Spotify Presents: Little Monster Press Conference[]

The Spotify Presents: Little Monster Press Conference is an exclusive fan event hosted by Lady Gaga in collaboration with Spotify. Scheduled for March 6, 2025, the event precedes the release of her seventh studio album, MAYHEM, set to launch on March 7, 2025. In February 2025, Gaga announced her partnership with Spotify to create an interactive platform where fans could pose questions and discuss her upcoming album. She stated:
| “ | Since the beginning of my career, the most important thing has always been community to me. It was the community of musicians, artists, photographers, and club promoters, all my friends that I lived with on the Lower East Side—they ushered me into being the artist that I am today. The reason I really wanted to do this with Spotify was to celebrate the community that I have with my fans now, and who we are today, and give the fans the chance to ask me all of the questions that they might have garnered for the past almost 20 years. I'm always happy to do interviews, but I do think that there will be something unique and rare and special for it to come from the fans. | ” |

The press conference is scheduled to be live-streamed on March 6, 2025, at 6:00 PM EST, across Spotify's official Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube accounts. Fans worldwide can submit their questions in advance through the dedicated website, LittleMonsterPressConference.com. In a video announcement, Gaga encouraged fans to "feel free to ask me whatever you want!"

- Transcription
Benito Skinner: Hi everyone! I'm Benito Skinner. I'm so honored-- Stop! Stop it! I'm so honored to be celebrating Mayhem with you. We're going to do a little press conference. Are you ready? Can we do this? Everybody! Lady Gaga! [Applause and cheer]. Lady Gaga enters a conference room and goes to her table with microphones] That's Lady Gaga.
Lady Gaga: Hello. Hi, everybody! I'm so happy to see you. Thank you so much for being here today. [Applause and cheer]
Benito Skinner: The album-- wait, the album, the album--
Lady Gaga: The album.
Benito Skinner: It's Gaga--
Lady Gaga: [Turns to the audience] Do you like it?
Audience: Yes! [Applause and cheer]
Benito Skinner: You're in big trouble, you're in big trouble for that.
Lady Gaga: Thank you. Thank you. I like being in trouble. I'm so happy to be here. It’s kind of surreal, honestly. And I was just so excited for you to hear the music, and I can't wait to hear what you're going to ask me. Welcome to the press conference! [Applause and cheer]
Mario: I'm Mario.
Lady Gaga: Hello, Mario!
Mario: [Laughs] It's been a long time--
Lady Gaga: I’ve seen you before.
Mario: [Laughs] So, you know our history— I put you on to a rapper, Azealia [Banks]. And my question is, did you see her tweets about "Disease"? Like, she was praising it!
Lady Gaga: I did! [Cheer]
Mario: Work! You know, justice for "Ratchet"...
Lady Gaga: That too!
Mario: But yeah, that's my--
Lady Gaga: This really is a Little Monsters press conference.
Mario: I was like, how many seconds [? in this party is going to be brought up ?], but yaaas! Yaaas! Okay!
Lady Gaga: It might as well be 5:00 a.m.
Fan: Hi, Diva!
Lady Gaga: Hi!
Fan: It has also been a long time--
Lady Gaga: Hi, Diva!
Fan: So good to see you!
Lady Gaga: It’s good to see you!
Fan: In the way that you made the Harlequin album for the character, if Mayhem had a character that you constructed the album for, who would it be?
Lady Gaga: The lady you've known for the last 20 years! [Applause and cheer]
Fan: Thank you!
Lady Gaga: You know, I think that Mayhem for me, is actually this integration of who I am in real life and who I am on stage, and how I really started to celebrate bringing those two things together, two things that don't really go together, actually. It turns out, that’s the whole me. And this album is like-- it holds all that tension: the softness of who I am on the inside and then the intensity that I like to bring to my music and to my stage performances. How do I hold that in one place? For me, that's my personal mayhem, otherwise known as exercises in chaos.
Benito Skinner: Okay! Just someone stand up - I love you!
Fan: Rapper from [???] [Applause and cheer] My one question is, what's the tea on "Telephone" Part Two? [Cheer]
Lady Gaga: Somebody get my kettle!
Fan: One sec!
Lady Gaga: Thank you. The tea on “Telephone” Part Two is that there will be. [Applause and cheer screaming "Yeah!"] But I’m not going to give it all away. You wouldn’t want that anyway!
Fan: A sneak peek, a taste, or something?
