Lady Gaga plays ‘a bit of a slut’ in `The Simpsons`

Washington: Lady Gaga has revealed that she plays “a bit of a slut” while voicing an animated version of herself in a forthcoming episode of cartoon comedy ‘The Simpsons’.

The ‘Marry The Night’ hitmaker is due to star in forthcoming episode ‘Lisa Goes Gaga’ - which will be aired on May 20 on Fox in the US - of the popular cartoon comedy series, which will see her change into 18 outfits during the show and even embrace Marge Simpson. “I play a bit of a slut. The apple doesn’t fall far from my artistic tree,” Contactmusic quoted her as saying. Among her costume changes in the episode, Gaga - whose real name is Stefani Germanotta - wears her infamous meat dress made of raw beef which she donned in real life at the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards in Los Angeles. The episode sees Gaga arrive in the Simpsons’ hometown of Springfield aboard the Gaga Express train, and she sets about trying to boost Lisa Simpson’s spirits after the character becomes a social outcast. The 26-year-old singer had previously described starring in an episode of ‘The Simpsons’ as the “coolest” thing she has “ever done”. “I make music, but I don’t do voice-overs every day of the week, and their characters are so awesomely convincing and sincere and wild and funny, I had to remind myself constantly of the sincerity of the humour. “That’s what I was trying to focus on, not putting on a character too much and really being as sincere as I could with the lines. “I would say this is one of the coolest things I’ve ever done. My dad’s probably going to do 80 backflips when the episode comes out,” she added. ANI
