Lifetime is developing Fame Monster: The Lady Gaga Story, a biopic of the famous pop star. The project, named after Gaga’s 2009 EP, is being written by Norman Snider (Casino Jack) based on Maureen Callahan’s 2010 book Poker Face: The Rise And Rise Of Lady Gaga, with Ilene Kahn Power (Lifetime’s Who Is Clark Rockefeller?) executive producing. Lady Gaga is not involved. Fame Monster chronicles the life of Stefani Germanotta, who started her musical career as a rocker and later was transformed into pop mega star Lady Gaga. The project has been heating up at the cable network and could get a green light soon. Gaga shot to stardom with her debut studio album, The Fame, in 2008, and has been making headlines as much for her music as she has for her outrageous outfits.
TV Editor Nellie Andreeva - tip her here.


I just puked in my mouth.
Will be interesting if they explore how she (GAGA) copied the image of Lina Morgana????
this is the most stupid comment that i’ve ever seen. That story wasn’t even confirmed.
Huh? Really? Is this with or without the permission of Lady Gaga? Guessing without – and without, you’ll never see this project happen.
That didn’t stop their J.K. Rowling biopic.
Does anyone care anymore?
I’m sick of her.
Lifetime? Isn’t this more of a Logo project? There, I said it.
Why would you do a biopic on an artist thats been around for barely 3 years?
So Lifetime branching into the fantasy genre. Look out Syfy!
Celebrities aren’t interesting anymore. You went from World War 2 and having a bunch of them inlisting and really interesting stories from their own lives like Lance Henriksen didn’t know to read and ran away from home and traveled the seas, to ‘I want to be famous so I’ll dress up like a freak’.
Sad.
I’m a huge fan, and can still admit this is a moronic idea. No way this won’t be terrible.
Mischa Barton, Kat Dennings, Blake Lively, Leighton Meester or Evan Rachel Wood as Lady Gaga
I hope they include Lady Gaga in the sequel as a singer with dark connections to the villains. With her futuristic music and style, she would fit right in.
I’d like to see Kirk, Spock and McCoy go undercover to a techno concert of hers on a distant planet which is raided by many henchmen who have a thunderous phaser fight with them.
Gonna be hard to pull of the drug use and bisexual antics Gaga is ( openly) known for.
I saw a casting notice for this the other day:
“[ STEFANI GERMANOTTA (LADY GAGA) ]
is a bright rebellious Catholic school girl who dreams of fame. The story covers her from age 16 to 22. When we first meet her she is a dark haired, off beat, very talented and intensely ambitious teen. She comes from a Italian/American well off, close knit, Upper West Side NYC family. She never felt she ‘fit in’ with her fellow students in high school and was disappointed when her college experience at NYU didn’t meet her expectations. So, with her parent’s reluctant permission at 19, she drops out and moves downtown to the Lower East Side where the artists are. Independent and strong willed, Stefani learns she must be something more than a talented young girl and to really stand out, she must change. The story covers the ups and downs of her amazing rise and eventually to her transformation to Lady GAGA. We are seeking an actress who can physically resemble Lady GAGA (see photo) and who can believably span ages 16 to 22. Singing is preferred but not required.”
Thanks for the whole bio…
ugh…totally sick of her theatrical-distractions.
Just when you think Lifetime movies can’t get any worse! This feels like a retro MOW from the mid 90′s… With no music to boot! When is Lifetime going to start making quality films? Whoever thought of this one should be fired… And when the ratings tank, she probably will. What’s next: Amy Winehouse?
Lady Gaga is such an amazing pop artist and she always make room for the future pop artist to do their thing such as Jessica Ferguson with her song “Go” and Selena Gomez with her song “Who Says”.
Such bickering. Personally? I say go for it, and NYC’s own Lauren Francesca should play Gaga, no question.
