We’ve featured — and poked fun at — Lady Gaga here at nuTsie in the past.

Turns out before she was Gaga she was Stefani Germanotta, yet another talented but painfully earnest young singer/songwriter.  Here she is performing at a dorm at NYU just a few years ago — little did the audience know she was just biding her undergrad time until fully prepared to perpetrate her SUPER FREAKY alter ego on the world.

Pretty amazing transformation if you stop to think about it.
