LADY Gaga's father has been slammed for asking the public to pay for his restaurant staff's wages. Joe Germanotta said he needs $50,000 to cover costs of his New York eatery, Joanne Trattoria, after 30 employees were laid off amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Joe appealed for help despite Lady Gaga being worth an estimated $275million thanks to album sales, tours and endorsements. It's not all from music though, as the Little Monster also raked in the cash for A Star Is Born, taking $5-10 million from the $434 million-grossing 2018 blockbuster.
