——A glamorous life is quite different to a life of luxury. I don't need luxury. For years, I was practically broke but I was still very vain and glamorous. And I still am. ——I don't want to sound presumptuous, but I've made it my goal to revolutionise pop music. The last revolution was launched by Madonna 25 years ago. ——The turning point for me was the gay community. I've got so many gay fans and they're so loyal to me and they really lifted me up. They'll always stand by me and I'll always stand by them. It's not an easy thing to create a fanbase. ——Paris and Nicky Hilton went to my school. They're very pretty, and very, very clean. It's impressive to be that perfect all the time. In commercial terms, they've been quite an influence on me. ——I am really inspired by the Italians like Gabbana, Versace and Gucci. But I am looking it in that way and trying to make my own. ——Some artists want your money so they can buy Range Rovers and diamond bracelets, but I don't care about that kind of stuff. I want your soul. ——Some women choose to follow a man and some others their dreams. In case that you wonder which way to follow, remember that your career won't wake up one morning to say that he doesn't love you. ——A girl's got to use what she's given and I'm not going to make a guy drool the way a Britney video does. So I take it to extremes. I don't say I dress sexily on stage - what I do is so extreme. It's meant to make guys think: 'I don't know if this is sexy or just weird.' ——My grandmother is basically blind, but she can make out the lighter parts, like my skin and hair. She says, "I can see you, because you have no pants on." So I'll continue to wear no pants so that my grandma can see me. ——The Fame is about how anyone can feel famous. Pop culture is art. It doesn't make you cool to hate pop culture, so I embraced it and you hear it all over The Fame. But, it's a sharable fame. I want to invite you all to the party. I want people to feel a part of this lifestyle. —— You asked me who Lady Gaga was, but even after I show you, you're still not going to know who I really am.Lady Gaga is my name. If you know me, and you call me Stefani, you don't really know me at all. ——I was completely mental and had just been through so much. I hit rock bottom, and it was enough to send a person over the edge. My mother knew the truth about that day, and she screamed so loud on the other end of the phone, I'll never forget it. I cried. I told her I thought my life was over and I have no hope and I’ve worked so hard, and I knew I was good. What would I do now? And she said, ‘I'm gonna let you cry for a few more hours. And then after those few hours are up, you're gonna stop crying, you're gonna pick yourself up, you're gonna go back to New York, and you're gonna kick some ass. ——It was my dad who pulled me back. I wanted to show my parents I was completely wild. My dad thought I'd lost it. He came to see me and told me if I didn't pull back I would lose everything. That completely shook me, because even though I wanted to rebel, my parents are the people I respect most in this world. I didn't want to lose my father's respect, so I stopped. As a performer I'm outrageous and wild, but as a person I have a very strong moral code. To this day I feel guilt about what I put my parents through when I was younger. I'll call my mother out of the blue and say, 'Mom, I'm so sorry about what I did.' They're very proud of me today, but I wouldn't have their pride if I hadn't listened to them and told them I was sorry. It's as important to acknowledge your mistakes as it is to get credit for your victories. ——I have a small bunch of really creative people who make up the Haus and they work with me on my sets, my costumes, my jewelery and the concept of GaGa. It's my team and we come up with crazy ideas and make them happen. I do make a lot of money, but I don't want to own flash cars; I want to make Lady GaGa the biggest star in the world, and that takes a lot of work and creativity. ——Fight and push harder for what you believe in, you'd be surprised, you are much stronger than you think. ——For some people, fame kills it and becomes more important than the music or the performance. But for me fame is like rocket fuel. The more my fans like what I'm doing, the more I want to give back to them. ——I want my fans to know I'm there for them. I want them to see every part of me. I am never going to leave them ——When I wake up in the morning, I feel just like any other insecure 24-year old girl. Then I say,'Bitch, you're Lady Gaga, you get up and walk the walk today. ——I want to have a husband who loves and supports me, just the way anyone else does, I am a very sentimental person and family is important to me. ——I am focused on the work. I am constantly creating. I am a busy girl. I live and breathe my work. I love what I do. I believe in the message. There's no stopping. I didn’t create the fame, the fame created me. ——I am beautiful in my way,'cause God makes no mistakes!I am on the right track.Baby,I was Born This Way! ——I don't care if my fans love me,I care if they love themselves. ——If the senate and the president are not going to repeal this'don't ask, don't tell.'policy, perhaps they should be more clear with us about who the military is fighting for, who our tax dollars are supporting and, ultimately, how much does the prime rib cost? ——If we don't stand up for what we believe in and if we don't fight for our rights, pretty soon we're going to have as much rights as the meat on our bones.  更多文章
