Prejudice is a disease. And when they come for you, or refuse your worth, I will be ready for their stones. I belong to you.

Where I come from it was really unheard of to be at a party and someone says, 'What kind of music do you make?', and you say, 'Pop music.' You may as well have 'I'm not cool' stamped on your forehead.

I have a whole second act of ARTPOP and I love it.

Some artists want your money so they can buy Range Rovers and diamond bracelets, but I don't care about that kind of stuff. I want your soul.

I will always have a very deep love for Amy Winehouse.

I was performing in New York and my friends started to call me Gaga. They said I was very theatrical... So they said, you're Gaga.

My mother always wanted to give back.
