A billion views on Youtube may only appear to be as a big deal to Gaga herself, as she once mentioned that she is hungry for fame. Which also explains the name of one of her albums, The Fame Monster.
I do not deny that she is influential in some ways, as there are many of her fans out there who idolize her, imitate her and think that she is really 'cool'. However, I do not think that by getting a billionth hit on Youtube makes Lady Gaga the most powerful person in music.
I feel that what attracts visitors to her videos are the content of her music videos which mostly do not make much sense and the catchy tune of her songs. She dresses up looking really weird in her music videos and the lyrics of her song do not make sense sometimes. It might seem really 'cool', unique and interesting to some that they would like to 'check it out' on Youtube but I find that all to be just signs of attention seeking and Gaga's hunger for fame.
All in all, i do not think that a billion views on Youtube makes Gaga the most powerful person in music and it is not a big deal.
