I used to walk down the street like I was a fucking star... I want people to walk around delusional about how great they can be - and then to fight s… - Lady Gaga

Those girls were there because someone told them they were ‘beautiful,’ but in high fashion, beautiful isn’t enough.

My new album that I'm creating, which is finished pretty much, was written with this new instinctual energy that I've developed getting to know my fans. They protect me, so now it's my destiny to protect them.

I am a feminist. I reject wholeheartedly the way we are taught to perceive women. The beauty of women, how a woman should act or behave. Women are strong and fragile. Women are beautiful and ugly. We are soft-spoken and loud, all at once. There is something mind-controlling about the way we're taught to view women. My work, both visually and musically, is a rejection of all those things. And most importantly a quest.
