Taylor Kinney: 'I'm in a relationship' with Lady Gaga

Taylor Kinney's got it all at the moment. His blazing hot new television drama, "Chicago Fire" (helmed by Dick Wolf), launches in two weeks. His admirable physique is due mostly to "genetics," he shares. And his relationship with Lady Gaga? That's "great." The actor opened up a bit about his relationship with the pop star on Friday. The two met shooting her music video, "You and I," in 2011. "I don't think I've ever said anything publicly up till now," he said. "But I'm happy. I'm in a relationship, and I'm happy.

AP/ Lady Gaga Lady Gaga, Tony Bennett plan jazz album Sept. 29, 2012, 2:08 PM EST RollingStone.com On a hot summer day in New York last year, Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett recorded a flirty cover of Rodgers and Hart's "The Lady is a Tramp" for Bennett's 2011 "Duets II" LP, and Gaga was so nervous, she downed whiskey throughout the day.

Lady Gaga luahkan masalah anoreksia

29 Sep Sekali lagi, nama Lady Gaga menjadi bualan ramai bukan kerana rambut palsunya, kasut ataupun kostum yang pelik, tetapi gambar terbaru beliau di laman Littlemonsters.com yang berpakaian dalam berwarna kuning disertai dengan kapsyen "Anoreksia dan bulimia semenjak saya 15 tahun". Dalam sekelip mata sahaja, laman Littlemonsters bertukar menjadi sebuah forum awam yang membincangkan masalah pemakanan, kecederaan diri dan semua jenis masalah keyakinan diri yang melibatkan rasa benci terhadap diri sendiri. Berikutan dengan kritikan ramai atas berat badannya yang kian meningkat naik, Gaga mula melancarkan sebuah gerakan bernama Body Revolution 2013 sebagai cara untuk memberi inspirasi kepada peminat yang kurang keyakinan diri dan sering dibuli disebabkan paras rupa dan bentuk fizikal. Menurut Gaga, gerakan tersebut diilhamkan oleh Born This Way Foundation iaitu sebuah organisasi yang ditubuhkan oleh beliau dan ibunya sendiri sebagai cara untuk mengatasi masalah buli dan me

Lady Gaga defended by Kirstie Alley

Kirstie Alley has defended Lady Gaga's weight gain saying the singer looks better than ever since putting on 25lbs. The 26-year-old pop star was slammed for recently putting on 25lbs but Kirstie - who has struggled with her own weight in the past - says the 'Toxic' hitmaker was so skinny that gaining a few curves can only be a good thing. She told PEOPLE magazine: 'With Lady Gaga, she gains 25 pounds and it becomes this huge thing. 'She was so freaking skinny that 25 pounds would make her a what, size two? There's an insanity here. I know it's a pressure on her. I know it is. It's really hard to play that game.'

Is Lady Gaga Hinting At Weight Backlash On 'Cake' Track?

The track, "Cake Like Lady Gaga," premiered during the Mugler runway show during Paris Fashion this week. The rap song, featuring an anonymous male voice boasts the many swagger-fied things Lady Gaga does, including traveling the globe, making lots of money and frequently wearing designer duds. While the song contains lyrics like "F--- the world I'm Lady Gaga/ Run the world like Lady Gaga" and "Walk a mile in these foot-high heels/ I run in these you ain't runnin' s---," there might also be a reference to some of the criticism the singer has faced for her apparent weight gain while on her Born This Way Ball, days after she launched her Body Revolution 2013 campaign , which she kicked off this week to empower her fans. The male voice spits, "You chew beef, I wear meat/ And stay on top of the -- I'm-I'm-I'm-I'm/ Getting fat and so is my bank/With a sold out world tour, bitch." A version of the DJ White Shadow-produced

Lady Gaga Sings Hail to the Beep

Scott Stringer , Borough President of Manhattan , is now the most Internet-famous borough president in New York City's history, a title he earned by defending Lady Gaga 's virtue.Though Gaga herself hasn't yet publicly commented on the incident where (no, we don't know how drug abuse equates with sexual promiscuity ), she (passively aggressively) sent out this tweet to her 29 million-plus followers, praising and at the same time let us know that she's fully aware of the Staten Island president's comments: To @ of Manhattan, thanku for your support of my activism as a new yorker. You show political integrity + a modern vernacular. Lady Gaga (@ladygaga) Zing. That's been retweeted 870 times (and counting) and "favorited" 410 times. Putting that into perspective, not shabby by any means, but that number is clearly dwarfed by the Little Monster fanbase he's just acquired.

