Image Credit: Fred Dufour/AFP/Getty ImagesLady Gaga‘s past is no longer for sale. MTV News reports that the star has intervened to buy back several items that a former manager had put up for auction through Gotta Have It! Collectibles.
The items included several rare demo CDs dating from 2002, 2005, and 2006, back when Gaga was still known as Stefani Germanotta. At least one of the discs contained early Gaga tunes that have never been heard by the public. The amount paid by Gaga’s management for the lots has not been disclosed.
These are not the first items to be pulled from the “Gotta Have Rock and Roll” auction. Last week, the FBI seized John Lennon’s 1976 application for U.S. residence before it could be sold.
Disappointed that you won’t have a chance to bid on Lady Gaga’s old demos? Let us know what you think of this story.

Better this than it ending up in some box somewhere in some rich, soon-to-die dude’s house, which is likely what would have happened.
What?

@EWMusicMix – your article kind of sucks and was missing the meat, the raw dollar amount. How much did it cost? How much would you pay?
I wonder how much gaga would pay to have her virginity back? Then she could try to sell herself as a new Christina Aguilera.
I would like to buy Gaga’s favorite coffee mug.
So if I ever saw her in public, I’d surely say “Hi Steph”.
Dammit, there goes Christmas.
I say more power to her. Nothing restricted her from buying the things back herself. It’s almost like blackmail that she had to pay for her own material, but greed is one of the “fame monsters” out there I’m sure she knows.
I agree; more power to her! She shouldn’t have to pay for her own stuff, but she did. I think it speaks volumes of her character that she bought the items rather than suing for them and causing a big stink.
This is news? I have a flash for you, my dog just took a crap.
Clete – you are on an entertainment website… what should they talk about?
Gee get a life.
