Eccentric artist Lady GaGa has recently confessed that she feels like the city of New York is her… “husband”.
The You and I singer was raised in the Big Apple and she remembers watching the collapse of the city’s twin towers on September 11, 2001, from the roof of her school as she held the hands of her friends.
Speaking during MTV special Inside the Outside, which commemorates the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, she said, “I watched the towers fall from the roof of my school, holding all my best friends. I don’t know … just, my affinity and my love and the relationship I have with New York City – it’s like the husband I never married.”
Even her new album contains many songs about New York City. “Every song on all my albums has some relationship to New York City, but one in particular Marry The Night, that record is about my husband, New York.”
The 25-year-old singer has also claimed a while ago that she was “married to loneliness”. “I am an artist. We wallow in loneliness and solitude our whole lives in search of the answer to hundreds and millions of questions that run through my mind,” she said. “Yes, I’m lonely. But I’m married to my loneliness.”