Lady Gaga: happy, healthy and still doesn't care what you think

Image
Lady Gaga talks about her lifelong weight struggles, says she's happy with who she is now. Most celebrities have come to accept the rumors and criticisms they receive living in the public eye. Stories of affairs, breakups, makeups, and the occasional "scary skinny" story. While there are always other stories to report other than a person's weight, that is what happened to Lady Gaga when photos surfaced of her with a fuller figure. When the photos surfaced of Gaga's noticeably fuller figure, which looks more healthy than "fat," people were quick to call her names. Some went as far as to speculate she was pregnant. In a recent interview with Z100 , Gaga said her love of Italian foods like pasta and pizza were to blame for her weight gain and she doesn't "feel bad about it." Though she is currently dieting, she doesn't want to go through the same thing she has always gone through with her weight. She's ready to find a "balance.&qu

Lady Gagas toker face

LADY GAGA s DVD collection has probably seen some interesting additions recently of the Family Guy, Half Baked and Cheech & Chong variety. Like millions of twentysomething tourists before her, the singer has been indulging in some heavy-duty sampling of marijuana since her trip to Amsterdam. And Gagas extracurricular activities are the reason behind her new curvier figure after getting regular attacks of the munchies. The star has been tucking in to midnight feasts of Italian ice cream, crisps and pizzas. But the singer has absolutely no intention of going on a diet because her boyfriend Taykor Kinney prefers his lady with curves. A source said: The weight Gaga has put on isnt about the amount she is consuming in the day its late at night. With her intense performances right now shes burning off thousands of calories each night anyway so she will probably see some weight drop off over the next few weeks. However, she wont be succumbing to any pressure to drop the pounds. Gaga t

Lady Gaga called a slut for smoking pot?

Image
Staten Island borough president James P. Molinaro is not a Lady Gaga fan. The 81-year-old grandfather likely does not have Born This Way cued up on his iPod 8-track, but his bigger issue with the pop star is the fact that she smoked the pot on stage during a recent show in Amsterdam. So Molinaro, who is promoting a new neighborhood anti-drug program, took her to task for toking, calling her a slut ? We have to understand that theres a tremendous influence with our youth, which I didnt have as a youth, said Molinaro, according to the Staten Island Advocate . And theres the influence right there. Stop glorifying the drug use. Theres Gaga. Heres this this I would call her a slut. This slut is influencing many, many children. The New York Times called on Molinaro to explain his choice of words, but he argued semantics, claiming that the word slut doesnt have to have a sexual meaning and could also simply mean improper conduct. Looking up the word slut to see if it was properly used bef

Lady Gaga won't hide weight gain

Lady Gaga has 'no intention' of covering up to hide her recent 25 pound (11 kilograms) weight gain. The 'Marry The Night' hitmaker recently revealed she had gained 25 pounds after over-eating at her father's New York restaurant, and while she has come under criticism, she is refusing to cover-up. A source told The Huffington Post: 'She has no intention of going on a diet or hiding under baggy clothes until she loses some weight. That just isn't her style. She tells her fans to love themselves and that is something that she doesn't just preach.' However, she also believes some of the gain has been in muscle after dancing on stage on her Born This Way world tour. The source added: 'She has said before that when she's on tour she gets muscular. If you look at pictures from the start and the end of her tours you can see that. It's not a look she says she really likes, but after working out onstage like she does, it happens naturally. There is

Lady Gaga Flaunts Fuller Figure at Paris Perfume Launch

6:11 PM PDT 9/24/2012 by Sophie A. Schillaci Getty Images Pop stars do eat, apparently. After prompting outrage in April by tweeting that "pop singers don't eat," Lady Gaga is making headlines for a 25-pound weight gain. PHOTOS: Lady Gaga's Top Ten Fashion Moments Gaga recently told Elvis Duran on his morning radio show that she was dieting in the wake of her sudden weight increase, citing her love of Italian food and her father's new restaurant as the reasons behind it. "I really don't feel bad about it," she said. "Not even for a second." And she shouldn't. After all, Gaga prides herself on encouraging her Little Monsters to be true to themselves and shun conformity. Plus, it was her that coined the self-empowering "Born This Way" -- right? And though fashionistas have long kept an eye on Gaga's wild fashions, the singer is perhaps garnering more attention than ever for her clothing choices as of late. PHOTOS: Best and

