Some fans of Lady Gaga took the stage of the San Marcos stadium to sing with her ‘You and I’ in the medieval castle she had built. It was the end of 2012 and one of the great music stars arrived in Lima as part of his tour of Latin America, which took the name of his second album ‘Born This Way’.
The Oscar winner did not fill the stadium, but her stay had been news. He celebrated Thanksgiving at a home in Lurín, visited a school in the window and, when he was resting at the house he had chosen in San Isidro, a group of fans tried to approach her and was ‘trapped’ in the garage. “I guess should be angry, except because I try to understand how they slid under the door,” he tweeted.
His step until he became a celebrity pursued by the paparazzi did marked his career, he points out in an interview for BBC. With the album, ‘Mayhem’ (chaos), the artist has returned to her origins: pop. He had already shared demos in advance with the fans who waited her outside the hotel after her participation in the Olympic Games. “I used to, after my shows, invite my fans to the backstage, we spent time together and played let’s see what they thought.”

The song ‘Abracadabra’ takes up the rhythm of the album ‘Artpop’ and, in the song ‘Perfect Celebrity’, described as the best, the singer says: “I became a notorious being.” After seeing her on the ‘Chromatica’ tour (which began with his successes ‘Bad Romance’, ‘Just dance’ and ‘Poker Face’), his partner, businessman Michael Polansky, had suggested to return to pop. “I felt a lot of pressure, over the years, to demonstrate my worth as a musician. And that sometimes prevented me from having fun. So I tried to have fun doing this album, ”he told Billboard.

BBC was confessed that ‘Perfect Celebrity’ is probably “the most angry song about fame” he has written. “I created this public personality in which I was really becoming every way, and maintaining that duality, knowing where I start and where Lady Gaga ends, it was really a challenge. He depressed me a little. What I really realized is that it is healthier not to have a dividing line and integrate those two things into a complete human being. ”
Also, he argues, he wants to clarify that artistic creation is of it and not other people who attributed merit. “I really wanted to visit my inspirations again, my career and assume it as my invention, once and for all.”
Lady Gaga acknowledges that her greatest fear had been loneliness. “I think my greatest fear was doing this alone: living life alone.” Now he says that he lives “a full life” because he can be for his friends and his family. “All these things made me a complete person, instead of the most important thing was my personality on stage. I wanted ‘Mayhem’ to have an end. I wanted chaos to stop. I moved away from the icon. It ends with love. ”
