2006年，自纽约大学辍学之后，与Interscope Records签约成为作曲人。她初踏入业界是纯粹担任幕后作曲者，曾为布兰妮、菲姬、小野猫、街头顽童合唱团和阿肯等知名歌手作曲。同时，她开始在纽约俱乐部演奏。当阿肯发现Gaga同时具有幕前演唱的实力后，他签约Gaga到自己的唱片公司Kon Live Distribution旗下，自此她开始筹备首张个人专辑。
2008年，Gaga开始和一个名为「Haus of GaGa」的集团合作，同时发佈了自己的首张个人专辑《超人气》，她自己解释此专辑为「有关让所有人都能感觉到如何着名。」这张专辑在英国和加拿大等国家取得巨大成功，同时取得评论界的一致好评。迄今为止这张专辑催生了全球性的第一单曲《舞力全开》（获得第51届葛莱美奖最佳舞曲提名）以及《扑克脸》，两首歌曲均登上告示牌单曲榜冠军。
Gaga受到很多时尚的影响，她挑衅意味的时装风格受到好评，同时亦对很多名流有所影响。2009年她在澳门接受香港TVB《娱乐新闻报导》的VJ张允芝採访时表示，自己的时尚概念来自朋友们和同性恋者（my friends and gays）。音乐上，她受到了大卫·鲍伊和皇后乐队的启发，同时也受到流行歌手如玛丹娜、 克里斯蒂娜·阿奎莱拉和麦可·杰克森的影响。
