Read my speech on Lady Gaga?

[JollyAmbassador177]

Lady Gaga is an American pop singer-songwriter who was born on Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta on March 28, 1986 in New York City. She was inspired by musical artists such as David Bowie, Elton John, Queen Michael Jackson, Madonna, Amy Winehouse and many more. She is well known for her outrageous sense of style in fashion, stage performances, and music videos. However, this did not come easily for her. She had to put a lot of effort, practice, and dedication into her music career. She started playing piano at just 4 years old and writing piano ballads as a young teenager. Additionally, when Lady Gaga was just 11 years old, she attended Covent of the Sacred Heart, a private girls only Roman Catholic school. At 17, Gaga was one of 20 people worldwide to gain acceptance into the Tisch School of the Arts at NYU. There she studied music composition and improved her songwriting skills. However, by the second semester of her sophomore year, she decided to withdraw in order to pursue her music career. Not too long afterwards, Gaga was signed to Streamline Records and there she met Akon. The rapper Akon recognized Gaga’s vocal abilities and talents and immediately signed her to his own label, Kon Live Distribution.
Lady Gaga has released three music albums since she started her music career. She has released Red and Blue, The Fame, and The Fame Monster. Also, she is working on an album that is called Born This Way, which is scheduled to release on May 23, 2011. Her second album, The Fame was wildly successful internationally and nationally. This album reached number one on the record charts of 6 countries, has won its spot in many top ten lists worldwide, come in at number two on the Billboard 200 US chart, and topped many other charts as well. Her next album, The Fame Monster achieved similar success. As I had already mentioned, Born This Way has not yet been released but will probably be as successful or even more than her other albums because her song Born This Way has already been a worldwide hit. It has achieved the number one spot in many countries already and it is the fastest selling single in iTunes history, selling one million copies in five days.
Lady Gaga’s other achievements include five Grammy awards, 12 Grammy nominations, and two Guiness World Records. She has been named Artist of the Year in 2010 by Billboard because she was the top selling artist of that year. Gaga has been included in Time Magazine’s list of 100 Most Influential People in the World and Forbes Magazines’ list of the 100 Most Powerful and Influential Celebrities of the World. Furthermore, in March of the year 2011, Lady Gaga hit 9 million followers on twitter, which makes her the most followed person ever on twitter. In addition, her music videos have been wildly popular on YouTube. Videos such as Just Dance and Alejandro have had over 100 million views, and Bad Romance has had over 351 million views, making her videos some of the most watched videos in YouTube history. Besides her music career, she also has been an activist for LGBT rights, as well as contributing to many charities and humanitarian works such as the 2010 Haiti Earthquake Relief Fund, the fight against AIDS and HIV, as well as helping to generate money for the Japanese Tsunami Relief efforts. She is only 25 years old and has already achieved such great fame and success. We can expect to see more from her in the years to come.

Can you tell me what you think of my speech and tell me if I could improve on anything?
Should I include in text citations?

It's all great! Really good! Just the beginning: "Lady Gaga is an American pop singer-songwriter who was born "ON" Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta." And indent, teachers don't like a run on paragraph. LoL just fix that and it will be perfect! I'm sure it was an honest mistake. Also don't skip from one thing to another too soon. It may confuse readers.

P.S: Don't say you used Wikipedia say you get her biography

Soem teachers dont allow it.
