Singer discussed her mental health at length in a new interview with Oprah Winfrey
Lady Gaga has discussed the post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) she suffered after being “raped repeatedly” at the age of 19.
The singer talked at length about her mental health in an interview with Oprah Winfrey as part of the presenter’s 2020 Vision: Your Life In Focus tour.
“I was raped repeatedly when I was 19 years old,” said Gaga, “and
I also developed PTSD as a result of being raped and also not
processing that trauma.”
Gaga said the abuse was carried out by someone she knew. “I all
of a sudden became a star and was travelling the world going from hotel
room to garage to limo to stage, and I never dealt with it, and then all
of a sudden I started to experience this incredible intense pain
throughout my entire body that mimicked the illness I felt after I was
raped.”
In 2019, Gaga apologised for collaborating with R Kelly following his arrest for multiple counts of sexual assault against young women. The pair had worked together on the 2013 song “Do What U Want (With My Body)”.
