Lady Gaga’s three major acting roles (“American Horror Story,” “A Star Is Born” and “House of Gucci) were not exactly light material. In fact, after “Gucci,” Lady Gaga’s longtime manager suggested she do a rom-com next: “I’d love to do a romantic comedy.”
She first showed her dramatic chops as a vampire on “American Horror Story: Hotel” in 2015. Three years later, her big-screen debut in “A Star Is Born” earned her a best actress Oscar nomination for her work as Ally, a superstar singer married to a washed-up alcoholic musician .
Before the cameras roll, Gaga asks me how long we’ve known each other. “A few years now, but of course, I knew you long before you knew me,” I say. I tell her about my drunken Saturday nights seeing her perform at Cherry Pop, a weekly gay party that took place in the middle of the aughts at a West Hollywood dance club. This was back in the days when she was running around town with a David Bowie-esque lightning bolt on her face.
Gaga is quick to point out that she is not sharing this new information to “glorify” her commitment to acting. “I don’t think that any actor should push themselves to that limit,” she says. “And I ask myself all the time why I do that. I’ve done some pretty extreme art pieces throughout my career — the things I’ve put my body through, my mind. It’s like a walnut of sadness in my stomach as I say this to you. I don’t know why I’m like that.
The film is not without controversy. Heirs of Aldo Gucci are not happy about the movie. They released a scathing statement shortly after the film was released, calling it “an insult to the legacy on which the brand is built today.” Asked what didn’t make it into the movie that she wishes had, Gaga says scenes showing Patrizia’s battle with a brain tumor during the messy divorce could have offered more context as to why she resorted to having Maurizio killed. In fact, there is no mention of the illness in the film. “It was rumored that Maurizio never went to visit her and that the family didn’t go visit her, so she was alone,” Gaga says. “For me, it provided more color and motive behind why the murder happened.
