Despite swirling rumors, Lady Gaga's brand new song "Perfect Illusion" is not targeted at her ex-fiancé Taylor Kinney. Speaking to Andy Cohen on Sirius XM, Gaga described that track as a rage against "perfect illusions" in modern life and added that she would never use a song to publicly diss a friend.
"'Perfect Illusion' is about a lot of different people in my life, a lot of different things," she said. "I wrote this song with Kevin Parker from Tame Impala, and BloodPop, and Mark Ronson. The record is about being so intoxicated with love, so high dilated, falling free in a modern ecstasy that you wake up one day and you can't believe that it was not real. 'How did that happen? How did I do that?' And the song is raging against that experience. And I think also it's really hard for people to date today."
Gaga continued: "I love Taylor so so much. This song is not a hit-out against Taylor. He's my best friend. This song is just about not only feelings that I've had, but that he's had, that my friends have had, my sister has in her relationship. It's a record about all of us. I would never use my song or want to use the public to hurt anyone that I love so much."
