“After I was raped, I cried on her couch for days,” Gaga recalled. “Eventually she turned on MTV and told me to look up. A female artist was performing. My grandmother said, ‘I’ll let you cry the rest of the day, but then tomorrow you’re going to go back out and make a real change in this world. No more tears tomorrow.’”

Also in the interview, Gaga said that her younger sister Natali Germanotta is one of her heroes.

I love her heart, her mind, her nature, which is abundantly good and pure,” Gaga shared. “Her ability to laugh during hard times is exceptional. We can both be crying, and all of a sudden she’ll tell a joke.

At the 2020 VMAs last month, Lady Gaga opened up about the importance of wearing a mask.
