Lady Gaga Speaks on Hermaphrodite Rumors, Her Androgynous Appeal, Sex with Women on 20/20
With her outrageous getups, sexually-charged songs and blood-soaked performances, Lady Gaga has become a bona fide star at just 23 years of age.
Much has been written about her, but in an interview with Barbara Walters on 20/20 Friday, Gaga said there are some big misconceptions out there.
That she has a penis is one of those misconceptions, but more on that in a moment. What she hates most, she says, is hearing that she is artificial.
"The truth is that every bit of me is devoted to love and art," she said. "I aspire to try to be a teacher to my fans... to liberate them of their fears."
Asked about lyrics that seem to imply bisexuality, Gaga confirmed that she's had sexual relationships with women, though she's only been in love with men.
Gulp. Turning her attention to the ongoing Lady Gaga hermaphrodite rumors, the singer put them to rest (sort of) once and for all. This was the exchange:
Barbara Walters: You've heard the rumors going around ... the rumor that you are both a man and a woman?
Lady Gaga: [pause] I'm familiar with it.
Barbara Walters: Is it true?
Lady Gaga: No.
Well, there you have it. Although, asked if she is upset by such rumors, Gaga said her androgynous appeal is a big reason for her success, and doesn't exactly go out of her way to limit that. So believe whatever you want about her!

Se Lady Gagas e veramente ermafrodita, voglio scommette 100E per guardarla nuda ed il suo pene fuori. Allora si, che posso credere a tutte le cazzate dei mass-media oppure paparazzi bugiardi che si guadagnano per vivere pubblicando solo del falso ideologico per fare illudere i fans di Lady Gagas di questo inutile rumore giornalistico stupido. E allora fatemi vedere la foto di Lady Gagas dotata di pene e forse ci credo. ADDIO...

As soon as I heard the rumor, I knew it was fake. Lady Gaga is the perfect victim for the media. But her being the strong, beautiful, devoted woman she is, just shrugged it off. She is great at what she does, and she is my role model. I can relate to her in many ways. I am not bisexual/homosexual, but I do support them, and I solute you Stephanie Joanna Angelina Germanotta.

Gaga is talented, pretty, fierce, and definitely not a guy. YAY that she is pro-gay-rights. So am I, and I am a straight woman.

I usually dont like the fake pop sort of wanna be's that make it that are doing shit that i did when i was 16 (now 32) but Lady Gaga is interesting at least. Her music is catchy.I dont have too much 2 say about her. I definetly dont think she's the shiniest tool in the box.

She did not have a sex change! I saw pictures of her from high school, she was very cute and I think she's beautiful. People need to stop being jerks...some of you need to grow up and become decent human beings. You're what's wrong with this world...
