Call it the Gaga Effect.
It wasn’t until Lady Gaga unveiled her wildly ambitious Monster Ball  Tour that her fame reached monstrous levels. The massive production  numbers, augmented by dance troupes, enormous stage props and, of  course, dramatic costumes, took her from singer with a pop hit to queen  of pop culture faster than you could say, “Ga ga, ooh la la.”
So it’s no surprise that a whole flock of stars are super-sizing  their concert experiences this summer to latch onto some of that buzz.  Gaga promises a whole new show that’s “more of a musical and less of a  concert” for this summer’s tour, which includes stops at Madison Square  Garden July 6, 7 and 9.
