The Lady Gaga 'Princess Die' song is inspired by the late Diana, Princess of Whales. It was the first time she debuted the track in Melbourne, Australia; she advised her fans that she was unsure as to whether or not it would be included in her next album. The rather depressing and dark song includes lyrics such as, "I'll be a Princess Die and die with you," and, "I'm hungry from an anorexic heart."
Lady Gaga being a huge global phenomenon, it is possible that she could relate to the princess's struggles of being constantly in the public eye. Gaga is known for her provocative and jaw-dropping performances -- lately it seems that she has been steering her brand into a Gothic and futuristic path.
She has not only impacted the pop music scene, but fashion as well, with her outlandish and sometimes questionable attire. However, Lady Gaga is a prime example of someone who has managed a successful personal brand that people just can't get enough of.
