I want you to feel happy and enjoy the theatre of my life the way that I do. No matter what happens with my music and wherever I go - that heart of that glamorous girl in New York will never be gone.
I have never had plastic surgery, and there are many pop singers who have.
In case you're wondering whether I lip synch, the answer is no... people think so because I sound so good.
I think a lot of people love to convolute what everyone else does in order to disempower women.
I've worked since I was a five-year-old to be a performer.
I am a feminist. I reject wholeheartedly the way we are taught to perceive women. The beauty of women, how a woman should act or behave. Women are strong and fragile. Women are beautiful and ugly. We are soft-spoken and loud, all at once. There is something mind-controlling about the way we're taught to view women. My work, both visually and musically, is a rejection of all those things.
I was changing my outfits, my looks, my wig, sometimes several times a day. That's when I know my soul is restless.
The only big things I've purchased are my dad's heart valve and a Rolls-Royce for my parents, for their anniversary. And that was only because my dad had a Lady Gaga license plate on our old car and it was making me crazy because he was getting followed everywhere, so I bought him a new car.
Being beautiful is not so fun when you're in a business with all men.
I wouldn't say that I am one of the greatest dancers, but I am really quite good at what I do.
I'm not a sandwich store that only sells turkey sandwiches. I sell a lot of different things.
I'm doing everything that I can, working with experts, really studying the statistics to figure out a way we can make it cool or normal to be kind and loving.
I actually don't want a throne at all, because I don't view myself as a queen; I view myself as one of my fans.
I love my friends and my past, and it's made me who I am.
