Lady Gaga's March 11 appearance on "The Howard Stern Show," featured acoustic performances of two MAYHEM favorites, "Abracadabra" and "Perfect Celebrity."
"I put together this other version of it I thought could be cool. I wanted to play it for my fans," she said of the new, piano-led and stripped down "Abracadabra" arrangement.
She then went on to introduce "Perfect Celebrity" as "a little bit of retaliation against [herself]."
Gaga also revealed that the process of making MAYHEM was more liberating than her past experiences, saying that she "started just feeling and allowing [herself] to just be free." And while not every track on the album was completed so quickly, her most recent hit single "Abracadabra," only took about half an hour to write.
Gaga also spoke about her fiancé, Michael Polanksy's, proposal, which inspired the track "Blade of Grass," as well as her future as a mother, saying "I think music will be a part of our child's life."
As for the chart-topping track, "Die With a Smile," with Bruno Mars, Gaga spoke about being at the studio "until five in the morning."
Finally, she reflected on her choice to take part in A Star is Born. "I like to take a shot. I like a little bit of danger...'Cause then you can surprise yourself."

Lady Gaga received the Innovator Award, which is presented to artists for their contributions to popular culture, at the iHeart Radio Music Awards on March 17, 2025.
Gaga also won the award for Best Collaboration for her Billboard Hot 100-topping, Grammy-winning duet with Bruno Mars, "Die With a Smile."
Watch her acceptance speech below:
Gaga started her speech by praising Doechii, who presented her the award.

She promised fans that while some people think being 38 is too old to be a pop star, she's just warming up.
"I don't know totally how to think about this, because winning an award honoring my entire career at 38 years old is a hard thing to get my head around. On the one hand, I feel like I've been doing this forever, and on the other hand, I know I'm just getting started," Gaga said.
She declared that innovation isn't about breaking rules, it's about writing your own and convincing the world they were there all along.
"If I've learned anything in three decades I've been at this, it's that the most powerful innovation is your authenticity," Gaga said.
She shouted out her inspirations: David Bowie, Grace Jones, Carole King, Elton John, Lady Starlight, Madonna, Stevie Wonder, Duke Ellington, Cher and Tony Bennett, some of which influenced her seventh studio album, "MAYHEM."
Gaga rounded out her speech by thanking her Little Monsters.
"Thank you for always seeing me so clearly, from 'The Fame' to 'MAYHEM.' Because you saw me, I learned to see myself. And to the LGBTQ+ community, you taught me bravery before the world was ready to listen. You have changed the world for the better and your courage fuels mine every single day," she said.
Her final words were, "The world doesn't need another copy. It desperately needs your original."

Here's the description of the episode:
So... LADY GAGA is on Las Culturistas. Somehow, we've reached the moment where the timeless artist herself sits down with Matt and Bowen to sort through the MAYHEM. The three chat about Gaga's incredible seventh album, rain as production value, choosing "Shallow" to perform at SNL50 and just how important SNL is to Lady Gaga and all the musical artists who get the opportunity to guest on the show. All this, dark arts and the poetry of pop music, transitioning from being a student of fame to being a student of entertainment, the role of humor in Gaga's creativity, the importance of the Chromatica Ball, how it really feels to be called "chaotic", and the choice to end her album with "Die With A Smile". Also, speaking up on trans rights at the Grammys, a tiny little preview of Coachella (but not really), Broadway hopes and dreams, whether or not a lighthearted film is in Gaga's future and how community is truly everything. What a perfect day! What a perfect pop icon for us all! And what perfect MAYHEM! Check out the album if you... haven't? But also... who are you? You should be OFF BOOK by now. Xo Killahs

In a new interview with The New York Times, Lady Gaga shares some thoughts about the character of the sound of her latest album "MAYHEM" :
"My sound is an amalgamation of the music that helped me fall in love with music. So it’s got classic rock in it, disco, electronic music, ’80s synth. It’s sort of like picking and choosing my favorite fragments of songs that I loved throughout my childhood. It is everything I love about music but all in one place."