Pop Culture Opinion: Lady Gaga launches recycled art

Image
Courtesy of MCT Once upon a time, there was a New York City girl who dreamt of becoming a modern day pop star. She would grow up to briefly attend New York Universitys Tisch School of the Arts to create an uninspired persona that would constantly be compared to iconic figures. This is the fractured fairy tale of how Lady Gaga continues to fool her fans to go gaga for Gaga. At the end of New York Fashion Week, Lady Gaga entered the lobby of the Guggenheim Museum to promote the launch of her first fragrance with shirtless men wearing tight leather pants and shoulder harnesses who appeared to be waiters that night. Gaga was sound asleep in a black velvet bed inside a giant replica of her Fame perfume bottle. Videos captured by fans during a live Ustream showed her celebrity friends caressing her hands as French music played in the background. The launch of her first fragrance, Fame, turned awkward when she peed in a champagne bucket. The rest of her performance proved she is a cop

Lady Gaga Thanks Fans for Loving Her 'No Matter What'

Lady Gaga has attracted a lot of attention for her weight lately: during her most recent concerts, she's appeared much heavier than normal, and there have even been rumors that her record company has demanded that she slim down. But over the weekend, Gaga, obviously aware of the chatter, took to Twitter to thank her fans for loving her just the way she is. While tweeting about the success of her new fragrance Fame, which she says has sold six million bottles in one week, she added, "And thanks to my fans who love me no matter what, and know the meaning of real beauty & compassion. I really love you." She then posted a photo of Marilyn Monroe on her social networking site, LittleMonsters.com, along with a quote from the late actress: "To all the girls that think you're ugly because you're not a size 0, you're the beautiful one. It's society that's ugly." Gaga turned heads Saturday night in Paris by stepping out in a bizarre and enormous p

Lady Gaga's former PA says she has no right to privacy

People News Sep 24, 2012, 8:01 GMT Lady Gaga Lady Gaga's former personal assistant insists the star has 'no right to privacy'. Jennifer O'Neill is suing the 'Bad Romance' singer for $380,000 in unpaid overtime from the $75,000-a-year job, alleging she was on call at all times and has issued a subpoena demanding some unpublished photos of Gaga, which she says support her claims. However, the pop star is fighting the request for the photos - which were taken by Terry Richardson for the 'Lady Gaga x Terry Richardson' book - calling them 'private and personal' in court papers, prompting her former employee to argue against her 'ludicrous' claim to privacy because of Gaga's outlandish behaviour. Ms. O'Neill's lawyers wrote in papers filed in Manhattan federal court on Friday (21.09.12): '[Gaga] is probably the last person in the world to care about her 'privacy,' exposing herself in all manner of bizarre and intimate wa

Lady Gaga slams 'ugly' society and hits back after 'fat' attack

Taking a pop at the size zero brigade, the barmy performer posted a picture of curvy idol Marilyn Monroe on Twitter. To all the girls that think youre ugly because youre not a size 0, youre the beautiful one. Its society whos ugly, Gaga wrote. Thanks to my fans who love me no matter what, and know the meaning of real beauty&compassion, she told her 29million followers. I really love you. The 26-year-old mocked the slights on her fuller figure by sporting an oversized pink and blue frock when she stepped out in Paris before her gig at the weekend. Lady Gaga wore yet another outlandish outfit in Paris (Rex Features) Gaga wasnt flashing any flesh in the crazy ballooned ensemble which was completed by Willy Wonka-style sunglasses and monster-high blue platforms. She has reportedly been told to shed 11kg (1st 11lb) by her record company. But she later struck back, blaming the food at her dads Italian restaurant for the appearance of unflattering stage shots during her tour. Just months

Lady GaGa sells 6m bottles of 'Fame' in a week?

Lady GaGa has reportedly sold 6 million bottles of her new fragrance 'Fame' in one week. The singer took to Twitter to share the news with her fans yesterday (September 22). "The reaction to FAME has been overwhelming," she posted . "6 million bottles in 1 week makes it the 2nd fastest selling fragrance after Coco Chanel." 'Fame' - produced by Coty - was initially released in Macy's and UK stores on August 22, but a worldwide launch followed on September 1. A huge marketing campaign accompanied the launch, including billboard posters , multiple TV spots shot by Stephen Klein and personal appearances by GaGa herself .

Though Lady Gaga has been fending off criticism about her weight this week, she hasnt let things slip on the fashion front. Hitting Paris yesterday, Gaga took a trip to designer Azzedine Alaia's decadent showroom, wearing an interesting animal print coat. Teetering out of the showroom in sky-high platform boots, the singer showed off her style in a hourglass shaped coat, spread with textured leopard print. Long-sleeved and zipped from top to bottom, Gagas coat acted as a quirky dress, while she wore her hair in a twisted bun to show off her latest tattoo at the nape of her neck.
