Lady GAGA Contrary to her outré style, the New York Post described her early look as like "a refugee from Jersey Shore" with "big black hair, heavy eye makeup and tight, revealing clothes." Gaga is a natural brunette; she bleached her hair blonde because she was often mistaken for Amy Winehouse.She often refers to her fans as her 'little monsters' and got a tattoo with that inscription as a tribute.She has another six known tattoos, among them a peace symbol, which was inspired by John Lennon whom she stated was her hero, and a curling German script on her left arm which quotes the poet Rainer Maria Rilke, her favorite philosopher, commenting that his "philosophy of solitude" spoke to her.Toward the end of 2008, comparisons were made between the fashions of Lady Gaga and recording artist Christina Aguilera, noting similarities in their styling, hair, and make-up.Aguilera later said she was "completely unaware of [Gaga]" and "didn't know if it [was] a man or a woman. Lady Gaga cooked herself a "Little Monster" casserole for Thanksgiving, and Tweeted a photograph of herself holding it.
