.S.A. a family with eight children. Lady Gaga, pseudonym of Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, also born in the U.S.A. instead it has Sicilian origins of Naso, in the province of Messina.

Madonna and an uphill start

It seems almost a dream to see that photo in which Madonna teenager, excitedly asks for an autograph to “Elvis”, she who strongly desired to become a star. Yet the road was all uphill, and in the late ’70s Veronica Louise moved to New York to work in the dance company, Alvin Ailey, which enters after many auditions. Madonna was not particularly beautiful, she did not have the physique to be a model and nobody recognized her as a particular talent.

His apartment was periodically looted by thieves, to the point that he no longer closed the door and even experienced sexual violence. He had to fight against every prejudice, against a terrible machismo, but with a tenacity that we can not fail to recognize as that of Abruzzo, finally managing to break through. Against the press against respectability, and without relying on powerful men, over time Mrs. Ciccone has broken down every obstacle becoming a star.

Lady GaGa victim of bullying

The path of Lady Gaga, defined as too “ethnic”, ugly, could not be simpler, being unable to assert itself in the world of music. Suffering chronically from fibromyalgia, he has never planted himself. She herself confessed to being the victim of bullying as a young girl. She was mocked and taunted by the big defined nose, the horse teeth and one day she was taken and thrown into a garbage can in general laughter.

She also confessed that on that day the humiliation was terrible and she reacted with a hysterical laugh that she could not stop and so many tears. Even Stefani Germanotta, has known physical violence by a record producer when he was only nineteen years old; something that still remains in the soul. Yet she has not lacked strength, and it is not even difficult to see in her the greatness of the Sicilian people.

Madonna, Grammy and Golden Globe

Madonna that finally in June 1983 exploded with “Holiday”, a captivating piece that, together with “Lucky Star”, imposed it on the charts with stars and stripes; it becomes known with the homonymous album “Madonna”. Even Lady Gaga has imposed itself without focusing on beauty, but on uniqueness and unleashing an incredible tenacity.

Some stars have been asked by the producers to resort to cosmetic surgery to appear less “Mediterranean”; neither of our stars has ever changed those unmistakable somatic features, denying the Sicilian or Abruzzese origins. Being an Italian American from scratch, without a penny and lots of dreams, obviously served to become two stars. It was not easy even to go against any model imposed by society.
