Lady Gaga gave a beautiful speech as she accepted the Artist Award at Grammy Museum's annual Jane Ortner Education Award Luncheon in Beverly Hills on Monday. During the speech, the singer thanked her vocal teachers, her band and her friends, and urged the audience not to pay attention to fame and money because it "ain't s--t" compared to the music.
"I would like to say, in the spirit of this wonderful evening and all of the blessings that we have today," Gaga said. "I think it's so great for us all to leave tonight with an inner sense of inspiration to help other people feel a genuine authentic love for music that is beyond becoming famous, beyond making money, beyond becoming a star, beyond looking like you have it all. Because I can tell you that stuff ain't s--t compared to the records. The records are where it's at."
Gaga then took the stage with the Brian Newman quintet to perform her favorite jazz standards, including "La Vie En Rose" and "New York, New York." Watch below!
