Lady Gaga has become one of the most successful artists today. Many people and publications even refer to her as a "living icon," adding that her name "precedes the human."
With her fame and success, it is not surprising why fans continue to praise and love her. However, the Chromatica artist revealed that this has made things quite challenging and "hard" for her, according to Cheat Sheet.
In one of her interviews, Gaga said that she loves people "so much." But, because of her current stardom, it has become too difficult for her not to be able to connect with them in a "real and honest way."
She explained that this happens due to the public's perception of her. People "either want something" from her or see her in a way she is not.
In the end, though, the "Born This Way" singer stated that her real purpose is not to be a "representation of celebrity." Instead of a "human in need of admiration," she is a "conduit for conveying emotions via music." She added that she wanted to help everyone "heal and find happiness" through her music.
Lady Gaga appears to have stayed true to her words as she always uses her music in inspiring others. This is one of the many reasons why the public loves her and all of her works.
However, this was not the case at all during her younger years. As Mic reported, her story to fame will make people appreciate and love her more, not only because of her music but, because of her character, as well.
The publication said that Lady Gaga's entire career is a "story of her resilience." She experienced bullying from her formative years and obtained lots of bad reviews when she was starting in the industry.
But, despite all of these things, she is "always overcoming."
These days, Lady Gaga continues to give back to the public. Apart from making music and inspiring others through it, she, also, does several movements and campaigns to raise funds to help those who are in need.
In 2020, following the release of her latest studio album, Chromatica, she teamed up with Global Citizen, an international advocacy group, and organized a virtual concert amid the pandemic crisis, according to Biography.
The concert, which, also, featured Taylor Swift, Paul McCartney, and Elton John, raised over $127 million. The funds all went to the collective effort of the organization to fight the pandemic crisis.
