Did Lady Gaga Get Plastic Surgery? Everything the Grammy Winner Has Said About Going Under the Knife

Refusing to Be a ‘Sexpot’

“If people wanted me to look like a sexpot, I would look like the opposite,” Gaga said about industry pressure to change her appearance. She’s seen here at the start of her career in December 2008 while performing at New York’s Z100 Jingle Ball.

‘No’ to a Nose Job

“Before my first single ever came out, it was suggested I get a nose job, but I said, ‘No.’ I love my Italian nose,” the singer-actress revealed in a 2018 interview. She’s seen here at the 2010 MTV Europe Music Awards.

Gaga Was ‘Born This Way’

“I have never had plastic surgery, and there are many pop singers who have,” the singer revealed in a 2011 interview.

Keeping the Same Face

In the same interview, Gaga asked, “And how many models and actresses do you see on magazine covers who have brand-new faces and have had plastic surgery, while I myself have never had any plastic surgery? I am an artist, and I have the ability and the free will to choose the way the world will envision me.”

Admits to Injectables

“I’ve never had any work-work done, but I went through a phase when I was smoking pot when I was really obsessed with getting facial injections,” Gaga told Howard Stern during a 2013 interview.

OK With Fillers

“I’m telling you, I wasn’t exactly in the best frame of mind, and I would smoke a bunch of joints and have some drinks and I would be like, ‘Oh, let’s go see my girl’ and we would drive to this strip mall and I would get shot up with a bunch of whatever, Juvederm, and then leave,” she told Howard about her previous love of fillers.

Time to Stop

The singer told Howard Stern she finally quit using facial fillers after, “A photographer friend was like, ‘Gaga, I love you but if you don’t stop injecting s—t in your face, I’m going to just kill you’.”

Showing Her Natural Beauty

Gaga recalled to the The LA Times how nervous she was to go without makeup in A Star Is Born. She revealed of actor-director Bradley Cooper, “I remember very, very well, I walked down the stairs from my house before we filmed the screen test for A Star Is Born, and Bradley had a makeup wipe in his hand and he put his hand on my face and he went like this, and there was makeup, but just a little bit and he said, ‘I want no makeup on your face.’”

‘Insecure’ About Her Looks

Gaga continued about her makeup-free look for the film, “It put me right in the place I needed to be, because when my character talks about how ugly she feels – that was real, I’m so insecure. I like to preach, but I don’t always practice what I preach.”
