The death greatly affected Gaga’s father, Joe Germanotta, (Joanne's brother) and left the family with what the singer describes as “a scar that never healed.” Gaga went on to detail Joanne’s influence: “It’s everything about Joanne, which also happens to be my middle name—I was named after her. It’s all the toughness of the pain of losing her that made us all strong and made us who we are. She is the woman of my past who is becoming and helping me bring more of my honest woman self into the future.” Lady Gaga Takes a Crop Top and Shorts to New Heights at Brandon Maxwell's NYFW Show Time to start counting down the days until Joanne!