Lady Gaga: I mean, I think that you should all call Beyoncé, together!
Fan: [Laughs] Right!
Lady Gaga: [Hums] Here! Yes! Silk button down... or is it velvet? It's-- It's velvet! I'm sorry.
Fan: It's like fake cheap velvet though.
Lady Gaga: It's fab!
Fan: Thank you, mother. Oh, I stand up. Sorry! I didn't stand up. First of all, the album, mother... oh my God... Incredible! Obviously, we all love "Die With a Smile" on that album--
Lady Gaga: Thank you!
Fan: --an incredible collaboration. I would love to know, what is a dream collaboration of yours? If you could choose anyone, living or dead, to collaborate with, who would it be?
Lady Gaga: Oh wow! I think it would have been John Lennon. [Applause] I think he had such a beautiful heart. I think that’s one of my favorite things in the history of music is when you don’t just remember an artist for their music but you remember them for their heart. So, I think, I would-- [She points to her peace sign tattoo on her wrist] I mean I have the peace sign tattoo, and this peace sign was right outside 72nd street by the Dakota, where he was sadly taken from the world, but that peace sign was there every day and Yoko [Ono] would put flowers outside. And I got this tattoo because of that. I never forgot what he stood for and it’s what I stand for too. [Applause and cheer] Mmmm... The hat! [Cheer]
Roy: Hi Gaga!
Lady Gaga: Hi!
Roy: My name is Roy.
Lady Gaga: Hi!
Roy: I love you!
Lady Gaga: I love you!
Roy: That goes without saying. In "Abracadabra", you say, "Don't waste time on a feeling, use your passion, no return." How does it feel to know that all the passion you have put into the New York City night life has been shaped by that passion of yours? I cannot imagine going out in Manhattan or Brooklyn without hearing Gaga at any bar. And if I don't hear Gaga, then I’m getting out of that fucking bar! [Laughs] [Applause and cheer]
Lady Gaga: I mean, New York completely shaped who I am as an artist. And I didn’t want to leave New York when it was time to go to college because I felt like I hadn't seen it all yet. I’ve been talking about this a lot recently, but being on the Lower East Side, especially with Lady Starlight...
Roy: Shout out! [Applause and cheer]
Lady Gaga: ...an amazing musician! That time was so special, because I had this community, and I was living in this area basically where everyone was a musician, or a writer, or a photographer, or a dancer, or a club promoter, a bartender... It's like working in the arts and nightlife. We all supported each other. I would never have created my stage performances and my persona if that community had not existed. It means a lot for my music to still play in New York. Just to see you all here so vibrantly, like that time-- it makes me feel like it's still alive in you.
Roy: It’s very alive in all of us. [Applause and cheer]
Lady Gaga: It's really like a total privilege. And I feel like that time taught me so much. Community is everything. The further away I got from that community, the harder it was for me to maintain my center of gravity. But I will say, I went back recently, and it was really, really special.
Roy: Yas! Paws up forever, Gaga! Love you!
Lady Gaga: Thank you! Love you, too!
Benito Skinner: Gaga, I have a couple from global. Bryce asks, "What was the first song written for Mayhem, and what was the last song written for Mayhem?"
Lady Gaga: [Thinks and taps her fingers on the table] Okay! Okay! The first song written for Mayhem was "Vanish Into You". That was track five, I think. Track five? It is? Thank you. And the last was "Die With a Smile". [Cheer] So, the album ended in a happy place, but it started out in this kind-- It's interesting, they're kind of both apocalyptic love songs, but one is just way less hopeful. In "Vanish Into You", I imagine that I just want to disappear into the person that I love the most [likely referencing her fiancé, Michael Polansky], and [in] "Die With a Smile" there’s this sense of peace. And I really wanted Mayhem to end, like, I wanted to know that for myself, too. And I really did find that. I think that we can all bear a kind of personal chaos in our lives and then find a sense of peace and stability. And I’m really, really happy that I did, but I get to put all the instability into my artwork. [Laughs] [Applause and cheer]
Benito Skinner: Choose whoever you want.
Lady Gaga: Yes, in the front row with leather.
Fan: I’m too nervous to stand, so I’m going to sit down. You have changed my life. I know that everyone says that to you, but I have never been able to say it to you directly, so I just want to say thank you.
Lady Gaga: You’ve changed mine.
Fan: Oh my God, I’m so nervous. My question-- [Laughs] Sorry! My question is: There’s a lot of lore about your demos or unreleased songs and rumors of it. Did you revisit any of those for Mayhem, or do you close the chapter in the era in which you wrote it and let them rest?
