Lady Gaga said, “She was different in a way… she’s very careful about what she says and she’s very very classy and she sort of pulled me up but doing that. I’m a newbie.” Adding, “I feel having me write a song for her, that she gave me a lot of credit for, that means a lot, she doesn’t have to do that. I mean why would she do that if I’m new and I’m essentially trying to take her spot.” Lady Gaga also revealed that there was “some talk” about performing together.
