Lady Gaga's Former Assistant Files Lawsuit Over Unpaid Overtime
Posted on Mon Dec 26, 2011 08:05 AM PDT
Lady Gaga's former assistant, Jennifer O'Neill, has filed a lawsuit claiming she was not paid for overtime that accumulated during her 13 months of employment with the singer.
In the lawsuit, O'Neill states that part of her job included "ensuring the promptness of a towel following a shower and serving as a personal alarm clock to keep [Lady Gaga] on schedule."
O'Neill claims she is owed $380,000 in overtime. The legal papers also state that the assistant was at Gaga's beck and call in "stadiums, private jets, fine hotel suites, yachts, ferries, trains and tour buses."
Although the lawsuit mentions Gaga, she is not the defendant. The lawsuit is between O'Neill and Mermaid Touring Company ...the company Lady G uses for her concerts.
Gaga's rep tells the NY Post that the lawsuit is "completely without merit."
Do you think O'Neill's claims sound legit?

GAGA HAS FOUND YET ANOTHER WAY TO EXPLOIT AND PROFIT$$$ FROM THE PAIN AND SUFFERING OF A VULNERABLE COMMUNITY!! WHICH GAGA DOES NOT BELONG TO! gaga IS SOOOOO HETERO.
Just like gaga's 'paws for Japan bracelet' SCAM, gaga and her mum, will eventually be sued for STEALING money from the foundation!!
When gaga was repeatedly asked what SHE would do and what her ideas were, she admitted she gave the same answer to everyone="gaga has NO IDEA'S about how to make the world a better place". gaga said that's harvards job to figure out. If gaga's motives were pure, she would have had better and more caring answer's!!!
I'm glad SMART GAY'S have started to "wake up" and realize what a SCAM ARTIST gaga is!!!!!!!!!!!!
John 12:3-6
"3 Then Mary took about a pint of pure nard, an expensive perfume; she poured it on Jesus’ feet and wiped his feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.
4 But one of his disciples, JUDAS Iscariot, who was later to BETRAY HIM, objected, 5 “Why wasn’t this perfume sold and the money given to the poor? It was worth a year’s wages.” 6 He did not say this because he cared about the poor but because HE WAS A THIEF; as keeper of the MONEY BAG, he used to HELP HIMSELF to what was put into it."- The Bible
gaga also kept saying Our Gay Civil Rights Movement will "take a REALLY long time at her fauxdation fundraiser".
Actually, gaga is WRONG! There is an intellectual formula to starting a trend and/or epidemic. One rule is that major change happens RAPIDLY!!! Our Gay Rights Movement is at a crucial "tipping point", and gaga has tipped The Movement into a NEGATIVE DIRECTION!!!
gaga has used pop culture to REINFORCE EVERY NEGATIVE STEREOTYPE SOCIETY HAS CREATED ABOUT THE LGBTQ COMMUNITY!!!!
Society has called Homosexuals "MONSTER'S" for centuries and gaga totally reinforces that MISCONCEPTION!!
DONT BUY INTO THAT DEHUMANIZING LABEL=MONSTER!!!!
BE HUMAN, BE HAPPY!!!
"Lady Gaga gives 50 percent of her earnings to her father
By MAUREEN CALLAHAN
It’s her great paradox: At 25, Lady Gaga may be the most avant-garde performer of the last decade, a self-anointed Queen of the Freaks who reinvents herself with whipsaw rigor, yet she remains very much a nice Catholic girl who is most comfortable with 19-year-old sister Natali, mom Cynthia and dad Joe — who takes an unprecedented 50 percent of her earnings under their LLCs, Team Love Child and Mermaid Music."
"But it’s the 50/50 split between Gaga and her father that’s most unusual. There’s only one other of its kind in the history of the music industry — between Elvis and Col. Tom Parker.
“There’s really no justifiable sense to doing a 50/50 deal with anyone in your career, other than someone you’re partners in a band with,” says Josh Grier, an entertainment lawyer who represents Wilco and Elvis Costello, among others. “Certainly no artist entering a management deal does anything close to that — a commission is usually 15 to 20 percent.”
"That said, it’s quite possible that Lady Gaga, born Stefani Germanotta, believes her father has earned his share of her fortune, even though her success has allowed him to realize a lifelong dream: He now works in the industry, managing aspiring artists. Yet she likely sees this as further evidence of how similar they are; her adoration is unconditional. In January 2010, she told Elle magazine, “I’m married to my dad,” and that September, she told Vanity Fair, “I’m happier than I’ve ever been. I’ve been in my father’s arms for two weeks, wishing [him] a Happy Father’s Day"
"Joe Germanotta grew up in New Jersey, a rock ’n’ roll fanatic who loved Led Zeppelin and Billy Joel and who perhaps overshared with his daughter along the way: “He was having sex with girls under the boardwalk in New Jersey before he went to see Bruce Springsteen,” Gaga said in July. “He saw a lot of himself in me. My first piano teacher was a stripper."
"At the time, Stefani was also performing as a burlesque dancer in downtown nightclubs and working out a more sexually provocative look, often walking down the street in fishnets, spike heels and heavy makeup, mistaken for a hooker or a transsexual, not caring either way. Her father, however, was appalled. Stefani told one friend that her father had reprimanded her for wearing underwear over her tights to a business meeting at Sony: “He said, ‘You look like a f--king slut!"
"As she began making progress, Joe was seemingly swayed by his daughter’s assertion that everything was in service of her art. He’s become so inured to his daughter’s outre costuming that he was recently shot at a party with his arm around Gaga, who was braless in a sheer top, nipples covered with black electrical tape. Perhaps his involvement in the industry accounts for the shift in attitude. Since 2008, Joe Germanotta has worked as a music manager, though none of the acts in his stable has yet to break. His daughter remains his most successful investment."- NY Post site
