This story has been all over the web. Here’s how the Daily Mirror (UK) tabloid saw it, with bits added by us.
STAR’S RUDE REVELATION
It can take her three hours to put on her outrageous outfits, so it’s no surprise Lady Gaga takes a short cut when she’s, er, caught short…
If you’ve ever wondered how she answers the call of nature when all trussed up in a meat frock, or incubated in a large egg, let me put your mind at rest.
Finally, her secret’s out. And it might not please her local binmen.
The Marry The Night singer, 25, has taken to relieving herself in her dressing room wastebin.
And poor Denise Welch (co-host) might want to swap her Loose Women ( TV talk show) dressing rooms- after Gaga borrowed hers yesterday to do Alan Carr’s Chatty Man (another TV talk) show.
Gruesomely, Gaga used the dustbin as a makeshift loo while getting changed- because she reckons it takes her too long to put on her crazy garb to head down the corridor to the loos.
“I do often pee in the dressing room. In the trash can,” she says. “It would have been an interesting photo today because I had a big pink bow on, and I was over the trash can…”
At this point, the shy and retiring Gaga demonstrates her balancing act, then continues: “The bathroom is down the hall. And I was naked. It was just me, my bow and my nakedness. Me and my dustbin have a very important relationship.”
Apparently, if she took time out of her ridiculous dressing schedule, the loo breaks would forever make her late. “Then I’d be Latey Gaga,” she says with a grin.
Surprisingly, under the circumstances, Alan still plied her with a favourite tipple, Jameson’s Irish Whiskey, during their chat.
Gaga admitted she was slurring her words, and at one point she accidentally spilled a tumbler of whisky all over Alan’s nice couch.
Well, it could’ve been worse, Alan…
“The only thing I do straight is my whisky,” she giggled. I got very drunk last night. They call me Drunky Gaga.”
The singer, pictured with a bright pink tadpole on her head as she made her way to the studios in London yesterday, also revealed she will be collaborating with Sir Elton John on her new album.
A word of advice, Elt- take the studio’s bins out first….
We bet many people are forced to pee in dustbins when they’re desperate. It just sounds shocking (to some sections of the media) because Lady Gaga had spoken openly about it.
