Q&A: Lady Gaga’s thoughts on 12-inch platforms, Twitter, and her little monsters
I feel like this was a serendipitous meeting, because we were supposed to meet in March and you had just come back from the Mugler show, and you’re on tour, and your publicist said, “She’s got to stop the interviews because she is exhausted.” How are you feeling?
I’m feeling great. It was a very, very busy day.
I can just imagine your schedule is a whirlwind. How do you not get depleted with all your energy?
Well, that was such an exciting day for me, and if I could describe my artistic process, I would say that I make music for my fans, and for the Haus of Gaga, and I create work for my factory. Nick [Formichetti] was one of the most important people in my life, and his work at Mugler is so beautiful and so forward, and so natural, and so pop-whimsical, and it was so exciting for me to enjoy that moment with him, and for him to honor me in a way and bless me with the opportunity to walk the runway, and to represent his collection.
You had fun that day.
I had such a wonderful time! And in that way that is the most punk-rock thing about what we do in the Haus of Gaga, is that we make music and fashion and technology for the fans and for each other.
Were you nervous that day?
I admire and respect all of the supermodels of the past and the future, and I wanted to be one of them and to do it justice. So I was practicing my walk and I had 12-inch platforms.
