Lady Gaga sweeps awards in England
Lady Gaga sweeps awards in England
Flamboyant chanteuse Lady Gaga swept the U.K.'s Brit Awards Tuesday, winning three categories.
Gaga collected awards for best international female artist, best international breakthrough act and best international album for "The Fame," and performed at the ceremony wearing a towering white wig and lace veil — complete with ornate lace eyebrows.
The awards are the British equivalent of the Grammys, with most winners selected by a vote of more than 1,000 industry members.
U.S. rapper Jay-Z also claimed an award, for best international male, during a ceremony at London Earl's Court arena. Other international nominees had included Bruce Springsteen, Eminem, Jay-Z, Michael Buble and Shakira.
British boy band JLS claimed an award for best domestic breakthrough act, while recently split rockers Oasis won a one-off prize when their "(What's The Story) Morning Glory?" was named best British album of the last 30 years. Kasabian were named best British band.
Prince Harry addressed the ceremony in a recorded video message, giving the show — which has sometimes taken a raucous turn in the past — a royal stamp of approval.
Harry, third in line to the British crown, praised the awards as a celebration of "all that is totally wonderful and unique about British music."

Of course Lady Gaga would get an award for best international female artist! She is an amazing person with a very creative side, which most likely she spends everyday to the fullest trying new things. And doing what she loves and likes to do.
I love her ablum fame! She looks really pretty in her laced eyelashes. She is known for her crazy fashion. I can also not believe that she won in three catagories.
That is so cool that she was wearing lace eyebrows. That is cool and she won in three categories. I love her album the fame!
The only reason she won thos stupid awords was becouse she was in englind. She fits in over there. Everyone is fugly over there. Shes a freake, her parents should have put her down when they had the chance.
Lady Gaga's music reaches out to people and she can be her own person. I think that she is her own preson and does not let any one tell her how she needs to be. Lady gaga makes people want to dance and have fun and not to care about other people say. I think that Lady Gaga is an amazing singer and a great dancer. I love Lady Gaga's clothes and Lady Gaga's stile.
Gaga's music reaches mass of audience around the world. Her music is not censored and controlled by the government. Gaga has the freedom to sing whatever she likes. Her customs are over the top because she can be herself. She has freedom of speech. Unlike Chinese musicians, their music (lyrics) and dress code often censored by the government. Therefore, can't truly express and be themselves. In all, this is very much relates to our Constitution of Freedom of speech.
She deserves the award but I think the old artists should come back and win as many awards as they used to and it's great she met the queen.
One thing that i've always wanted to do is meat the Queen of Englend so i think that lady gaga is soo lucky and should apreatiatiat what she gets
that is a good thing for lady gaga that means that she is liked alot around thw world as a singer and a person . i love the way she dresses in all of the different out fits that she has my favorit is the green one that she wore on the grames when her and eliton john where on stage singer together
Lady Gaga deserves the awards she got. She got them because we voted for her. Many people may not have agreed with the decisions but obviously shes good if all those people voted for her. Gaga is amazing. Justin Bieber may have topped her on you tube but when she hits the stage she definitely tops Bieber. No offense to Bieber fans but Gaga, in my opinion is way better. Congratulations Lady Gaga!
