"This is the church of fashion," Gaga said of the new issue. "If you don't have respect for what Daphne and Steven Klein and I are doing, you don't have a clue, really. Daphne reminds me that it's okay to be in pain all the time. She taught me to go for it. Always. F--k it. People just can't understand being in pain constantly for art. The way we handle emotional pain is by inflicting some sort of physical pain on ourselves for an art that we love."
