And with the Golden Globe show returning to a televised broadcast this year following internal changes made by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association — amid the controversy over the lack of diversity among its former voting body — fans want to know all about Lady Gaga’s Globes history.

Lady Gaga’s Golden Globe Wins
2016 Best Actress Limited Series Television – American Horror Story: Hotel
Lady Gaga hit it out of the park on her first time at bat for acting on television!

And she keeps them together and she wants to be rewarded for that, for who she really is, and not for anything else.”
