The long-awaited Terry Richardson and Lady Gaga book titled ‘GAGA’ has been released, but reviews are mixed.

Gaga invited celebrity photographer Terry Richardson to follow her for 10 months photographing every aspect of her life. Although some of the pictures are less than glamorous, they show a part of the artist’s life that many fans are unaware of.
Gaga and Richardson reportedly had to sift through more than 100,000 pictures in order to effectively represent all of the highs and lows of the star’s life. Normally Lady Gaga tries to keep a ‘superhuman’ image, but in this tell-all photo-biography a very intimate side of the singer is exposed. From yoga in her bra to red carpet events in her egg, no moment was left un-photographed.

Lady Gaga is one of the most famous celebrities in the world, but it appears that her book is far less popular; it has already been discounted 34% on Amazon.com. Furthermore the project has been receiving harsh criticisms since its early stages, and many critics have accused Gaga of copying Madge’s book ‘SEX’ released in the mid 90’s.
Although the reviews are mixed, chances are that this project will be a huge success for both Gaga and Richardson and buzz about the book will continue; especially among those of us that are curious to see what a meat dress does to furniture.
The book is available online or at bookstores throughout Canada.
