Video 1

Lady Gaga is one of the brightest stars in the sky of pop culture, Godmother of Zachary the son of Elton John and his partner, Times and Forbes named her one of the most influential people on earth, She's sold almost 70 million albums. Unlike many she shocks and provokes with her behavior, outfits, and music videos. Throughout her 5 year career, she was able to gain a large group of loyal fans.

Interviewer: Your polish fans have sent you a birthday video on youtube.

Gaga: I will look, I've been looking at so many of them, they're so sweet

Inteviewer: Do you still get nervous while going on stage or is it just a shot of adrenaline?

Gaga: Not on stage, no, see whats funny is the fans are a safe space. I'm so close to them, that I am not scared, I feel at home. Whereas, sharing my music with the world, other than the fans that is scary, and it's scary because you're bearing your soul, but the fans no, I was never scared around the fans. I feel at home with them, the stage is my home, but they know that.

Interviewer: Theres a song on the new album called "Edge of Glory" dedicated to your grandfather, tell us the story

Gaga: Well the song "The Edge of Glory", yes its about my grandfather, but also it was inspired by the experience of his passing, it was the first experience with death in that way, anyone I have lost up until that point has been from sickness, overdose, or just the end of a friendship. It was the first time I was saying good bye to somebody who was dying of old age and when I was sitting next to my father, at home by the piano, we were about to go to the hospital, we were drinking tequila, and suddenly, I began to write the lyrics and the melody "I'm on the edge of glory, and I'm hanging on the moment of truth, Im on the edge of glory, and I'm hanging on a moment with you" It's all about in that last moment of life, when you're touching the tip of the edge, how you decide you've won you've won at life, and that makes it easier to take that jump. I saw my grandmother who was with my grandfather for 60 years, she was looking at him and she said " It's ok, if you want you can go," and I saw, in that moment, as if he had won at life, and I won thanks to her.

Interviewer: Early today you said that this morning, after waking up, you had written a song that could make it onto your album last minute, does that show that your artistry is a never ending process with no end and no beginning?

Gaga: Yeah, absolutely, I don't view individual albums as a reinvention of myself or to rebrand or change, I'm just always making music, and when I feel I have completed a part of my art I stop

Interviewer: Does, Gaga, as a stage performer, have any biggest accomplishment, or is it just the last show?

Gaga: Well I would hope the second, that my biggest achievement is the last show, but I haven't shown anything yet, you haven't even begun to see what I have to offer, I'm very excited for my fans and the whole world to hear my new album. Not only did I work very hard on it, I truly believe it's a masterpiece, and I wouldn't say that unless I didn't believe it

******* If you press "Tajemnice Lady Gagi-1" under the "Wideo 2" part there will be another (the first) part of the interview************

Interviewer: First of all, Happy belated birthday from a different time zone, here's a gift, Led Zeppelin, your childhood inspiration.

Gaga: Wow, wow, thank you so much, its's so amazing, talk about inspiration, I don't even want to open it.

Interviewer: And now you claim that your only inspiration are your fans, when did you first realize that you share something special, a unique bond?

Gaga: It's very strange to explain, or even begin to justify the relationship we have, the fans sort of unexpectedly became my friends, and the show, The Monsterball, was this conversation. It's a conversation about music, fashion, art, society, religion. And every night we talk, and we cry, and we laugh together and it's really beautiful.

Interviewer: Would you say your biggest accomplishment is blurring the boundary between the artist and the audience?

Gaga: We are one, and I think what you mean is that we are one and the same, I don't exist without them. For the Born This Way video, what I was trying to say is that as much as I gave birth to the music and the fans, they gave birth to me. I sing and I do what they want me to do. It's like I'm so into what they're seeing, that its like musical telepathy.

Interviewer: There is also no difference between Gaga the performer, and Gaga the person, you're the same person?

Gaga: The same, yeah, I think there is no difference between how I am on television and how I am in private and I think all great artists are always private in public, and I think one of the biggest challenges and struggles is trying to be constantly private in public at all times

**************************************************************************************************************************

The other video is just about the Interviewers reactions on meeting Gaga and listening to Born This Way.

He said that he believes that she is real and genuine and that Gaga the performer is just another side of Gaga in private. He said that with other world wide artists he has to submit the questions for approval, while for Gaga it was just the topics of the interview. She said that she's very knowledgeable about music and Led Zeppelin, and that he gave her a rare special edition of their CD which she didn't have. He said that Born This Way is a large variety of 80's music inspiration and something for everybody, he said his favorite song is Scheiße :worship: , it's a large party. She likes to look you in the eye, and and genuinely listens to you, she's very grounded and natural.

They accidentally said "Edge of Glory" during the video that played "Speechless" but they apologized for the mistake on the page

I would have asked her more about Led Zeppelin and rock music. :flutter:

Thanks for posting.

Yeah, that would be cool, but I guess the whole purpose was Born This Way promo since it was the beginning of the era

Private In Public XD

I know right! She said it twice, but that was 2 years ago, maybe the whole decay theme was still the theme for "The Next One"
