Sydney
(ANI):
Lady
Gaga
has
revealed
what
art
means
to
her
and
how
it
has
heavily
influenced
her
persona
and
music.
The
23-year-old
singer
linked
her
unusual
wardrobe
and
shocking
stage
antics
to
her
passion
for
the
aesthetics.
"Everyone
wonders
who
Lady
Gaga
is.
Who
is
the
person
behind
the
make-up
and
the
glasses?" The
Sydney
Morning
Herald
quoted
her
as
saying
during
a
sit-down
chat
with
Fairfax
in
New
York.
“I'm
a
performance
artist
and
this
is
what
I
do.
Art
is
a
lie
and
every
day
I
kill
to
make
it
true,"
she
added.
The
Poke
Face
hitmaker
further
explained
the
idea
behind
her
shock
performance
at
this
year"s
MTV
Awards
when
she
left
the
audience
gasping
as
she
writhed
on
stage
with
fake
blood
flowing
from
her
chest
and
eyes.
She
said:
"That,
for
me,
was
the
first
truly
original
thing
I've
done.
I
wanted
to
do
something
that
was
emblematic
of
the
death
of
celebrity.
“The
demise
of
the
blonde
women
that
we
worship,
kind
of
paint
a
picture
of
Marilyn
Monroe
with
a
bottle
of
pills
in
her
hand."
