Lady Gaga conquered
Twitter by being the first celebrity to reach 18 million followers. She has
over 47 million likes on Facebook. And on Myspace--wait, is Myspace even a
thing anymore?
Now What's LADY GAGA planning?
Apparently, something bigger than Facebook and Google. The new offering is called "BACKPLANE," with a website of www.littlemonsters.com, and it's expected to file its IPO soon.

LittleMonsters.com will
reportedly let crazy fans spend hours on the internet obsessing about the
singer, and even allow them a little communication with the Mother Monster.
The site is currently being
set up and the webpage invites fans to sign up with their email addresses. Upon
signing up, you’ll get a little reply that reads:
“Your invitation request has been received! We're excited to share the world of Little Monsters with you very shortly, keep an eye out for an official invite sometime soon."
According to FMQB, the site
is powered by Backplane, which is a social media project that lets celebrities
interact directly with their fans online. Kind of exactly like Twitter. Except
without the trolls. For example, on Thursday of last week, the phrase #Gaga’s Career
Died With Jamey became a trending topic. It was in reference to the tragic
suicide of 14 year-old Jamey Rodemeyer, who was bullied over his sexuality.
Yep, not even in death can you escape online trolling.

We're wondering what the
site's tagline will be. Facebook's nabbed the whole 'connecting people' idea,
while Twitter's all about 'what's happening, right now'. Maybe LittleMonster's
motto could be: 'Everyone's had enough of Gaga, but Gaga won't give up'?
