Does Gaga have a New York accent?

She has a subtle accent, one classic giveaway is how she says Mary, merry, and marry (all three with a different vowel).

Honestly it’s more that she has a Manhattan accent. Plus, I think when you get classically trained vocally it has a tendency to impact your speaking voice as well. You start articulating yourself differently since you notice the hard difference between “slack” enunciation and “proper” (obviously this is by the standards of classical vocal technique and not at all a dig at slang or common speech patterns).

This!

It's subtle, but it's there. She's learned to suppress it over the years, and it's certainly changed with all the traveling. You hear it mostly in some of her earliest interviews from 2008. It's also all over the bridge in the "Bad Romance" demo.

Omg I’d never heard that bridge before. The way she says walk

 I remember being a dumb bitch and thinking this was the original always asking myself why the audio in the mv sounded better
