In the end, she was hired to write music for Britney Spears and labelmates New Kids on the Block, Fergie, and the Pussycat Dolls. At Interscope, singer-songwriter Akon recognized her vocal abilities when she sang a reference vocal for one of his tracks in studio; Akon then convinced Interscope-Geffen-A&M Chairman and CEO Jimmy Iovine to form a joint deal by having her also sign with his own label Kon Live, making her his "franchise player. In 2008 Gaga released her first album , 'The Fame', to lukewarm radio play; Gaga performed in Europe and also in gay clubs in the US to promote the album - however it wasn't until her hit single "Just Dance" was brought to the attention of the public in 2009 that Gaga was a star on the music scene. Gaga suffered from a labral tear on her right leg, which she had been secretly nursing for several weeks in order to be able to continue the tour. After her performance in Toronto Gaga became unable to walk and in great pain. She was taken to the hospital and the tour was cancelled.
