For the past 12 months, Ian Halperin has been doing research for a new book, this time on eccentric pop star Lady Gaga. After speaking to staff and people close to her, Halperin has come up with a series of very startling claims: she’s a walking time bomb.
Lady Gaga has never made a secret of the fact that she used drugs when she was younger, but she never really told her fans just how much she was into them – and perhaps continues to be, Halperin says in a new interview cited by
Radar Online.
She’s tried everything: if it’s illegal, she’s done it, claims the author. At the same time, Gaga has a very sick
obsession with her weight and would starve herself for weeks to make she’d fit into her stage outfits.
“Those who have worked with her on tour reported to me that Gaga barely ate for weeks at a time to fit into her costume,” Halperin reveals.
As we
also noted on a previous occasion, talk that Gaga was doing
something to stay thin, something unhealthy has been around for quite some time but was repeatedly – and furiously – denied by the singer herself.
“She is sick and obsessed with her weight. One friend told me, Gaga will stare at herself in the mirror for hours on end, analyzing and critiquing her body. It’s an unhealthy obsession,” Halperin says.
As for the Lady Gaga public persona she’s created, it’s just smoke and mirrors, a cover for a far more disturbing secret that the star is trying to keep from her fans.
“Her lupus is far worse than she lets on. Part of the reason she wears wigs and makeup is because her hair is falling out and she’s covered in red blotches, both side effects of the disease,” Halperin explains.
She’s taken everything so far that her friends and family don’t even know her anymore, it is further claimed.
“She’s morphed into this caricature called Lady Gaga, who isn’t even a real person. The girl known as Stefi to her friends and family has all but disappeared,” Halperin says.
Lady Gaga has not yet responded to the new outrageous claims.
