Glamorous life Quote by Lady Gaga
“I actually made a choice to keep my life pretty normal. At some point about two years ago I said to myself, 'OK, am I going to put my toe in Hollywood's pond and figure out if I want to live a glamorous life and assimilate to the glamorous lifestyle?', but I really didn't want to do it. And I don't like Hollywood and I don't like the whole scene and I just said, 'I'm going to go home and figure out how to be the first popstar to live in the same neighbourhood for the rest of their life that I grew up in', and that's what I do. I still live where I always lived. I still hang out and drink whisky at the same bars. I still go to the same hardware store.”
