Lady Gaga cries about feeling ‘alone’ in this clip from her new Netflix documentary

There’s a moment in Lady Gaga’s 2011 documentary about her Monster Ball Tour in which she breaks down in tears. She’s wiping off her makeup after a show and says, “I still feel like a loser still, you know?… I just gotta pick my sh*t up, pick myself up, and I have to tell myself I’m a superstar every morning.” It’s an incredibly vulnerable moment, but people who know Gaga well shouldn’t be surprised by her candour here. She’s always been raw with her fans — about her struggles, past addictions, everything. Even at the peak of her meat dress-wearing years, Gaga was always real.

And she gets even realer in her upcoming Netflix documentary, Gaga: Five Foot Two. In a new clip teasing the film, Gaga cries about the isolating nature of fame — something she’s discussed many times before, but never this openly.

“I’m alone, Brandon. Every night. All of these people will leave,” she says in the preview. “They will leave, and then I’ll be alone. I go from everyone touching me all day and talking at me all day to total silence.”

These comments echo something Gaga said last year during a conversation with Jamie Lee Curtis. “I don’t think I could think of a single thing that’s more isolating than being famous,” she said. “I think the hardest thing for me is that I love people so much and it is very hard to not be able to engage with people in a real and honest way… because they either want something from me or they see me as something that I simply am not.”

Gaga touches on her “feud” with Madonna in this new documentary as well. (If you’re unfamiliar, Madonna waged a war of sorts with Mother Monster after she thought “Born This Way” sounded a little too similar to “Express Yourself.” For the record, both songs are great — for very different reasons.)

“The thing with Madonna is I’ve admired her always,” Gaga says. “And I still admire her… no matter what she might think of me.”
