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.
For inspiration, we still demand the rhetorical high notes. Clinton has hit them before, in her speech in Beijing as first lady when she said, ‘Women’s rights are human rights,’ and in her 2008 concession speech, when she talked about the ’18 million cracks’ in the glass ceiling.
I decided to be this bearded lady in 2011.
Fate has it in for me to be an exhibit: that funny old lady from the telly.
At my school, which was all boys, I played almost exclusively lady parts. When I say lady parts, I mean parts that were ladies. To actually play lady parts would be weird, even by English standards.
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.
I am ashamed to run against a lady. It’s demeaning, very degrading. I have always refused to argue with a lady.
I’m gonna do the whole bedroom in camel color – it’s an old lady color.
My mother sang. But back in the day, it was looked down upon if the lady of the house wanted to sing in public. So, she couldn’t pursue her musical aspirations.
I think that tennis is a lady’s sport, so we should look out there like ladies.
Grissom is pretty asexual. He’s not that interested in anything other than work – except for Lady Heather. She’s the closest to getting his heart of anyone.
I came to N.Y.C. in 1988 and got very involved with Act Up. I also started making movies, including two very gay shorts, ‘Vaudeville’ and ‘Lady.’ It was the height of the AIDS epidemic, and New York City was both dying and very alive at the same time.
I want to work endlessly and tirelessly until I’m an old, old lady.
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.

When I first went on Strictly’ I had a little phase at the beginning, you know, when I was sat next to this really beautiful lady, Darcey Bussell – this ballerina, this Snow White beauty – that I stopped eating until I looked at myself and realized I looked so gaunt.
When you become first lady, it’s like, ‘O.K., now what do you do?’
It sounds kind of farfetched, yet I can’t tell you how many people have had this syndrome… the ‘Old Hag Syndrome.’ Apparently, there’s this little old lady who comes into your room at night, sits on your chest and tries to suffocate you. You can Google her – she’ll pop up. She’s out there.
You get tarred with the brush of ‘Lady in Red.’ I play Russia or China or places all over the world. They don’t even speak English but they know the words. You get a big song like that, and people love it or hate it. And if they don’t like it, they don’t like anything at all by the artist.
There’s nothing wrong with looking like a woman and going in the workplace and doing everything a man can do but looking 1,000 percent like a lady.

When I first heard Lady Gaga’s ‘Born This Way,’ I looked out the window for the car alarm going off.
My mom is a white Jewish lady, and my dad is black. The cultures never seemed separate – I had a lot of mixed friends. When I was young, I identified with being Jewish, but I embraced my dad’s side, too.
I couldn’t do any of my other characters, you know? But I could have done the lady. Church Lady’s Malibu Beach party is an idea I have for a movie, too. Yes.
I have wonderful friends. I’m not just a lonely old lady.
I used to play too with a boy who played a saxophone. We didn’t play no blues, we’d play a lot of love songs – ‘Stardust’, ‘Blue Moon’, ‘Out Cold Again’, ‘Sophisticated Lady’, ‘Stars Fell On Alabama’, a lot of different stuff.
I love working in television, and I’ve been thrilled to be a part of so many wonderful shows. I worked with Lady Gaga on ‘Gossip Girl,’ and the brilliant Felicity Huffman on ‘Desperate Housewives,’ but I think my favorite TV job so far was the pilot I shot for the CW Network this year called ‘Joey Dakota.’
To mankind in general Macbeth and Lady Macbeth stand out as the supreme type of all that a host and hostess should not be.
The electric guitar was a big step for me, but I didn’t spend a lot of time trying to adjust. It wasn’t like, ‘Hey, little lady, come strap on this here big guitar.’ We took it in steps as much as possible.
Once upon a perfect night, unclouded and still, there came the face of a pale and beautiful lady. The tresses of her hair reached out to make the constellations, and the dewy vapours of her gown fell soft upon the land.
Most men’s anger about religion is as if two men should quarrel for a lady they neither of them care for.
Give us that grand word ‘woman’ once again, and let’s have done with ‘lady’; one’s a term full of fine force, strong, beautiful, and firm, fit for the noblest use of tongue or pen; and one’s a word for lackeys.
I’m a Southern lady that almost never leaves the house without makeup on.
If I’m on a bus and an old lady gets on, I get up.
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’d really like to play Lady Macbeth.
I’m the lady next door when I’m not on stage.
Wellesley’s president, Nannerl Overholser Keohane, approved a broad rule with a specific application: The senior thesis of every Wellesley alumna is available in the college archives for anyone to read – except for those written by either a ‘president or first lady of the United States.’
My wife’s an Australian and a very competitive lady, and she wants to sail in Sydney-Hobart. I say, ‘We have the boat, do as you wish.’ I’ll let her run the show.
I’m obsessed with Lady Gaga. I saw her at the Alexander Wang fashion show after-party, and I think she’s the nicest person ever.
I’m an honorary old Jewish lady of the West Village.
Every time ‘Lady Macbeth’ and everyone involved in the film gets nominated, it’s amazing.
I used to be a kid with a camera, and that used to be kind of endearing to people. Now I’m sort of an old lady with a camera.
Teach not thy lip such scorn, for it was made For kissing, lady, not for such contempt.
Some of my favorite films are musicals, like ‘Walk the Line,’ ‘The Rose’ and ‘Lady Sings the Blues.’ I just love the way the music and the story fuel each other.
I did ‘My Fair Lady’ for almost 3 1/2 years, eight performances a week. It was a marathon.
When Lady Gaga wears a meat dress, it’s meant to be controversial, but then it turns into money, and it’s all fine.
Both Kennedy and Obama exuded a dash of glamour in their roles as commander-in-chief and became the darlings of Hollywood. As president, each brought to the White House a fashionable and accomplished First Lady, two adorable young children and scene-stealing pets.
A lady of a certain age must keep her top on. That’s what I feel.
There are a lot of movies about misfits that are quite cool, that kind of glamorize it on some level. I think there are fewer films, certainly with a lady at the center, about the agony of what it’s like to feel like you’re not accepted, and you’re different, and somehow you’re weird.
A lot of people have it – that fantasy of being lord or lady of the manor, either in the present or at some time in history.
My parents sent me from Venezuela to the Convent of Our Lady, a boarding school in Hastings, which was horrible – like Harry Potter without the magic. Sometimes we went into town, and if we were caught chewing gum in our uniform, members of the public would take down our names and report us to the school.
My best friend and I go to bed at 11 o’clock. We have such old lady schedules. Everyone’s always like, ‘Let’s go out!’ And we’re always like, ‘No, we don’t want to.’ They call us the grandmas. L.A. can get really old really quickly if you waste your life away in a club all night.
My upbringing was in the church. We had to attend regularly. And, of course, the church provided a training ground for me, so to speak, as a young vocalist and certainly gave me all of the spiritual values that I needed as a young lady.
I don’t feel like the ‘first,’ or the last, or a lady. I am Brigitte Macron!
I view myself as being the average woman. While I am first lady, I wasn’t first lady my whole life. I’m a product of pop culture. I’m a consumer of pop culture, and I know what resonates with people.
Looking into Linda’s eyes when she walks down the aisle, and knowing that’s the lady I’m going to be with for the rest of my life. I’m going to be crying like a fool. But I knew from the moment I met her that she was the one for me.
