One of Lady Gaga’s former classmates shared some memories about her trying out for school productions:
“I went to an all boys Catholic school in Manhattan, she went to our sister school. When we had school plays, the girls tried out. She was always a lead. She'd sing the national anthem at intramural games. She vibed with a lot of us, and yes, we were all closeted gay boys at the time. Some things never change! I can't upload a video but I made a gif of her in our production of Damn Yankees. A star since the beginning.”
In an interview with Zane Lowe, Andrew Watt discusses the creative process behind his work with Lady Gaga: "The fans are present in every step she takes. They mean more to her than anything else."
Lady Gaga, at just 25 years old, leaving Patti Labelle, one of the greatest vocalists of all time, absolutely gagged.
Mind you, Gaga had only been in the industry three years at this stage. She really came in absolutely SWINGING.
Sorry about the lack of updates, I was literally in prison 😭
Kirill here. If you don’t know me, I’m the owner of Gaga Daily, and every social media post you saw from 2009 through 2024 was from me. I never use this account to post anything personal, but I feel like I owe you all an explanation. In early 2024, I was arrested in my home country for protesting against the government and sentenced to more than two years in prison.
Throughout the MAYHEM era, this account has been run by my friends Christian and Anthony, who have done such an incredible job. I’m out now, I’m safe, and I can’t wait to get back to doing something I love so much.
I’m incredibly touched and grateful for all the tweets and messages of support you guys have sent my way. I love this community so much, and it feels surreal that so many people who don’t know each other, whose only connection is something as silly as loving the same pop star, can form such a strong bond that lasts for so many years.
Let me know if you have any questions and feel free to follow me on IG at @/krzzle if you want to stay in touch.
LG8 when?
Lady Gaga on how to practice kindness and support the LGBTQ+ community:
“It’s not just about what you put on Instagram. It’s about how you live your life. It’s about how you have conversations with people, who you make an effort to be friends with. In your business, how do you make sure that systems are operating in inclusive ways and ways that celebrate people? It can’t just be when people are watching. You’ve got to be kind all the time.”
Lady Gaga discusses the fine line that exists between healthy connections with her audience and the unhealthy obsession that some artists can develop with fame and attention:
“I think that there's definitely a downside to it if you're really focused on the attention as opposed to what you're offering the audience, I think where it becomes unhealthy is when the obsession is not rooted in hard work, when the obsession is rooted in just camera flashes and fame.”
Fun fact: Lady Gaga wrote this song in 2008 with the intention of pitching it to another artist as the official 2010 FIFA World Cup Song!
It leaked online in 2011, prompting Gaga to tweet about it.