During the interview, Lady Gaga agreed with Chappel Roan’s Grammy speech, in which she criticised record labels for failing to provide artists with healthcare or a living wage:
“I think Chappell Roan is speaking the truth, and she is courageous to do so.”
Gaga revealed that she nearly turned the whole record into a grunge album, but Michael, her fiancée, convinced her otherwise:
" There was one point where I almost turned the whole album into a grunge record.
He talked you out of that? I would have listened to that! There’s plenty of grunge on the album. It was right after I did “Perfect Celebrity,” that song, and I was like, “Oh, everything should be this,” and he said, but there’s so much other amazing music that you’ve made, and it’s all you. You don’t have to try to be something. I thought that was really astute, and I was happy it happened because often I will run with my crazy idea and then sometimes regret that."
On Finding Happiness: “I feel a lot more at ease with my artistry and also comfortable creating some boundaries around how to prioritize things.”
Lady Gaga also acknowledges the important role of her fans, the Little Monsters:
"They give me so much strength.They remind me of who I really am."

Later on in the interview, the artist opened up about her mental health issues for a period of 5 years:
"Yeah, I mean, I had psychosis. I was not deeply in touch with reality for a while. It took me out of life in a big way, and after a lot of years of hard work I got myself back. It was a hard time, and it was actually really special when I met my partner because when I met Michael, I was in a much better place, but I remember him saying to me, pretty early on, “I know you could be a lot happier than you are.” It was really hard for me to hear him say that because I didn’t want him to think that of me. I wanted him to think I was like this happy, totally together person."

Gaga again expressed her wish to become a mother:
"I would love to have kids one day. I’m excited to be a mom. I used to have a lot of apprehension about it. The thing that’s the most important to me is to not force my children to live a life that they are not choosing. So the more that we can give them space to discover who they are on their own, that’s the thing that I believe in the most. If our children only understand Mommy’s job, that’s a very narrow view of life. There’s so much in the world, and I want them to be able to choose for themselves who they want to be."

Lady Gaga spoke to Vogue about her artistry and her brand new album "MAYHEM."
Gaga talked about different feelings behind the songs on "MAYHEM":
"I allowed myself to be lots of contradictory things, and I think that’s real. 'Blade of Grass,' in a way, has a lot of insecurity in it, and 'Killah' has none. But I’m definitely the same person and I definitely have both of those feelings."
Speaking about the meta element in "Perfect Celebrity," she added:
"It’s an angry song; I’m angry at myself. It felt like a song that had been inside of me for 15 years that I needed to get out. I’m still nervous for people to hear it. ... Because my life changed so much when I was in my early 20s, it took some of the realness of life away from me, and that really changed my songwriting. Now, as I’ve gotten older, I value my artistry before fame. Having an amazing relationship now—closer friendships, more time with family, and a more grounded life—has helped my writing and helped me think about fame in a different way. But [“Perfect Celebrity”] still came out in the way that it did, and I didn’t want to change it too much. I felt myself judging myself while I was writing, but then I was like, nope—just be honest! Because I really wanted Mayhem to be honest in all of its craziness."
Speaking about her Coachella comeback, she teased:
“I’m going to give it everything I’ve got.”

Lady Gaga was interviewed by Rolling Stone magazine, where she described the creative process behind her brand-new album "MAYHEM."
Speaking about her inspiration for the album, Gaga mentioned "The Fame Monster" and "Born This Way," adding:
“I wanted to traverse old ground while breaking new ground, which I think is hard to do. There are a few moments on the album where some people might say, ‘Oh, that reminds me of this,’ because I do have a style, but I made an effort musically to push myself to a new place.”
She also shared what "MAYHEM" is about:
“'MAYHEM,' to me, is ultimately about resilience and also chaos. We need to be resilient through chaos. So, it’s both. I do think I explored more sonically with bitterness on this album in a way that maybe I didn’t with some of my earlier records.”
Talking about how the album ends with two love songs, she said:
“So it was eerie, tense, really ominous chords. But then (‘Blade of Grass’ and) ‘Die With A Smile’ are really hopeful, dreamy, and classic, and that’s where the mayhem ultimately ends. The beauty of the album is that the mayhem doesn’t repeat. It ends.”
