It sometimes makes people feel better about themselves, you know, to put other people down, or make fun of them, or maybe make mockery of their work and that doesn't make me feel good at all.
I don't see myself in terms of artifice. I see myself as a real person who chooses to live my life in an open way - artistically.
There really is no difference between the bully and the victim.
In the book of Gaga, fame is in your heart, fame is there to comfort you, to bring you self-confidence and worth whenever you need it.
I really wanted to break the mold of what modern touring is right now.
I was called really horrible, profane names very loudly in front of huge crowds of people, and my schoolwork suffered at one point.
I was so ashamed of who I was.
I'm drawn to bad romances.
I'm not interested in people positioning me next to other artists.
I've had grand pianos that are more expensive than, like, a year's worth of rent.
In a sense I portray myself in a very androgynous way, and I love androgyny.
I never intended for the Monster Ball to be a religious experience, it just became one.
I just want my family to be safe. Because I am sometimes polarizing, I fear for their safety.
I hope when I'm dead I'll be considered an icon, though.
