If love is a sin, live a lie. You and Me, until I die.
What I've discovered is that in art, as in music, there's a lot of truth-and then there's a lie. The artist is essentially creating his work to make this lie a truth, but he slides it in amongst all the others. The tiny little lie is the moment I live for, my moment. It's the moment that the audience falls in love.
I'm telling you a lie in a vicious effort that you will repeat my lie over and over until it becomes true
In my show I announce, 'People say Lady Gaga is a lie, and they are right. I am a lie. And every day I kill to make it true.
I used to walk down the street like I was a super star... I want people to walk around delusional about how great they can be - and then to fight so hard for it every day that the lie becomes the truth.
I'm not a supermodel. That's not what I do. What I do is music. I want my fans to feel the way I do, to know what they have to offer is just as important, more important, than what's happening on the outside.
I'm not one icon. I'm every icon. I'm an icon that is made out of all the colors on the palette at every time. I have no restrictions. No restrictions.
I love Dolce & Gabbana. I love Versace. I love the crazy, more eccentric stuff.
No matter how much you rehearse on that stage, once you add 30,000 screaming people with flashing cameras into the equation, it's pretty intense.
I am my own sanctuary and I can be reborn as many times as I choose throughout my life.
People that are obsessed with hating you, feel flattered. Their whole lives revolve around you.
If you know me, and you call me Stefani, you don't really know me at all.
I'm half living my life between reality and fantasy at all times. It's best not to ask questions and just enjoy.
In order for me to be successful... In order to be a great artist - musician, actor, painter, whatever - you must be able to be private in public at all times. That is what we do.
