New York, Mar 19 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Lady Gaga’s former producer has claimed that he was instrumental in making her a star, but he didn’t reap the benefits of her success, so he has sued her for $30 million. Rob Fusari has filed a lawsuit in the New York State Supreme Court, on Wednesday in which he claims that he was instrumental in fine-tuning Lady Gaga’s talent and make her a musical sensation. He even attributed her current name ‘Lady Gaga’ to himself, and said that when he met her then she was just a singer and was named Stefani Germanotta.
He claims that he transformed her into the pop sensation, but when their romance fizzed out, then Rob Fusari was shown the door, and he was even not paid the royalties on the music sales, and his producers fees were also not honored in a proper manner.”All business is personal. When those personal relationships evolve into romantic entanglements, any corresponding business relationship usually follows the same trajectory so that when one crashes they all burn. That is what happened here,” the lawsuit said.
Lady Gaga is well known for her bizarre outfits, and even outrageous performances. She has sold over 10 million albums worldwide, and has also won the Grammy Award twice.
