recently, in and outside of school, ι've had a lot of people all tell me the same thing:
"You look like Lady Gaga."
when ι was first told this in early november ι wasn't sure whether to be insulted or flattered,
then more and more people began saying it,
because ι had never seen nor listened to her before.
(ι just listened to paparazzi, bad romance, and poker face earlier this week, literally, for the first time.)
ιt wasn't until last week that ι really even was concerned, because,
frankly, ι didn't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing and didn't care to find out.
my curiousity peeked however when, in spanish, the most notorious and infamous of the local gaga fans in the school and his two friends said:
"Has anyone told you that you look just like Lady Gaga, and we mean really like Lady Gaga?"
ι'd asked him and the two girls what it was and apparently they agreed,
ι looked similiar to her in several ways, "identical" even, they said "everything."
they continued, first with verifying that ι spelled my name Stefanie with an f,
because her name is also Stefani, almost spelled exactly the same.
and, apparently, she was brunette, as ι am, before she was blonde and
if ι were to dye my hair blonde we'd be "twins".
it was said that ι also sound "just" like her in her interviews.
ι, took this as... odd, because increasingly random people in the hall ways stop to say it,
and ι've literally lost count at the number. ι can verify at least twenty people have commented on it since november,
and even my mother and friends say that they can see what they mean.
and no one says "and the buck stops there," nope, just, "you do, Miss Gaga."
ι'm fairly analytical and ι don't see a lot of similarities but ι admit that there are some,
but ι've distinguished all of the differences, since they're too me, easier to see than the similarities,
but ι suppose that is in part because ι went in wanting to disprove them.
regardless, ι'm still not sure if ι should be flattered or not,
but ι am enjoying being told ι look like a celebrity, it's a first, really.
