I chose lady gaga as a modern transcendentalist because she values imagination, has a strong individualism and she has an appreciation for nature.
She fits the profile of a person who values imagination because she is always wearing the craziest outfits and she always encourages people to be themselves. She herself has a very large imagination and is a very creative person I have ever seen. She also holds creativity and imagination over logic and reason because she wore a dress of meat. That is something that is very unreasonable and illogical.
She has a very strong individualism and a non-conformist. You can tell by her outfits and by her personality. You can also tell that she has a strong non-conformist personality because of her music, she doesn't care about what she says in her music, and she doesn't care if it offends people. 
she also has an appreciation for nature because her outfits usually have a message behind them, and most of the time the message has to do with nature or helping nature in some way. she tries to send a good message and a message that will usually help people. All around Lady Gaga is definitely a modern transcendentalist.