Lady Gaga: You know, I think at one point I was feeling anxious, and I like drudged up some demos, and I just listen to them and then threw them out. I know it might sound cold, but each one of my albums is a piece of music that I conceive of from start to finish, and it's a moment in time and in my life that's very special. Whenever I say to myself, ‘Oh, there's that song, I'm gonna put that.’ whenever that happens, it just never really comes to fruition 'cause it never really belongs. So yeah. So, yes and no! Yes and no. And I threw it out. It was, um-- it was "Frankenstein".
Fan: Yes!
Lady Gaga: Yeah, okay, okay! [Raises her pointer finger up and smiles]
Fan: I didn’t want to name names, but I--
Lady Gaga: I don’t want to name names, but it was him! Oh, wow.
Benito Skinner: Can you see in the back?
Lady Gaga: Leopard, please! Oh, I-- you know, you know what?
Benito Skinner: You’re good. Whatever. Hey, you’re Mother Monster. You do what you want.
Haley: Hi, Gaga!
Lady Gaga: Hi!
Haley: I’m Haley.
Lady Gaga: Hi.
Haley: I wanted to ask you: for Mayhem, what was your favorite song once it was finished, and what was your favorite song to create?
Lady Gaga: Okay, I think, my favorite song once it was finished was “Blade of Grass.” I think one of my favorite things about making that song was working with everyone all at once on it, and it [is] representing something so special. It’s about when Michael [Polansky] proposed to me. ["Awww" in the audience] And he-- long before he did propose said-- we were in the backyard, and he said, “If I propose to you one day, what am I supposed to do?” And I said, “You can just get a blade of grass from the backyard and wrap it around my finger.” And he did actually propose to me with these green bands. He also gave me a-- my ring. [Laughs] [Applause and cheer] [Laughs] You’ve seen it. It was a very special moment. And I started writing that song at home with him, brought him into the studio, and Gesaffelstein was there. [Applause and cheer] And you know, he was talking to me a lot about wanting to make a very classic record. And I thought that was kind of interesting. You know, sometimes I’ll meet people or work with artists, and you just-- you meet people and they say like, “We really want it to be 'GAGA!' or whatever,” and I don’t even fully know what that means. And I feel like I sort of did that to Gesaffelstein, like, “We need to do like a dan--”. I was like kind of trying to egg him on, and he sort of looked at me like, “Can we just do something original?” And then we all did. And it was really-- it’s special 'cause every time I hear it, Michael and I-- when we did the bridge together I said, “I’ll give you something, and it’s no diamond ring,” and he said, “The air that I’m breathing.” When I hear that song, it represents this special time in my life. But also just to explain my backyard and those blades of grass was also like the place that I saw my friend Sonja get married, and then later she-- like, two months-- passed away. There was so much loss in that backyard and my life-- you know, those places in your life where you just like-- it’s like maybe your happy place but also your sad place. So that song... that’s like what Mayhem is to me. So it’s very special song to me. And then my favorite song when it was-- to make?
Haley: Yes, yes!
Lady Gaga: [It] was “Killah.”
Audience: Yaaas! [Applause and cheer]
Lady Gaga: It’s another record with Gesaffelstein, really, really like an industrial funk song. The only live instrument on that record is the guitar ...and my voice! [Smiles]
Haley: The best instrument.
Benito Skinner: Okay, Jessica asks: How did Mayhem come together, and what inspired their return to dark pop?
Lady Gaga: How did Mayhem come together? Over many months of a lot of hard work in the studio. Um... How did I return to dark pop? I think I learned a lot about not being dark being dark while I was making the music. And there’s something kind of method about the way I make my records, and I kind of become characters and through the music, and I still do that, but I’ve learned how to not let it completely take me over. And so I would say I returned to it because it felt safe, too. And maybe that’s why I didn’t for a really long time 'cause it felt maybe like too much ...which was hard 'cause I know, I knew [I] really wanted that. So I’m sorry, but also it was too hard, but but-- we’re okay now. Bring it on! [Smiles] Oh, why don’t you choose?
Benito Skinner: I’ll choose. Really, Gaga? You--
Lady Gaga: Yeah. Choose! Choose! Choose!
Benito Skinner: Way in the back! Two mustaches. Love!
Lady Gaga: [Laughs]
Benito Skinner: Hey, girl! That’s Lady Gaga, isn’t that so?
