We were watchng SNL last night, and we started wondering if there’s more than one Lady Gaga, kind of like how there’s more than one Blue Man Group, so they can be playing in Vegas and touring at the same time.  
If she’s just one person, she sure can change the way she looks, can’t she?

Is that true about there being more than one Blue Man group? Please say it ain’t so. Lie to me if you have to.
