It was so incredible meeting Lady Gaga. I mean I’m gaga for Gaga, literally. We kind of just each flew to each other like magnets after the ceremony ended and we were both just crying and hugging.
After graduating from flares and platforms in the early 1970s, I started drama school wearing a pair of khaki dungarees with one of my Dad’s Army shirts, accessorised by a cat’s basket doubling as a handbag. Very Lady Gaga.
I pride myself on being excellent at fancy dress, and I have dressed up as Ronald McDonald, Lady Gaga, a Christmas pudding and a crocodile to name but a few.
I like all kinds of music artists like Akon. I even listen to Lady Gaga.
Whether someone wants to learn the words to a new Lady Gaga song they heard on the radio or to verify the lyrics to ‘Blinded by the Light’, the LyricWiki community delivers.
With Lady Gaga I really stretched myself as a creative director, and because I was with this artist from before she got signed I was able to really take control of the opportunity and execute as a creative director.
Recently, Lady Gaga was motivated to take the helm of the creative direction of her career and as such I decided to step away. I am extremely proud of her, and in stepping away I wish her all the best.
I was thinking about working with Lady Gaga, not ‘Born This Way’ but more her old stuff that she did with RedOne from her first album. I think that would be really fun – a cool combination.
I like Kylie Minogue sometimes – I like a lot of unusual stuff… I don’t know – I like Justin Timberlake over Lady Gaga, just musically.
Lady Gaga said to me, ‘You showed me how it’s done.’ I have no idea what she meant by ‘it.’
Do you believe in Madonna? Because Lady Gaga has got something to say about ‘Express Yourself,’ and she’s turned Madonna’s fourth-best single of 1989 into her own instant-classic club anthem, ‘Born This Way.’
When Lady Gaga wears a meat dress, it’s meant to be controversial, but then it turns into money, and it’s all fine.
I always look at Akon as inspiration, and the fact that at one point Lady Gaga was signed to Konvict Muzik.
Lady Gaga is my name. If you know me, and you call me Stefani, you don’t really know me at all.
You can’t make an artist like Lady Gaga. You can help support, you can help develop the vision – I think you can add to the vision – but you just can’t make an artist like that. That’s like saying Lebron James’ high school coach made Lebron James.
Stephen Jones’ hats are what we used to call ‘creations’; extravagant, odd things for extravagant, odd people like Madonna or Lady Gaga. They’re worn in a parallel universe.
I like to think of myself as the people’s pop star a little bit. I respect Lady Gaga so much, and I love what she does, but she has this kind of mysterious, out-of-reach thing. I’m just not that – as much as I’d love to have that sort of mystique, I think I’m kind of an open book.
If somebody wants to get inside my brain and figure out what I’m chasing, what I’m after think Richard Branson, think Madonna, think Lady Gaga.
Lady Gaga is my big fashion inspiration. I look up to her a lot.
I like Lady Gaga because I like that she pushes the envelope.
I love Lady Gaga, Rihanna – all the pop girls like Katy Perry. I think Miley Cyrus is very talented, too. Apart from the visuals, which you may like or not like, but her music is quite good, actually. ‘Wrecking Ball’ is quite a good song, and she sang it really nicely.
I’m neither here nor there about this Lady Gaga, but she’s clearly very passionate about her poker face.
Lady Gaga reached out to us saying how much she loves our music, and we were just like, ‘What?! She knows who we are?!’ That’s how mindblown we were.
I had a lot of fun during all the performances, but the most memorable one was ‘Born This Way.’ Lady Gaga is one of our favorite artists, and I remember the Once in America had the best reaction when we performed that song for them.
I love Lady Gaga and I love Katy Perry and R&B and rap music… I love big, American pop music.
Be like Sasha Fierce. Be like Miley Cyrus. Be like Rihanna. Be like Lady Gaga. Be like Rita Ora and Sia. Be like Madonna. I cannot be like them, except to the extent that they are already being like me.
I like music that is upbeat, such as Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars. Or anything disco – I will listen to that, too.
I’ll tell you who makes me laugh, in a good way, and I’d love to have a date with her: if I could just have a salad with Lady Gaga? This would be my – I would almost probably faint.
Millennials give comics the kind of adulation past generations reserved for musicians. We respect Lady Gaga. But we’ll travel hundreds of miles to touch the hem of Jon Stewart’s robe.
Lady Gaga is a professional, truly, and someone who I aspire to be like as an entertainer.
I really love when music artists like Lady Gaga or Michael Jackson wear outrageous things. Obviously, if I wore something like that I’d look like an idiot, but I really respect fashion.
Lady Gaga, Beyonce, Rihanna, all of these artists that we do love – you see so much of what we do, the personas, makeup, hair, fashion – like, all of is now incorporated in pop culture, and a lot of it has to do with drag, because we over-exaggerate everything, right? We take it out to the next level.
I would love to work with Karlie Kloss and model for Chanel. And I would love to be in a music video with Lady Gaga or Taylor Swift, my two favorite artists.
The reason we care so much about what happens to the likes of Lady Gaga is not because her shenanigans will ever impact our lives; rather because our brain doesn’t realize there’s a difference between rock stars we know about and relatives we know.
When Lady Gaga says I am her inspiration, you reach kids between 12 and 18. Now I am like a brand – jeans, Coca-Cola.
There are so many things to learn from Lady Gaga.
Lady Gaga? She’s cool! She works really hard. When we would have our dance rehearsals, she wasn’t the singer that was like, ‘Oh, I’ll just stand in front.’ She wanted to learn everything – she was doing the dance moves. She’s a good dancer.
I have beautiful, beautiful clothes, designed by my bachelor boy son, Kenny. Kenny has a big following as it is, and even Lady Gaga has asked Kenny to design dresses for her. But Kenny isn’t very keen on, well, shall we say, extreme women. He likes someone that women all over the world can identify with.
I’m personally looking for artists that are along the lines of today’s pop stars. Whether it be a Rihanna or a Justin Bieber or a Kanye West or a Beyonce or a Lady Gaga, I’m looking for talent that’s like that, that’s what I love.
Do something active that’s fun. On tour with Kanye and Common, we would have basketball games on a court in every city we went to. With Alicia Keys, we would mountain-bike across Vancouver Island. With Lady Gaga, we would explore all the cool neighborhoods.
Nobody has communicated with the public more than Lady Gaga. Ever. I trust the audience, and I’m very impressed. As far as they’re concerned, she’s part of their family. The only guy who ever did that was Bing Crosby, years ago.
I would love to read Lady Gaga and Tonya Harding.
I admire Lady Gaga. She wears exactly what she likes, no matter how good or bad it turns out.
She was a performance artist calling herself Lady Gaga, who had a European dance-club sound and pop-star aspirations – elements that historically haven’t mixed.
