Lady Gaga readily admits she has put on 25 pounds and she’s more than willing to discuss it at length.
So let’s get right to it! Lady Gaga kicked off the latest leg of her tour in Amsterdam and immediately sparked Twitter mania among concert-goers who are wondering what’s up with the weight gain.
Just before she hit the road Gaga chatted it up with New York iHeart Radio host Elvis Duran.
She admitted, “I’m dieting right now, because I gained, like, 25 pounds. And you know I really don’t feel bad about it, not even for a second. I have to be on such a strict diet constantly. It’s hard because it’s quite a vigorous show, so I tend to bulk up, get muscular, and I really don’t like that. So I’m trying to find a new balance.”
Many have suggested that she has been putting on the pounds because she drinks like a fish. She blows a hole in that theory, insisting that it’s not the alcohol, but rather her daddy’s cooking.
Gaga reports, “I love eating pasta and pizza. I’m a New York Italian girl. That’s why I have been staying out of New York. My father, Joe Germanotta, opened a restaurant. It’s so amazing … it’s so freaking delicious, but I’m telling you I gain five pounds every time I go in there. So my dad wants me to eat at the restaurant, and I’m, like, I’ve got to go where I can drink green juice.”
