Love your GaGa...

Lady Gaga is Elle Magazine's January cover girl. She dishes on how her body responds to her stressful new life:

  “I get all the symptoms of a pregnant woman. I get headaches, I get tired, I get blurred vision sometimes during a really intense session with {her creative team} the Haus.”


On her former career {not the stripping, but waitressing}:

“I was really good at it. I always got big tips. I always wore heels to work! I told everybody stories, and for customers on dates, I kept it romantic. It’s kind of like performing.”


On her future family:

“In eight to 10 years, I want to have babies for my Dad to hold, grandkids. And I want to have a husband who loves and supports me, just the way anyone else does. I would never leave my career for a man right now, and I would never follow a man around.”
