Can you imagine what it would be like to have a personal assistant who is on call 24 hours a day? So, for instance, if you are watching a DVD at 3:00 a.m. and decide you want to watch a different one, you don’t have to do the actual work of changing it yourself. Wouldn’t that be awesome? (Errgh, no, but I digress.) Well, Lady Gaga (real name: Stefani Germanotta) got that for a mere $75,000 a year.
What could go wrong? Well, it turns out that $75,000 a year isn’t enough to buy a super loyal assistant who won’t decide, one day, that this whole 24 hour a day, 7 day a week job, isn’t worth the hassle. And, furthermore, she was being paid unfairly. So, she decided to sue. And a NY Federal Court determined that the case can go forward.
