Oscar winning Gaga, who stars in Joker: Folie à Deux as Harley Quin, opposite Joaquin Phoenix, shared that spending time out of the public eye has allowed her some much needed time to “have a personal life” and to recharge and heal herself.
“I can say for the first time in many years that my love of making art, music, fashion, and supporting community has never been more fulfilling.
“I hope you know this time to myself has been extremely healing and recharging for my heart, mind, body, and creativity — to create within myself and to have a personal life that’s just for me.
“I’m sure that may feel different because I haven’t always been so private (I bet that will make some of you laugh) — but I LOVE my fans, my little monsters, so much and that will never change.”
The multi-talented artist said she’s been working on a film to accompany her 2022 album The Chromatica Ball.
“I can’t WAIT for you to experience it. Thank you for being willing to grow with me so that I can change and transform with the community I love so much.
“I hope you love all the things I’ve been creating for you and I hope this is a small reminder to you of my deep passion and commitment to art.”
It may not come as a surprise that Gaga has enjoyed being away from the limelight, having confessed in the past to a desire to “have time to be alone.”
The star previously told Wallpaper magazine: “It’s really nice to just have time to be alone, and be expansive, and know that you’re enough. I wish I could tell my younger self that.
“When I was younger, I spent a lot of time alone writing music,” she continued, adding, “But the more successful I became, the more I felt like I needed other people to tell me I was great.”
