18 Comments | Follow us on TwitterT Magazine — In the contemporary fashion dialogue, no celebrity is paid more lip service than Lady Gaga. Such is her reach that the Global Language Monitor recently revealed that “Lady Gaga” topped the list of the most searched fashion terms, with “no pants” a close third. The Moment recently caught up with the fashion plate du jour, who was surprisingly candid and dressed in mufti — an outfit of checked shirt, black tights and vertiginous heels that brought to mind Mary-Kate without the grande nonfat latte — to talk about everything from her new gig as a mouthpiece for M.A.C. and its AIDS fund to her constantly referring to herself in the third person.
I have to say that meeting you is rather odd. It’s like interviewing Mr. T. What to call you?
[Laughs] Lady Gaga or Gaga is fine. Everyone calls me one of the two, and it’s very normal. I think it’s mostly about being in my world and understanding what I do. Everyone here is around the magic that happens when I work with, say, Terence Koh or Francesco Vezzoli or Frank Gehry. When you’re around me and really see that all I do is live and breathe for my work, it’s not strange, it’s just Gaga.
Got it. Before we turned on the tape recorder, I was talking to you about betrayal. Is that something you think about more than ever?
Absolutely. You have no idea. More than dealing with betrayal, though, what is really hard is that I have had to leave my past behind me. It’s hard knowing who to trust with your personal life. When you cry in your room at night, you don’t always know who to call. So I am very close to my family.
Why would you disconnect yourself from your past?
I left it behind because I had to. For many reasons, like drugs. It’s no secret that I have had problems with drugs in the past. And some places represent to me things in terms of my mental and physical health, so you learn to move on, to preserve what your mission in life is, and my greater mission is my fans.

1 Comment | Follow us on TwitterInStyle’s Entertainment Editor met Lady Gaga and Cyndi Lauper to talk style, sex and celibacy – and she discovered the girls just wanna have fun… safely.
Monday’s launch of MAC’s new Viva Glam lipsticks was extra special because I got to meet and interview the campaign’s new faces – Lady GaGa and 80s pop legend Cyndi Lauper. My inner gay man could barely contain himself.
The ladies were in town to promote the MAC. campaign – From Our Lips – and to also spread the word about safe sex for women. Did you know that we ladies are more likely to become infected with HIV than men? Nope – us either.
That’s why every penny (excluding VAT) from the sale of the Viva Glam lipsticks goes towards the MAC AIDS Fund. (Lady GaGa’s shade is a gorgeous candy pink and Cyndi’s is a luscious coral red),
I can report that far from being intimidating divas both stars were charm personified. GaGa is petite and slender (nowhere near the emaciated figure some papers would have you believe) while Cyndi is quirky, sweet and spoke so softly you could barely hear her.
But before we got down to the serious stuff I just had to find out what GaGa was wearing (yep, she was making another brave fashion statement). ‘My shoes are from a sex shop and so are my lace tights. Since we’re talking about sex today it’s kind of appropriate!’ she laughed. ‘This [points to her lace bodysuit] is actually a dress that I pinned to make it look like a leotard – it was a gift from the Pet Shop Boys who are my friends. They had their costume designer make it for me. And the hat is by Charlie Le Mindu.’
But they weren’t in London meeting zillions of journos just to talk about their wardrobes. So let’s hear it from the girls…

On her ex:
“I had a boyfriend who told me I’d never succeed, never be nominated for a Grammy, never have a hit song, and that he hoped I’d fail. I said to him, ‘Someday, when we’re not together, you won’t be able to order a cup of coffee a the f***ing deli without hearing or seeing me.”
On her career:
“I ate sh** for so long, being told I didn’t fit the mold and that I was ‘too pop’ or ‘too theater’…I’ve always been delusionally ambitious to the point where people don’t understand me.”

5 Comments | Follow us on TwitterThe sky’s the limit for Lady Gaga — the young, mysterious and daring pop star — who’s charted a record four No. 1 hits off her first album, “The Fame.” With her outrageous outfits, sexually charged songs, and blood soaked performances, she has singlehandedly redefined just how far out “outlandish fashion” can be.
In an interview with Barbara Walters, Lady Gaga, 23, talked about her skyrocketing career, her family, and what she believes is the biggest misconception about her.
“That I am artificial and attention-seeking, when the truth is that, every bit of me is … devoted to love and art,” Gaga told Walters. “I am a songwriter. I’m a performance artist. I’m a daughter and a sister.

11 Comments | Follow us on TwitterReporting from Boston – Almost immediately after she deposited herself in a corner booth at L’Espalier, the restaurant at Boston’s Mandarin Oriental Hotel on the December afternoon after the first American date of her Monster Ball tour, Lady Gaga made a confounding statement.
“I don’t see myself as ever being like anybody else,” said the 23-year-old known to her mom (eating lunch nearby) as Stefani Germanotta. “I don’t see myself as an heir.”
Yet there she was, in a blond Hollywood bob and black tuxedo-bra combo much like the costumes Madonna wore 20 years ago, discussing a show that conjures the spirits of Michael Jackson, David Bowie and the punk-rock drag queens of downtown New York and promoting music — the newly expanded edition of her 2008 debut album, “The Fame,” greatly enriched by eight new songs and repackaged as “The Fame Monster” — that pays blatant homage to ABBA, Queen, Eurodisco and Marilyn Manson.
Gaga doesn’t care. She wants you to trace her references. ” John Lennon talked about how with every song he wrote, he was thinking of another artist,” she said, making a less expected connection to a pop deity.