Lady Gaga: I’m fucking nervous, too. You see how nervous I am to talk to you? I’m so nervous. Hi.
Rob: Hi, Gaga! I’m Rob.
Lady Gaga: Hi!
Rob: One of my favorite eras of yours is the Tony Bennett era, and... [Applause and cheer] I feel like something changed in you and you grew. And so I wonder if there was something that he taught you that you bring with you into the way you make music now.
Lady Gaga: Definitely. I mean, anytime I think that any artist is lucky to work with somebody, is full of artistry, is as Tony, you’d like take something strong with you. And Tony used to always say to me, “Stick with quality, kid.” I thought that was really smart. He was kind of trying to tell me that no matter what anybody says or what you feel pressured to do, that you just should make great music. And when I went into the studio and I made Mayhem, I was just so focused on making the best possible record, the best possible music. So, it definitely stayed with me. It’s Tony [who] kind of reminds me to drown out the noise, you know. It can get noisy. Noise isn’t music. ...only sometimes ...if I want it to be! [Laughs]
Benito Skinner: You do it. Whoever you want.
Lady Gaga: I want you to do it. Go!
Benito Skinner: Really? Okay!
Lady Gaga: Yeeaah!
Benito Skinner: Right here, red hair!
Fan: First of all, the album is so c**ty. It is-- [Smiles] I forgot we’re on Spotify! I’m sorry! I work in drag. It’s a compliment.
Lady Gaga: I-- Well, thank you.
Fan: You’re welcome. So, you talked about community, and through your music, I found the drag community, and I’ve now had the blessing of a drag career for about going on 10 years. [Applause] Thank you! Thank you! You’re a huge inspiration to drag artists everywhere, and whenever I listen to your music and I’m on, you know, long car rides, I find myself going, “Okay, if I was going to perform this song, I would do this, and it would look like this, and this is what it would be.” When you have a new album out and you find yourself staring down the barrel of things like a tour or performances on TV or whatever your version of a drag number would be, which is just kind of what you do anyways-- Do you ever do the same thing? Do you listen to your own music and go, “Okay, this would be fierce, that would be cool”? Like, how do you conceptualize the numbers?
Lady Gaga: 100%. Yes. And, actually, when I’m writing songs, I have total visions. And when I made this album, I had all these like Gothic dreams but while I was awake, you know? And there were all these like dark just like visions, and each one of them I’m trying to bring to life in its own way. "Abracadabra" was its own Gothic dream, and it like came to life in the video. And I think that those visions are really powerful, and they’re important because it’s your artistic intuition, and it’s meant to be followed. Whenever I don’t follow that, I later, I’m like, “Why didn’t you?” It’s almost like I let it go...
Fan: What could have been!
Lady Gaga: What could have been, exactly. So, absolutely. It comes out in tour, it comes out in videos, it comes out in personal style. Those dreams are really-- I think that’s a through line to some of my earlier records, too — is gothic dreams. And that was like how I found Mayhem, I think, as I realized that. [Hums] Right here. Yes.
Fan: Hi. Hi. How you doing?
Lady Gaga: Hi.
Fan: Okay. So, I wanted to start up by saying that I’m a heavy supporter of you. I’m 19 years old. I’ve been listening to you since I was five. Like, I remember when my mom told me I was literally listening to “Telephone” with my T-shirt and her heels on. And so I wanted to say, as you being a big celebrity, you have a lot of haters, and you don’t let that fade you. You still do you, and you still make your music, and you strive in it, and you do your big one all the time. So I wanted to ask you: What’s your, like-- what’s the inspirational speech you can give to the new generation?
Lady Gaga: You just got to do you, and all you can do is your best.
Fan: Oh my God, I'm sorry, I’m so-- I’m fangirling over you. I love you!
Lady Gaga: I love you too. I love you all. All-- I love you too. All any of us. All any of us. To me, this is just what I believe. Like, I’m not really an authority on anything, but this is what I believe. I think we’re all trying our best, and that’s all we can do. Sometimes people aren’t going to like it, and that’s life. And that’s a quote from a song I sang in Joker. You know? You have to be willing to die on the sword with your work, too, I think. I stand by everything I think that I’ve made, and things that I don’t stand by, you know, I know when I’m wrong, or I can adjust myself and learn. Like, it’s okay to make mistakes, too. I think that we for ourselves have to be the inventor and the conductor of our own symphony of our life. And it’s my music, you know? So, it’s, like, [...] when it’s all over, it’s yours. So, I wouldn’t leave yourself behind. That’s what I’m saying. I think it’s okay to make things for other people. I do that. I love making things for you, but I try not to leave myself behind 'cause I also don’t-- I wouldn’t want you to leave yourself behind. So, [...] the spirit of it is being authentic no matter what. And also love... If your love was there, then it feels like it’s okay.
