She might come across as assured and fearless, but Lady Gaga has revealed that she aspires to be as confident as fellow singer Adele – describing the British star as "wonderful". The 26-year-old made the comments during a discussion over recent pictures of Gaga that appeared in the tabloids, showing her self-confessed "weight gain".
"I thought, well I don’t really care if they think I’m fat, because, quite honestly, I did gain about 30 pounds," Gaga told Stylist magazine. "Adele is bigger than me, how come nobody says anything about it? She’s so wonderful and I think her confidence is something I have to match. She has set the bar very high for a lot of women. I need to be a confident woman and just say politically-active things when I can that are helpful to young people." – Vogue
