LISTEN : Even MORE Unreleased Lady Gaga
The track, 'Fancy Pants' Features Lady Starlight and is a funk driven track produced in 2007.
Lady Starlight (born Colleen Martin, December 23rd, 1975) is an American rock'n roll DJ, go-go dancer, fashion stylist, writer and performance artist based in New York City's Lower East Side. She is also a MAC PRO make-up artist for MAC Cosmetics. Best known for being Grammy nominated pop star Lady GaGa's original performance partner and DJ. In 2008, Lady Starlight was voted "Best Female Hard Rock DJ 2008" by The L Magazine....
In early 2007, Lady Starlight began collaborating with the similarly named and as yet undiscovered pop star Lady GaGa, and helped create her onstage fashions. The pair began playing gigs at downtown club venues like Mercury Lounge, The Bitter End, and Rockwood Music Hall, with their live performance art piece, "Lady GaGa and The Starlight Revue." Billed as "The Ultimate Pop Burlesque RockShow", their act was a low-fi tribute to 1970's variety acts which featured Lady GaGa on synth, Lady Starlight spinning beats, choreographed go-go moves, shiny disco balls, and hairspray, lit on fire and sprayed into the audience. Lady Gaga credits Lady Starlight for her interest in performance as art. "I actually never really thought of it like that [performance art] until I started working with Lady Starlight" Lady GaGa said of her career beginnings. "One day she [Lady Starlight] was like 'It’s not really a concert and it’s not really a show. It’s performance art. What you’re doing is not just singing…it’s art.' And once she pointed out to me what I was already doing I just started analyzing that more and researching to try to take it in a different direction. And that’s really what we did."
