Lady Gaga has highlighted why she is still a force to be reckoned with, after appearing in a Hbo special covering her recent Monster Ball Tour show in New York's Madison Square Garden (2 February 2011). However, this didn't stop Lady Gaga from feeling like a 'loser' backstage.
Pulling no punches, Gaga appeared in an array of costume changes, dazzling sets and committing even more quirky behaviour as usual. Energised by her hometown crowd, she gave the screaming crowd a simple piece of advice: 'even when 'they' turn its back on you, you always have yourself.' However, the backstage footage seemed to show an alternate reality, as Lady Gaga was seen wiping tears from her eyes, talking about wanting to win for her fans: "I just sometimes feel like a loser, still. I have to tell myself I'm a superstar every morning. I cannot be destroyed, I will not be destroyed, and you can never destroy the kingdom that is my fans.' The Hbo special is planned to be shown on Sky1 later this month.
Lady Gaga has recently finished her Monster Ball Tour, set to possibly be the highest-grossing tour of all time. Her new album, Born this Way, is due for release 23 May 2011. (S)
