All the world's a stage for the artist that is Lady Gaga. She's been seen in everything from a firework-shooting bustier to bubbles (you saw that RollingStone cover?) While most of her outfits that would be hard to pull off on anyone else - Gaga manages to look effortless. So whether you are gaga for Gaga or not, you have to appreciate her bold tenacity. I mean, she went to a press conference last week wearing a full-on super-hero-esque black face mask and still had the foreign press eating at her feet! We call this the Gaga Effect.

However, while she clearly has her own sense of style, every artist needs their muses. Ever wondered where Lady Gaga draws her style inspirations? We took a couple guesses below. What do you think?
The Phantom of the Opera
Skintight black and that iconic stage mask (all disco-balled-out.)

Minnie Mouse
Bringing that cutesy Disney Bow back- check out that hair extension.

Little Red Riding Hood
Luckily she's got security to keep the wolves at bay.
Cousin Itt
Lady Gaga manages to look hot in nearly anything - but it's amazing how she pulled off a dress made entirely of HAIR!!!
On further inspection, we thought maybe she could have gotten Blonde inspiration from this harmless chap below?
