Lady Gaga Wins Three Grammys

Last night’s Grammy Award show was full of unexpected wins, but it was no surprise when Lady Gaga took home three top honors.

Never one to pass up making an unforgettable entrance, the provocative star was carried down the red carpet in what looked like a space-age egg. From there, the Italian-American singer set the tone for a night of memorable performances.

Lady Gaga dropped jaws with a futuristic rendition of her new single “Born this Way.” The 24-year-old New Yorker was herself born to Italian parents, raised Roman Catholic, and proud of her heritage. While last night's routines were ultramodern, the singer is known for paying homage to her roots with classic Italian-inspired music videos.

Lady Gaga, full name Joanne Stefani Germanotta, won three Grammys, including the top prize of 'Best Pop Album' for The Fame Monster. But even with her own huge international fame, Gaga has never forgotten her past.
