“Lady Gaga is a complete powerhouse. She’s a once-in-a-lifetime artist who never holds back, and Gaga Chromatica Ball puts her endless list of talents on full display,” said Nina Rosenstein, EVP of HBO Programming, Late Night & Specials. “We’re thrilled to partner with her once again for this breathtaking concert special.”
Academy Award and 13-time GRAMMY-winner Lady Gaga (upcoming Joker: Folie à Deux) is a one-of-a-kind artist and performer. She has amassed an outstanding 87 million global album sales, 96 billion streams, and 516 million in song consumption, making her one of the best-selling musicians of all time.
Her most recent pop album, Chromatica, marked her sixth consecutive #1 album on the Billboard 200 chart, making her the first female artist to do so over a ten-year period (2011-2020). Her collaboration with Ariana Grande for “Rain On Me” marked the biggest Spotify debut of 2020, reaching #1 on the Global and U.S. Spotify charts and becoming one of the many smash hits that fans have come to expect from the icon.
In 2023, her debut single, “Just Dance,” became her third diamond-certified single by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), joining previously certified “Bad Romance” and “Poker Face,” indicating 10 million or more units sold. Her debut album, The Fame, is the longest-running #1 album on the Billboard Dance/Electronic chart of all time, with over 175 non-consecutive weeks to date.
The album ranks #12 on Billboard’s Top 200 Albums of All Time chart and is the 6th longest-charting album by a female singer on the chart, with 319 weeks. Notably, it features multi-platinum singles “Paparazzi” (5x platinum) and “LoveGame” (triple platinum).
In 2018, she won an Academy Award for Best Original Song for “Shallow,” which was featured on the soundtrack of Best Picture nominee A Star is Born (2018). She also claimed a Golden Globe, a Critics’ Choice Award, and four GRAMMY Awards for “Shallow” and “I’ll Never Love Again,” both from the same soundtrack.
Lady Gaga knows no bounds, from producing her classic pop hits and beyond to the classic American Songbook with her albums “Cheek to Cheek” and “Love For Sale” with Tony Bennett, both respective #1 albums.
