Lady Gaga talks possible collaboration with Sam Smith

Sam Smith claims he's Lady Gaga's biggest fan and says he would love to make music with his idol.

"I'm the biggest Gaga fan there is," Smith, who is up for an Academy Award for Spectre's "Writing's on the Wall, told The Hollywood Reporter during a pre-Oscars photoshoot. "I queued up for her shows when I was 17!"

Speaking of a possible collaboration, Gaga said: "Maybe it will be awful. Maybe it will be great."

Sam Smith has been a massive Lady Gaga fan (and a Gaga Daily reader!) since he was a teenager.

"When I was 16 years old I was living in a tiny village in Cambridgeshire," Smith wrote in a note in his tour book. "I had such huge dreams of being a singer and an artist and had been trying my hardset to break out for so long. It was at that point that I became obsessed with Lady Gaga. It started out as an admiration for her music then became an obsession with her story, her hustle, her bravery and also her voice for gay people. It got to the point where I would check GagaDaily.com almost 8 times a day and I stood in line twice for 10 hours to see her and be front row. I dressed like her, I even bunked school for a day to see her and got in a lot of trouble."

The 88th Academy Awards will take place on February 28th in Hollywood.
