When Lady Gaga, whose real name is Stefani Germanotta, was a student at New York University (NYU), some of her classmates didn’t believe she would ever become famous.
They created a private Facebook group called “Stefani Germanotta, you will never be famous” to make fun of her.
Lady Gaga About The Group That Mocked Her Dreams
This group had around 12 members and mocked her dreams of success. However, Gaga didn’t let this bring her down.
She used the negativity as motivation and continued to pursue her dreams.
Lady Gaga recently spoke out about it, saying that the situation is a reminder of why you shouldn’t give up, even when people doubt you or try to discourage you.
She encouraged others to keep going despite what people might say.
Recently, a TikTok video that went viral on September 10 showed the Facebook group’s page and how they insulted her back then.
The video also highlighted how much she has achieved since.
Lady Gaga said,
“It stays with you your whole life. I remember things that bullies said in front of other people, and nobody said anything. Nobody said, ‘Are you OK? Are you fine?’ In fact, if I were to speak up about a bully being mean to me, it would make it worse for me at school. Being bullied has taught me the importance of kindness because it is something that can be fixed.”
It showed a picture of Gaga with dark hair and a black X on her face, which was the group’s cover photo.
Then, it showed her proudly holding an Oscar and listed some of her many accomplishments, including 13 Grammy Awards, two Golden Globes, and 18 MTV Video Music Awards.
Even though her classmates once doubted her, Lady Gaga went on to become a global superstar, proving them wrong in an extraordinary way.
Her story is a powerful example of resilience and staying focused on your goals despite negativity from others.
