Lady Gaga, music legend and film star: Inside the chaos

Mark Savage, the BBC’s music correspondent, speaks to Lady Gaga, American singer-songwriter and actress, as she reflects on the making of her new album, the joy of attracting a younger audience and finding happiness in love.

Born Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta in 1986, Lady Gaga has spent 18 years in the music industry and sold over 170 million records. She’s an actress as well as a musician and even has her own vegan cosmetic brand.

In 2019, Time magazine named her one of the 100 most influential people in the world.

Known for her flamboyant fashion and bold public image, Lady Gaga has often found herself in the glare of the media spotlight - and her latest work touches on the complex relationship she has with fame.

In this interview, you’ll hear her thoughts on art and identity, being a super-fan of Elton John, and the lack of female role models in the music industry, The Interview brings you conversations with people shaping our world, from all over the world.
