Lady Gaga will be in February at the cover of Canadian magazine FASHION Magazine, where he gave an exclusive interview, talking about fashion, Donatella, the process with Marina Abramovic among other issues. Check out the full translation of the interview below:
When I said that, I had no concept of where my career was going. When I was writing artpop, I was actually looking at where we are as a culture. The other day I was at H & M, looking around just to see what effect cake design that had on the Monster culture street fashion. People often say: "Who is this strange girl with these crazy clothes?".
I never let anyone change who I am. I was always willing to do everything with my own artistic vision. I create things about what I really care - I fight for the image, for music, for the fan community. Born This Way was about equal, and be yourself from the inside out, but now there is a need to celebrate it. Artpop is a celebration.
This is the dilemma. I do not believe there is pretense cake design in the art. You do not need to know anything about art to love it. You only need to be close and feel it. I want my fans to know that we need not succumb to what people think a pop star should be in order to be successful.
I found that after The Fame, The Fame Monster and Born This Way, everything had worn me. It was as if my mind and every muscle in my body had been taken by the noise and the cameras - but did not. I went to the forest cake design with Marina [for an artsy shop] and I realized how strong I really was. [Marina] will balance on a stick between her legs for nine hours and stay numb in the name of art. For her, it's all about creating that experience with the public where they look her suffering for his work. Once I was there with the sound of the river, and the calm, sweet voice of Marina telling me to close my eyes and find my way back home. I knew I could do anything.
I have a connection with old souls. So there was a kind of element session where I asked artists from the past to give me permission to feel your pain. When I was doing "The Death of Marat," I lay in each position for six or seven hours. cake design I also did my own part, where I hung upside down for 45 minutes in captivity. It was not meant to be sexual. I believe everyone has the power to be a hero of art. You need not wait until his death to be enjoyed, [even thought] cake design this is the time expecting his death to be able to write good things about you.
The moment you've been criticized for gaining weight, you created the Body Revolution movement and asked fans of all body types to post pictures of themselves on their website. You saw their bravery, helped his self-esteem? cake design
My self-esteem was fine. I had no problem with my weight - the world had. The Body Revolution was just my way of freeing myself from criticism. "Do What U Want" is about this. This cured me? No. But I was happy to see so many fans taking off their clothes to show that they also did not care. I want to remind everyone that people who earn a Nobel Prize and cure diseases are not supermodels. His legacy does not need to be a perception of beauty, this is not realistic.
In 2009, you gave a speech at the National Equality March in Washington, and called this one of the best moment of his career. The fury that speech was directed to the U.S. President, Barack Obama. Do you think this had an effect?
You do not know exactly where activism is going to land. I was just a person cake design talking. I grew up with gay friends, and when I started with my music, they continued there supporting me. How could I sit all night, making cake design money with which they purchased cake design tickets to see my show, knowing they did not have the same rights that I had? I can not do that.
You can not. Gay like this album, there is an explosion of joy that comes from a place of intense sadness. I was not born happy or believing in myself. I did not feel alive unless I was on stage. What I did not like during the era Born This Way, was this intense competitive energy around me. Because I had become so successful, people thought I wanted a number 1 hit all the time.
Donatella Versace once told me that you are the model of excellence today. You wrote a song about it in artpop suggesting how misunderstood it is. Why do you think she is so misunderstood?
Nobody really knows anything about her. She is the most gentle, loving and sweet woman. The reason I have done a song like "Donatella" is that you love to love her and that you love to hate her. This is the thing we have in common. The truth is, estam
