Lady Gaga Attends 'A Star Is Born' Press Conference at TIFF

Lady Gaga Attends 'A Star Is Born' Press Conference at TIFF

Lady Gaga, Bradley Cooper, Sam Elliott, Dave Chapelle, and Anthony Ramos attended the official press conference at Toronto International Film Festival for the new movie A Star Is Born on Sunday. Gaga discussed her first leading movie role, working with Bradley, and more. Take a look at the live stream below.

Talking on her stripped-down image in the film, Gaga said: ''I do love makeup. And I love fashion, and costumes, and drag, and I do a lot of it myself. But I think it was the friendship where I really trusted Bradley in exposing myself in a way that I've never exposed myself before. He wanted no make-up on my face. I dyed my hair my natural color. It was a challenge, but it was also very liberating.''

Mother Monster also mentioned that behind every female icon is a gay man behind, referring to the support the gay community has brought to her: ''I make a joke sometimes, behind every female icon is a gay man. I really wouldn’t be here without the gay community, what they have taught me about love and acceptance and bravery. They have wrapped their arms lovingly around me. It's something I'm very grateful for and I'm very grateful that Bradley honored it in the film''.
