I am a traditional girl, declares topless Lady Gaga

London: Lady Gaga is best known for her kinky outfits and on-stage antics, but the popstar claims that she is a traditional girl who wants a husband and a family. The flamboyant singer insisted that she is "quite the lady" in a new interview with Q magazine, which sees the pop star posing topless on the cover.

The 23-year-old singer, posed in little but a pair of spiky trousers and metal chains around her neck in the new issue of Q magazine, reported Daily Mail online. "Well, I believe in certain institutions: cooking, serving dinner, taking care of my family. So I consider myself quite the lady," she said. The `Poker Face` star who regularly flashes flesh on stage, admitted she had many emotional battles with her record label over her individual style. "My image was an issue at my record label. I fought for months and cried at meetings. I got criticised for being arrogant because if you`re sure of yourself as a woman they say you`re bad whereas if you`re a man it`s normal," she said. This was the interview where the Grammy winner famously broke down in tears. Gaga`s exhaustion, which led to a concert being cancelled in Indiana, was already in evidence during the interview. "Soon her invincible demeanour dissolves. `I`m stressed...`. She retreats to her dressing room, only to mere minutes later in tears and wearing enormous shades saying that she has to leave and hopes the shoot can be rescheduled," read the article. PTI
