Lady Gaga says working on American Horror Story: Hotel was about "getting into bed" with Ryan Murphy's mind.

"I know what maybe everyone thinks happens is that I get a script and I go, 'Oh yay, a foursome!'," Gaga told The Hollywood Reporter on the set of the show. "It's just not like that. I don't just simply do things because things are provocative, or because they are shocking. I'm doing it because the story that he's telling about addiction, the story that he's telling about our own narcissism, the story that he's telling about how the human being strives to survive within the challenges of the universe... That to me is what makes the sex so good."

She continued: "I just told Ryan that I wanted to play a dangerous woman that was fearless and he did just that. I mostly told him that because I wanted to extend to him what it is that I extend to every person I collaborate with, which is all of me: my past, my present, my future, all of it, in one, all the time. I really just wanted to work on something that I truly could put my heart and soul into that I would believe in fully. And also, it's kinda nice to be on the bottom sometimes, and not be on top and just let somebody else to be in control of my desire to make things. We're not just doing this together side by side. This is about me completely getting into bed with his mind and this world that he has created for you to discover things about yourself that you did not know you liked."

American Horror Story: Hotel debuts tomorrow at 10 pm on FX.
