Lady Gaga<\/strong> may be an Oscar-nominated actress, beauty mogul and global icon, but she says her relationship with the Little Monsters who supported her back when she was “just” a singer is still going strong.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Vogue<\/em> about the fans who showed up at the London premiere of her new film,\u00a0Joker:\u00a0Folie \u00e0 Deux,<\/em> Gaga said, “It’s hard to describe almost two decades long of a relationship with this community.”<\/p>\n

“When I first came out, a lot of interviewers all over the world wanted to ask me about my clothes,” she continued. “I would often get made fun of … or there would be a lot of probing questions: ‘Why the stage persona? Why the name? Why all of it?'”<\/p>\n

However, “My fans always felt that I wasn’t really that weird. I feel like my fans always have kind of had a secret handshake with me of, like, you know, ‘We’ve got you … we know who you are … you don’t have to apologize for who you are.’ I still feel that way.”<\/p>\n

“That’s really cool, to run into fans at a movie premiere when you’re 38 and you’re still, like, doing hand signals and going like, ‘It’s cool, just be yourself.'”<\/p>\n

Gaga also tells Vogue<\/em> that a song on her new album,\u00a0Harlequin,\u00a0<\/em>is a “very, very personal look” at herself and, as she puts it, “my relationship with playing broken women throughout my career, in different ways.”<\/p>\n

Gaga mentions a line from the song “Happy Mistake<\/a>“: “A lonely disposition\/ portrait of a strung-out girl\/ How did I get so addicted to the love of the whole world?”<\/p>\n

“It’s kind of a confession of what it’s like to live dual identities,” she says. “The ultimate confessional Lady Gaga song, in a way.”<\/p>\n
