She once had a monkey on her back, thinks the freaks are the regular Joes in middle America (not artists like her), and tends to talk in such a garbled fashion (marbles in mouth syndrome) that - at times - the Pop Diva is difficult to comprehend.
What did I think was rude?
Lady Gaga appeared on Larry King Live! behind ubiquitous - but “cool”-looking dark shades - which shielded her face for the most part.
Actually, It was a very butch look when teamed with her short-cropped hair, man’s white shirt, and snazzy black suspenders.
When Larry compared Lady Gaga to Madonna, she beamed, and noted that the material girl was a wonderful friend and incredibly supportive.
“There are no bad comparisons to Madonna, because she’s great,” Lady G gushed without holding back.
When the chat turned to religion, the chart-topper noted that she was raised a Catholic.
In spite of a solid religious foundation provided during her youth, Lady Gaga admitted she still struggled with her feelings about the church.
“In terms of religion, I’m very religious, and I believe in God.”
In spite of that, she confided to Larry King that she’s still confused about religion and would like more peace in respect to the issue.
She was quick to add that she didn’t feel any prejudice towards other sects or religious organizations.
The talented musician is also an advocate of gay rights.
Her admiration for the LGBT community arises from what she described as their “joyful courage” and their ability to be “brave” in the face of adversity.
For the record, Lady Gaga was inclined to note that all her friends tend to be homosexual.
“Gay men never wanted anything from me,” she added almost as an after thought.
Curiously, when Larry probed further about her own sexuality, Lady Gaga became tongue-tied.
Although reluctant to confide in Larry “point-blank” about her sexual persuasion - Lady Gaga confessed that - like so many others - she’s looking for love.
Right now, fans satisfy that need for love.
Children?
In her own inimitable way, she explained:
“My womb is not beckoning for a child right now.”
On the issue of coming clean - getting off cocaine, for instance - she was pretty dismissive.
“It was ruining my life.”
By her account, it was not difficult to get the monkey off-her-back.
Lady Gaga looked embarrassed when King made mention of her generous spirit.
“At a Local pub in Birmingham, you picked up everyone’s tab. True?”
Awkwardly, the - at times shy-and-retiring Pop Diva - admitted it was.
“I am blessed,” she asserted.
Entertaining 17, 000 fans at a concert is a thrilling experience. she noted for the record.
“If you weren’t in show business, what would you be doing,” Larry probed further.
Without skipping-a-beat, she laughed.
“I am show business."
“So, I wouldn’t be here," she chirped up in all sincerity.
The “Just Dance” album - which was released in 2008 - was a ureka! moment in which her act, persona, and stage image all came together.
Lady Gaga hasn’t “looked back” since.
Although fans will be disappointed, the musical wonder will not be releasing a new album ‘til after Christmas.
“I need more time to give fans what they deserve.”
In the meantime, Lady Gaga intends to perform live and travel the world.
The Lady is spreading her wings!
God speed!
