Lady Gaga's much-anticipated sophomore set, BORN THIS WAY, finds the superstar re-teaming with her frequent collaborator RedOne on an album that builds upon the daring dance-pop of THE FAME MONSTER, highlighted by the first single and title track, "Born This Way." "Born This Way", set a music industry record becoming the fastest single in history to reach sales of 1,000,000 copies worldwide (five days after it's February 11th release). Lady Gaga's third #1 song, the recording debuted at the top spot in 14 countries, including the U.S.; only the 19th single to ever debut at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Her contributions to the music industry have garnered her numerous achievements including five Grammy Awards amongst twelve nominations, two Guinness World Records and the estimated sale of 15 million albums and 51 million singles worldwide. Billboard named her both the "2010 Artist of the Year" and the top selling artist of 2010 ranking her as the 73rd Artist of the 2000's decade.
