Since she burst onto the scene in 2008 with her iconic first album “The Fame”, this pop powerhouse is considered one of the bestselling artists ever, having released five solo albums plus collaborations and movie soundtracks.

She made US$3.5 million from her first world tour, The Fame Ball, while her later tours – Born This Way and Monster Ball – earned her US$167 million and US$227 million, respectively.
