This document discusses how Lady Gaga fits Richard Dyer's star theory across five categories: 1) lasting significance and brand awareness, 2) being a constructed artificial image with a unique style, 3) being a product of the music industry before and after fame, 4) having a unique fashion sense that creates a fan base despite not being easily copied, and 5) representing a "wild child" persona that alters preconceptions of womanhood. The document analyzes aspects of Lady Gaga's career and public image in relation to Dyer's conceptualization of what defines a pop star.
