Before She Was Lady Gaga, She Was Stefani Germanotta
Born Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, she is best known by her stage name – Lady Gaga. Below is footage of then Stefani Germanotta performing live at NYU in 2005. In the video, she performs two songs that she composed – singing and playing the piano on stage. She has a great voice, so that is […]
Restaurant Review – The Melting Pot
‘Tis the Season for Family, Friends and Fondue! The Melting Pot is one of my favorite restaurants to visit for celebrations of all sorts!

Spielberg no longer directing ‘Harvey’

I don’t think it ever pays off to take a role what was done perfectly by an actor before, especially one […]
