Lady Gaga: "I don't wanna fight to look young & trendy!"
Quote:
n the interview, accompanied by Lady Gaga's first ever unretouched cover shoot by Bruce Weber, Gaga also speaks about the pressures of being a pop star.
"As a 29-year-old girl, at this stage in my pop career everybody goes, 'Oh she's getting old,' and everybody's so worried about having a perfect body, a perfect face, and perfect hair,"
Gaga says.
"When, you know, actually, legacy and longevity is about having some sort of story and footprint to leave in the world when you die, chasing your talent until you're dead. And that, as an artist, you love your art 'til death. It's the antithesis of what I was taught growing up, which is that at this age I would have to fight in order to continue to look young, in order to continue to be trendy. When, you know, I never was trendy. I was always anti-trend."
