Lady GaGa: “My first piano teacher was a stripper”

We’re beginning to work out where Lady GaGa gets her style – probably from the stripper that her daddy hired to teach her piano.

Regardless, it sounds like she gets her wild side from her dad.

“He was having sex with girls under the boardwalk in New Jersey before he went to see Bruce Springsteen,” she said.

“He saw a lot of himself in me. My first piano teacher was a stripper. My dad told me later. I used to say to her, ‘Why do you have such long nails?’ She just said, ‘Someday you’ll understand why.’”

GaGa does owe a lot to her dad though.

“I was for sure addicted to coke. I got off it because my father called me out and kicked my ass,” she said.

“I didn’t do it with people, I did it alone. But I regret every line I did.”
