My Life as Lady Gaga

Renée performing in China at Lan Kwai Fong The Summer Lover Concert

I moved on from impersonation work in 2019 after nearly a decade as America’s go-to Lady Gaga lookalike, soundalike, and tribute artist. From 2010 to 2019, I produced and toured with The Lady Gaga Experience, offering fans “the next best thing” to seeing their idol live. During this time, I was the only Lady Gaga impersonator in the world whose photos were mistaken for the real Gaga on DVD covers and in over 14 publications worldwide.

During this period, I opened for K Pop star G.E.M. in China, and Rachel Platten. I also appeared at private events around the world including at The Tower Of David in Israel, in Haikou China, Hong Kong, Citi Field, Pittsburgh Little Italy Days, Long Island Pride, Binghamton Pride, Lan Kwai Fong, ABC’s Times Square New Year’s Eve event and more. I played Lady Gaga in numerous film/TV productions, including for E! Network, MTV, and “The Fashion Planet” on Dutch/German TV. Some of my press included MTV, CNN, Inside Edition, PopDust, China Daily, India Times, Brooklyn Based, The Daily News, AM NY, Fashion Spot, Crushable, AM NY, Metro Source, Vulture, Bitten and Bound, The Lady Gaga Official Collectors Magazine, and other publications worldwide.

While this era was incredibly fun, I ultimately retired because I envisioned more for myself than spending my post-35 years dancing around nightclubs and event venues in a bubble dress! This page showcases photos from my incredible journey—just a glimpse of the wild ride I experienced as a Lady Gaga impersonator. I can’t wait to share the full story in my upcoming memoir, where I’ll take you behind the scenes of this unforgettable, surreal chapter of my life!
