What would you do if you saw Lady Gaga walking around Kennesaw State University?
On Wednesday, Oct.10, 2012, Renee Cole will perform her internationally recognized show, “The Lady Gaga Experience,” for KSU’s Homecoming.
Over two year ago, Renee Cole entered a Lady Gaga impersonation contest to win tickets to the singer’s concert. After fooling people and the press at the competition, Cole was announced the winner. The competition inspired Cole to develop a tribute show called “The Lady Gaga Experience.” From the United States to Asia, Cole performs the tribute show around the world and fans are amazed!
One factor that makes Cole different from any other Lady Gaga impersonator is that she actually sings live.
“I have been singing and acting in New York for 10 years and my favorite songs to perform are Alejandro and Poker Face,” Cole says. “This will be a very interactive show and I will choose people to lip sync as I perform.”
The “Lady Gaga Experience” is expected to be a mind-blowing event, which will include 10 of Lady Gaga’s top hit records and a video performance. Cole gathers ideas from previous Lady Gaga concerts like, the “Monster or Born This Way Ball,” other live performances and music videos.
“I want all the little monsters to put their paws up enjoy the show as if Lady Gaga was performing herself.” Cole says.
Cole promises to have great costume changes and exciting choreography to give the audience the true Lady Gaga experience.
“I haven’t met Lady Gaga yet, but I study her constantly because as an actress you have to know the part you are playing,” Cole says. “I just don’t study her songs, but I study interviews and articles written about her so I can learn her personality.”
“I want people to come to my show, not scared to be themselves, the same way Lady Gaga would make you feel,” Cole says.
“The Lady Gaga Experience” was previously booked by top companies like ABC and MTV. Cole even performed in Times Square on New Year’s Eve 2011. New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg also assumed Cole was Lady Gaga when she performed in Times Square, saying “I look forward to dropping the ball with you later.”
“The Lady Gaga Experience” will surely be an exciting event that should not be missed.
“Kennesaw State here we come,” Cole says, via “The Lady Gaga Experience” fan page on Facebook.
“The Lady Gaga Experience” will take place at 7 p.m. Oct. 10 at the University Place Amphitheater.
