<\/a><\/p>\nIt marks a transformation in the flamboyant singer\u2019s career from electro pop and dance music to a more grown-up, classical style. The album is due for release on September 23rd<\/sup> and will feature a mix of new songs from the duo and remakes of old classics from the likes of Cole Porter and Irving Berlin.<\/p>\n Gaga and Bennett first collaborated in 2011 on \u2018Lady is a Tramp\u2019 which went on to feature on his Duets album. They may seem like an unlikely coupling but the duo exude a unique chemistry and are now firm friends, often seen out together. Gaga\u2019s voice is also exceptional singing jazz, which proves she has the talent to adapt to any musical style.<\/p>\n Despite her 27 million album sales, 5 Grammy Awards, 13 MTV Awards and her inauguration in 2014 as \u201cone of the best-selling singers of all time\u201d, Gaga was nervous about recording with him<\/em>.<\/p>\n “I was so nervous to go into the studio with Bennett, I just wanted him to hear I have an authentic jazz voice,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n The songs were recorded live with a full band and the album is tipped to be another Gaga hit making machine.<\/p>\n To date she has had four top selling albums and has sold 125 million copies of her tracks worldwide.<\/p>\n At only 28 years old, Lady Gaga has the potential to join the ranks of The Beatles and Elvis Presley with over 500m record sales.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n So why the Jazz Reinvention?<\/p>\n Like her musical idol, Madonna,(\u201cThere is really no one that is a more adoring and loving Madonna fan than me,\u201d she admits) Gaga is constantly searching for ways to reinvent herself. Not only to keep her adoring fans that she calls \u2018the Little Monsters\u2019 perpetually entertained but for her own personal goals. She has been described by friends as \u201ca zany and highly ambitious character that needs to constantly evolve\u201d.<\/p>\n She has already taken on dance and pop music through her first studio album \u2018Fame\u2019 and \u2018Fame Monster\u2019, rock and metal styles were experimented with through her third album \u2018Born This Way\u2019 – so her foray into Jazz is just a natural progression of her showing the world the whole spectrum of her musical talents.<\/p>\n Despite \u2018Cheek to Cheek\u2019 not even being released, Tony Bennett has already indicated there is a likely possibility of another follow-up Jazz album with Gaga to come next year.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We hope the singer has time\u2026<\/p>\n There is already talk of another self-penned Lady Gaga studio album appearing next year and she has also been confirmed as being the first person to ever perform from space. Yes space. Gaga is flying on the Virgin Galactic Flight to beam her performance to the Zero G Colony festival held in New Mexico in early 2015. Other passengers are having to fork out the $250,000 seat ticket on Richard Branson\u2019s shuttle, while Gaga gets hers in exchange for a song!<\/p>\n If Internet rumours are to be believed, the \u201cMarry the Night\u201d singer may even be marrying her long-term boyfriend \u2018Chicago Fire\u2019 star Taylor Kinney on the flight. Apart from her musical performance, apparently Gaga wants the trip to be more memorable.<\/p>\n “Gaga and Taylor want to make a pledge for life, and think the space flight is too big an opportunity to pass up. It would be typical of her to have the least conventional ‘wedding’ ever,” a source close to the singer told the British newspaper The Daily Star.<\/p>\n Watch this space for reports from space next year.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n HOW THE TALENT QUEEN EMERGED<\/p>\n March 28 1986 – Born Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta<\/p>\n 1990 \u2013 Aged only 4 young Stefani started playing the piano<\/p>\n 1999 \u2013 She wrote her first piano ballad, aged 13<\/p>\n 2003 \u2013 Stef as she was then known attended New York music theatre school CAP21<\/p>\n 2005 \u2013 Dropped out of school to form rock band SGBand with high school friends<\/p>\n 2006 \u2013 She met and started dating music producer Rob Fusari who helped create the Lady Gaga name<\/p>\n September 2006 \u2013 Signed and subsequently dropped by LA Reid\u2019s Def Jam label after three months<\/p>\n 2007 \u2013 Utterly heartbroken she started working as a go-go dancer in New York.
