In 2006, she began working with music producer Rob Fusari, who had worked with artists such as Beyonce and Kelly Rowland of Destiny's Child. The name, Lady GaGa, came out when he would call her GaGa as a nickname, from the song "Radio Ga-Ga" by Queen when Fusari would liken her to lead singer Freddie Mercury. She began performing all over New York City clubs and her theatrical pop act started to create buzz for the artist.
