2018 was truly an incredible year for Gaga. Even though she didn't actually record a new studio album, she still gave us new music with the A Star Is Born soundtrack. Oh, and she delivered the performance of a lifetime as Ally in the film. In fact, the movie was so good that it earned a whopping 24 nominations during award season.
In honor of the film's one-year anniversary, Gaga posted an Instagram snap of herself holding a multiplatinum plaque that she was awarded for the movie's amazing soundtrack. "A year ago, A Star was Born, and here we are 6 times pink platinum," she wrote. The album surpassed six million global sales and became certified double platinum in the US.
In between promoting A Star Is Born, Gaga also graced the cover of Vogue's October 2018 issue and gave a riveting interview about her career journey and evolving image. "For me, fashion and art and music have always been a form of armor. I just kept creating more and more fantasies to escape into, new skins to shed," she said. "Every time I shed a skin, it was like taking a shower when you're dirty: getting rid of, washing off, shedding all of the bad, and becoming something new."