Fan: Thank you so much. I love you so much.
Lady Gaga: I love you too.
Fan: [Screams] Oh my God!
Benito Skinner: Okay.
Lady Gaga: This is so fun! Why did we not do this forever ago? Okay, the sparkles.
Fan: Okay, Queen of Pop, everyone! Okay, so I’m going to abuse my BFA a little bit here. A few years ago, you did an interview with [...], and you expressed interest in maybe wanting to do Broadway. And you know, I, as a theater queen, obsessed with your performance on the Oscars. The Sound of Music tribute [Applause and cheer] was one of my highlights of your career. And I just want to know, like, is that something that you still would love to do? You’re so theatrically inclined, and you really bring your artistry to life when you perform, and I just would die to have you on Broadway. And do you have a dream roll? 'Cause I have a list. [Laugh in the audience]
Lady Gaga: [Bursts into laughter]
Fan: I had to. I’m sorry. I had to. I have to plant the--
Lady Gaga: Not the list!
Fan: I have to plant the seat
Lady Gaga: Not the list!
Fan: --oh my God. We’ll start with Blanche in Streetcar. A play first, it’s unexpected. That’s how you get the Tony.
Lady Gaga: [Bursts into laughter and stands up]
Fan: BFA. BFA. And then the Witch in Into the Woods. And then Dolly in Hello, Dolly!.
Lady Gaga: I can’t believe, you said Blanche [in Streetcar]. That’s--
Fan: --oh my God, like--
Lady Gaga: I mean...
Fan: Yeah.
Lady Gaga: Okay! So, first of all, thanks for your list. Bless you that you have one. You made it. You came with it.
Fan: Oh, I was ready.
Lady Gaga: Yeah.
Fan: I’ve been ready.
Lady Gaga: I think that I would really love to write a musical, and I feel like that would bring me like so much joy, and to work with some amazing writers. But I think the first thing that needs to happen is I need to figure out what the important story is that I want to tell, with whoever I want to tell it with. While I appreciate the desire for me to win a Tony...
Fan: You got!
Lady Gaga: I-- Thank you! I just feel [...] I would want to put like years of work into that and then - oh my God! - it shows a week. I mean, they are rock stars. Rock stars. There are rock stars there.
Fan: I've got the contract. We’ll do six. It’s okay.
Lady Gaga: Okay, si-- I can’t do that. Then they’ll say I did six. They'll say, “She [???] six”!
Fan: --Patti LuPone did it in Evita. It’s okay.
Lady Gaga: [Smiles] No.
Fan: Haha! Thank you. Love you. Thank you so much.
Lady Gaga: I love you, too.
Fan: Thank you.
Benito Skinner: Gaga, don’t be mad at me, we only have time for two more questions. So we’re going to do one from the audience and then one online. Don’t be mad.
Lady Gaga: [Points her finger at a fan] Mhm. Oh, now, now, now it’s both of you.
Fan: Hi! Just need to say: Love you since day one. My question is: what did you whisper to Ariana Grande [Cheer in the audience] during the 2020 VMAs during “Rain On Me”? I watched that performance all-- I just watched it today at work and I was like, “Hm, what did she say?”
Lady Gaga: I don’t know!
Fan: We’re not leaving.
Lady Gaga: Okay, here’s-- okay, here’s what I will say: I truly do not recall.
Fan: I believe you.
Lady Gaga: It was probably something very, very silly because the two-- we’re very silly. One more together. How about this: I will watch it back, and I will write you an apology.
Fan: You don’t need an apology.
Lady Gaga: And I will try to remember. I’m going to ask her. She might remember.
Fan: It was that really high note. But love you so much.
Lady Gaga: Right behind there. Yes.
Nick: Hi, Gaga!
Lady Gaga: Couldn’t say no to this.
Nick: My name is Nick Gaga.
Lady Gaga: I know.
Nick: Thank you. Thank you. For everyone who doesn’t know me: I’m her premier impersonator.
Lady Gaga: I mean, you should be up here.
