Happy 100

Well readers, this is our 100th post! To be honest, we were not sure how long this blog was going to last. It was meant to just be a little thing we did for fun, and if we didn't have a lot of readers, then it was no big deal. Well, you all have really kept us going for the past 100 posts. We appreciate the feedback we get from you, and the interest you take in what we have to say! I feel like we've all been through so much together, even though we don't know most of you. We sincerely hope you continue to check out what we have to say, and that you pass the blog along to other people, so we can keep this going for a few hundred more posts! Thank you all so much!

Along with a huge thank you to all - our friends and loyal readers, we figured it would be appropriate to give Gaga a shoutout too! As you may have noticed, we are die hard Lady Gaga fans and several of our previous posts have been about her; so why not make the 100^th post about her too?

We have compiled a list of the top 10 reasons why we love our Mother Monster, Lady Gaga.

1. Lady Gaga is a Great performer – As the music industry is currently going through a stage of autotune and backup dancers as a saving grace, Gaga doesn’t need any of that. Though her dancers are fierce, she is perfectly capable of getting on stage and belting it out without digital help or dancers. She is well-trained to sing live and give it her all while dancing. She puts on over-the-top shows but does it modestly.
2. Lady Gaga is an activist – We all saw her arrive to the MTV Music awards with ex-military men and women on her surprisingly tan arm. She graced the stage in her McQueen original to educate audiences about Don’t Ask Don’t Tell. She continues to fight for the rights of the LBGT community and even the lives of homeless teens. And let’s not forget she donated generous proceeds to victims of the earthquake in Haiti. We’re sure there is more generosity on the way.
3. Lady Gaga is inspirational – From song lyrics, to album titles, to answers to interview questions, she encourages fans and others to love themselves no matter what! We were “Born this way!”
4. Lady Gaga is a business woman – She is only 24 years old and she has created a fashion empire, she is Polaroid’s creative director and she is the brains behind the visions of her concert tours, appearances and just about everything else she does. Gaga has a creative team, but lots of it stems from her tiny little, brilliant business-minded head. She also recently signed a perfume deal and talks of a sunglasses line could be in the future.
5. Lady Gaga gives back – Not only does she give to charity but she is also generous in the way of helping dear friends. Gaga has brought along with her Semi Precious Weapons for her Monster Ball Tours. Back in the day, Lady Gaga opened for them. But now that gaga has made it to the big leagues, she is sharing the wealth of the rock star life by bringing them along. Dj Lady Starlight is getting in on the action too! She is a hip NY Dj who helped Gaga create her image and is now sippin on Jack Daniels in front of millions of screaming little monsters and loving it!
6. Lady Gaga is a fashion icon – Seriously, this one is self explanatory. From Kermit costumes to meat dresses, there is nothing Gaga won’t wear and not make it look out of this world fabulous!
7. Lady Gaga flipped the script on music – In 2008 Gaga burst onto the scene with pop, dance hits like ‘Just Dance’ and ‘Pokerface’. A few years later, she is still at it with tracks like ‘Bad Romance’ and ‘Telephone’ but with deeper songs like ‘Alejandro’ and ‘Speechless’ she makes audiences think. Not to mention, she is making fellow artists in the industry step their game up. Remember when X-tina tried to make a comeback as the off brand Gaga and failed? Well, yea..point proven.
8. Lady Gaga knows how to party – As Michigan natives, we have both seen Gaga perform in Detroit and both times she has mentioned how Detroit Monsters like to party with a Bud Light in one hand and a cig in the other. This is very much true, btw. Other than that, Gaga has been known to buy up the bar for fans and drunkenly scream at baseball games. We love to party and we love that Lady Gaga loves to party!
9. Lady Gaga is modest – Deep down she knows she’s the shit but doesn’t go parading around with a big head like some of these other divas. She sheds tears of joy whenever she wins an award or is congratulated for her efforts and greatness. She has power, but uses it for good rather than evil. Gaga is a woman of character
10. Lady Gaga loves us – First of all, there are not many artists who have a crazy big following like she does. Thus, it was only fitting that we have a name – Little Monsters. She signs autographs, she parties with us, she even brings us baskets of muffins when we wait in line for hours to see her. Oh! And she follows a lot of us back on twitter. Gaga lives for her fans. As she inspires us, we inspire her to get better every day.

Thanks again! We love our readers and we love you, Lady Gaga!

Love, Justin and Jessica
