an indenity could come from the passion of an artist, or from a remake of an older artist. Lady GAGA is a perfect example of an modern artist who uses her idenity to appeal to her target audience and many many more.
Lady GAGA is famously known for her continous of wacky outfits which has continously won her a number of awards for music and fashion alike. However though, could it be that Lady GAGA's wacky style could be a cover up? A way of hiding away the true Lady GAGA. With extreme form of indenitys like this, it's always questioned whether the arist is trying to hide from the public, or if they're really just trying to prove a point.
