Lada Gaga’s Parents Open Italian Restaurant

Joseph and Cynthia Germanotta, the parents of Lady Gaga, have opened a Manhattan restaurant, Joanne Trattoria, the New York Times reports.

Some fans have already sought it out thanks to a Gaga appearance there on New Year’s Eve, but her parents are hoping the eatery won’t be overwhelmed with her millions of little monsters. Instead, Joanne will offer more of a neighborhood feel, albeit one with $25-$30 entrees.

“If they’re expecting to come in here and see Grammys and pictures and stuff like that, it’s not going to happen,” Joseph said, adding that his daughter “generates a lot of sizzle.”

Gaga told ABC News in November that “My dad and I opened up a restaurant together,” but her father told the Times that the singer is in fact not an owner of the new eatery.
