Chapter 1: Email Received

~STEFANI'S POV (throughout the story)

It has been almost half a year since I wrote and recorded demos and last month, I sent my demos to Interscope Records. I feel so nervous that they might not like it but what I really feel is excitement because the demos I burned in that CD was perfect, I mean, for my opinion, as a matter of fact, those songs I wrote are still stuck on my head up to now. I checked my drawer and saw the song list that I included in my demo CD.

1. Bad Romance

2. Manicure

3. Born This Way

4. Red and Blue

5. Just Dance

6. So Happy I Could Die

7. Eh Eh

8. Aura

9. Vanity

10. Alejandro

11. Poker Face

12. Fountain of Truth

13. Sexy Ugly

I really love music and art and everything. I'm kind of obsessed with it, actually.

I've been checking my mail time after time ever since waiting for Interscope's email and then one night I saw a mail from them.

From: Interscope Records

To: stefanigermanotta@gmail.com

Subject: Demo CD Feedback

I took a deep breathe and prayed before I proceed reading the message.

"Good day Ms. Germanotta, we've received your demo CD and our manager really appreciated your songs. We will sponsor your cruise ticket to New York City and we'll send it to your address by the end of the month. Thank you and good luck...."

Fuck, is this real life? I couldn't help it! I screamed out of joy and jumped over the bed celebrating. Soon after, I sat in front of my electric piano and tried to make another song. I feel like making a new one that very moment. I live for the fame, for the applause of the people, for the flashes of the camera! Gaaah, I can't wait to go to NYC!!

Days passed by, I made three songs before the end of the month came. Specifically they are Paparazzi, slow upbeat about being a martyr of fame, another is The Fame, obviously about fame and lastly, Telephone which I wrote when Interscope called me telling me that they would ask me to sing in front of the directors and producers in order to help me build my career. This is sort of a fucking thing to me.

It was past twelve in the afternoon when a mail man came by with an envelope. I took it and I screamed the moment I saw what's inside it, apparently, I kinda startled the mail man.

"Holy fuck!!!!" I screamed.

*startled face* mailman.

"Cruise ticket to fucking New York!!!" I screamed again and jumped and hugged the mailman unconsciously.

"I will never forget you Mr. Mailman! I love you! Wah!" I told the old mail man and walked inside my apartment. I had a glimpse of his face, he was bothered and curious about my happiness but he'll understand me someday.

I dropped myself onto my bed and hugged the envelope with joy.

"This is fucking real. I'm gonna be a star. I'm gonna make fucking songs and slay my fans' life. Shit."

I told myself. After recovering from too much ecstasy, I sat down and viewed the ticket again.

Cruise Ticket...address... Departure date: 09/13 time: 13:00... And the ship's name. I looked at the envelope and I saw a brochure, it was the a brochure of the cruise ship. I flipped it and viewed the ship's amenities, facilities, rooms and so on. It was so high class! I'm gonna meet rich and well-mannered people on the ship, and one day, when I'm already famous, they'll realize, "I was on the same ship with Lady Gaga."

I can't wait until it's September 13 already! I think I'm gonna faint.

I kept the ticket on my drawer and opened my laptop to check my twitter. 254 followers, ugh, I had 260 yesterday. I hate unfollowers.

"Interscope emailed me! I'm going to fucking Hollywood!!!"

I tweeted and exchanged tweets my lovely friend slash girlfriend slash make up artist slash bar buddy, Tara.

TaraSavelo

"@StefGermanotta omfg congrats! Im so happy for you!!"

StefGermanotta

"@TaraSavelo I guess I have to change my username within the next days"

TaraSavelo

"@StefGermanotta take me with you! What will your username be?"

StefGermanotta

"@TaraSavelo ladygaga is my username -alien voice-"

I soon changed my username to @ladygaga. My friends use to call me Gaga, so yeah, and I logged out.