Nick: Absolutely not. I’m here to listen to you and the album, which is obviously a killah.
Lady Gaga: Thank you.
Nick: The first time that I met you was back in 2012 when you visited Russia with the Born This Way Ball and you brought me on stage and then we chatted backstage. That was the first time. So my question is very simple and very short: What was your favorite tour, and when are we getting Mayhem tour? [Applause and cheer]
Lady Gaga: Okay, my favorite-- I don’t know. It’s-- Okay! I know, but I know. But there-- Okay! But when I did The Fame Ball, it was the first time I ever saw you. [Applause and cheer] I know that The Fame Ball was probably... it was! It was the most inexpensive tour. It was like the low-budget tour. It was my early tour, but that was when I like met Little Monsters for the first time. And then The Monster Ball happened and everything! [Applause and cheer] So, I would have to say The Fame Ball, I think, because it was such a different grind. I was on a bus. I did like--
Fan: You were where?
Lady Gaga: Yes. Yes. No, I lived on a bus. I lived on a bus, and I did three shows a night. Three. I’m serious. Three shows. I would open for New Kids on the Block or the Pussycat Dolls, and then I would play three clubs. And then that turned into theater. This-- I probably got this wrong 'cause it’s like a bluuurrr. But, anyway, thank you for all the tours that you’ve supported and come to. They’ve all been important to me. [Applause and cheer] The ArtRAVE was also really special. [Applause and cheer screaming "Yes!"] The reason the ArtRave was so special was because that album was sooo criticized! And--
Fan: Justice for ARTPOP always. [Applause and cheer]
Lady Gaga: But Little Monsters showed up for the ArtRave as if everything was, you know, a Monday morning.
Fan: I was there, yeah!
Lady Gaga: It was-- But that’s like-- I mean, thank you. And there will probably be something soon. [Applause and cheer]
Fan: Can’t wait to replicate all of it. Thank you, Gaga. Love you.
Lady Gaga: You always come with those questions. It’s like really, you know, it’s like we’ve never left, guys.
Benito Skinner: Gaga.
Lady Gaga: Yes.
Benito Skinner: You brought up the ArtRave.
Lady Gaga: Yes.
Benito Skinner: And like 10,000 people asked...
Lady Gaga: 10,000!?
Benito Skinner: [Laughing] So many people ask. It’s actually scary. Can we talk about ARTPOP Act II? [Applause and cheer]
Lady Gaga: Now this feels like a courtroom. [The audience laughs]
Benito Skinner: It is. This is a trap.
Lady Gaga: Okay. --okay. Okay! So, when I make my records, there is a reason that songs are left off... [Laughs] and it’s because some simply are not good enough for you. And I’m not saying that it’s a never, but I am saying that I’m not going to take all my demos that I specifically left off the record and just chuck them on an album and put the number two on it. [Screaming] No!
Benito Skinner: Do it! Do it tonight! Stop it right now, Gaga. You’re doing it!
Lady Gaga: No. No. Okay. But I’m not-- I’m not saying that it’s impossible. I’m just saying that it’s, you know, it’s not going to happen like that. I would just want to go in, and-- I feel like it would have to be reactionary to what-- So much happened when we dropped that record, you know, as a community. So, I feel like we would have to kind of respond to that with the music, which is maybe some of what’s on Mayhem. So, I would have to-- I mean, that was my EDM Opus, that record. [Applause and cheer] So, but it would have-- I would have to like-- I’d have to get back in that headspace and complete it. So...
Fan in the audience: Lady Starlight [brings that?] basement [???].
Lady Gaga: [Loudly] Oooohh! I mean, that’s-- that’s-- that is an excellent idea.
Benito Skinner: Gaga, thank you so much.
Lady Gaga: Thank you.
Benito Skinner: And thank you for playing Mayhem! And thank you, Little Monsters! You were the best, truly. Wooo!
Audience: [Claps and cheers]
Lady Gaga: [Hugs Benito Skinnera and fans in the front row and leaves a conference room]

Removal of Do What U Want[]
In January of 2019, Lady Gaga removed her 2013 single “Do What U Want,” featuring R. Kelly, from the streaming platform. The action followed the “Surviving R. Kelly” docuseries, which reignited public outrage over Kelly’s alleged sexual misconduct. Originally part of ARTPOP, the song’s withdrawal coincided with Gaga’s public apology for the collaboration, rooted in her identity as a sexual assault survivor and her commitment to aligning her music with her principles.
