"Other than this interview Oprah, I do not intend on speaking to anyone for a very long time.. No press, no television." Gaga has one of the most loyal fan bases in the music industry but despite her roaring success she has never been devoured by the fame monster.

The average British female sports size is a sixteen but despite this, the former Spice Girl (whose diet consists of steamed fish and raw vegetables and easily fits into a size six dress) claims she represents the general public. It's fairly evident that the star may used to fit that physique during her Spice Girl days sporting a healthy ten to twelve dress size. But in recent years her dieting and weight has made her one of the leanest women in Hollywood. The star who gave birth to her fourth child in July, last showed off her toned body in a recent Harpers Bazaar Magazine shoot for swim wear. The fashion designer is so convinced that she represents the norm that she has started basing her designs on her own measurements and has replaced models with her own body when it comes to fitting dresses for her clothing line…HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOMMA: The name Pattie Mallette may not ring a bell with most people, but the twitter world has exploded with "Happy Birthday Pattie" trending worldwide.

Thanks for giving birth to the sexiest creature on earth," and more genuine messages like "Happy Birthday Pattie. You've created and raised a beautiful son. He has turned from a boy to a young man. You did a good job." So I'll jump on the bandwagon here Happy Birthday Pattie Mallette…

TRIPLE J & INTHEMIX PRESENTS
THE LIKES OF YOU WITH STEPHAN BODZIN LIVE AND HUGO
SATURDAY JULY 3

Intuition is the little man inside all our heads. A flash of illumination that can't be judged by logical reason. Intuition gives us direction and guidance in every aspect of life, from who we like…and who you don't, where we eat and drink, what we wear and what music we like. Some people are in tune with and close to their little man, some people don't hear him at all. For those of you who don't listen, your intuition is telling to you to its time for techno…Its time for The Likes Of You.

STEPHAN BODZIN Re:Live (Herzblut Records, Bremen)

Authenticity is everything - without it everything would appear to be nothing more than a hollow shell", says someone who has found himself at the centre of the international techno scene since 2006. The passionate musician from Bremen has become a heavy influence for an awful lot of producers worldwide. As the son of an experimental musician his career in the music industry was set from an early age. And it was only a matter of time before Stephan would fall in love with electronic music. Composing music for several prestigious European theaters was the first successful platform for his music. His mind-blowing talent was soon discovered and producers such as Oliver Huntemann, Thomas Schumacher and Marc Romboy queued up to work with Stephan. Due to the quality of his impressive music he has reached the top of the international techno scene. Most recently he has remixed songs for well-known bands such as Depeche Mode, Booka Shade and The Knife His solos productions have done nothing but raise his worldwide profile even more and he now has the freedom of an individual artist with a worldwide audience. Stephan's music is as polarizing as he is, both as DJ and live artist. But there's one statement that holds true for all of his productions: they are certainly of the highest 'authenticity.

HUGO (Italy)

Hailing from Turin in Italy, Hugo was really young when he had the perception that music is something more than an expression of art. During the 90's classically trained jazz musician Hugo, felt in love with electronic music. Music is not merely the sound, or the perception of sound, but a means by which perception, action and memory are organized. In Hugo's live set the beat became more mechanical and the bass grooves became deeper, while elements of electronic funk, latin percussions and melodies are grafted over 4/4 beat. Hugo has been releasing his productions, constantly improving his ability to amalgamate distinct sounds into a cohesive whole. Hugo blends together the artificial and the organic, and uses tension and pacing for a powerful effect on the dancefloor. Hugo's music is not a break with the electronic music of the past, but an extreme re-invention of the music of today.
