The world saw a star being born, but Lady Gaga saw herself dying. In a candid frank interview, the singer and actress has revealed that her most celebrated cinematic performance was filmed under the influence of drugs as her mental health spiralled towards a catastrophic break.
“I did A Star Is Born on lithium,” Gaga told Rolling Stone, about turning to the powerful mood stabiliser in a desperate measure to hold herself together. While audiences witnessed the raw rise of her character Ally, Gaga, 37, said she was medicating to stave off a collapse.
