Summary/Abstract: The present text approaches, proposes and refers to a double act of post-becoming (in a manufacturing/spectacular sense), launching a perspective filtered by two inter-related terms/concepts: the formulae of making – made – as a way of fulfilling a new way of to be born. The investigation angle applied will be following J. Jack Halberstam & Rosi Braidotti’s theoretical frames, intersected with Lady Gaga & Slavoj Žižek’s (probable or negated) interferences. The result consists in affirming the Gaga Feminism, as part of the post-humanist turn, highlighting three post-founding directions: critical evaluation – political intervention – normative action.
