Yet another piece of fine journalism here in Korea.

Lady Gaga is a Yank.

Not an Aussie.

I recommend people contact the company so that they can correct their
mistake.

And be send to give them the link to this thread so that they know and can see that errors do get caught and discussed on the internet.

Cool

I had no idea who she was until Faith No more covered a bit of "Poker Face" at the Download Festival...

Ahh, so THAT'S who's song I hear every time I go out.

She's unique and I kind of like her style but I doubt she's the next Madonna or anybody important.

Like most of the American native English teachers here in Korea, she is a European-American, which is an American of European ancestry.

Most Americans are European-Americans. Notice how most Americans have European last names. That's because they or their ancestors came from Europe.
