News : Lady Gaga Says Tony Bennett Saved Her Life
Mother monster Lady Gaga has revealed that she would have quit music if it wasn't for Tony Bennett, who she's teamed up with on her upcoming album.
The 28-year-old said just six months ago she was in a dark place and didn't even know if she wanted to carry on with a career in pop.
Talking to Parade magazine, she said: "Six months ago I didn't even want to sing anymore.
"I tell Tony every day that he saved my life... I'm not going to say names, but people get irrational when it comes to money - with how they treat you, with what they expect from you... But if you help an artist, it doesn't give you the right, once the artist is big, to take advantage of them.
Gaga, who had to cancel a string of shows after undergoing hip surgery, continued: "I was so sad. I couldn't sleep. I felt dead. And then I spent a lot more time with Tony. He wanted nothing but my friendship and my voice."
The singer also opened up about her future with Taylor Kinney and whether she has plans to start a family soon.
"I thought I did, because I was feeling kind of finished with all of the chaos of my life," she said.
"But then I started to spend a lot more time with [Tony], and everything just became simpler, more pure and more perfect. Now I'm going to take a lot more time before I have kids and settle down. I just want to sing."
The 28-year-old star captioned one of the images, taken in Dubai: "#bodyrevolution Proud at any size, because the inside is what really counts. Plus, it's all how you pose! Just ask the supermodels!"
After receiving support from a fan on Twitter, she replied: "Id rather be fat than be shallow (sic)"When another fan wrote: "I honestly can't imagine receiving comments about my weight everyday. How insulting and degrading. Also gaga is perfect so back off."
The blonde beauty responded: "all day long every day, so what if I got a belly sometimes, sometimes I don't. There's people starving in the world. #whocares."
The Applause hitmaker, who also recently insisted she is "curvy and proud," previously admitted she used to battle with an eating disorder.\
She said at the time: "I have struggled with an eating disorder for over 10 years and I take that very seriously, I take the struggle of others very seriously."But earlier this year, she claimed she had overcome her troubles.
She said: "I am better with food. I don't have an eating disorder anymore. I'm also better at not letting people take advantage of me. Five years ago, when I spotted someone with a hidden agenda, I allowed them to stay around me... I speak up now. I realised that it's my own fault that people take advantage.
I should be around people who cherish my talents, my health, my time ... I'm an artist. I deserve better than to be loyal to people who only believe in me because I make money."
