Full Interview: Lady Gaga Talks To Stephen Colbert

[@Gartenzwergi]

thank you Stephen for giving her the space to talk without interrupting her. Much appreciated.

[@christicrenshaw2772]

I hate that too when they interrupt.

[@Bellatrixstrange09]

Sissi K no hate but jimmy Fallon and Conan O’Brien do that a lot.

​@@Bellatrixstrange09 i do hate fallon because he such a jerk by interrupting the guests and make funny jokes on every thing the speak of ..... but stephen is very okay in this one >>> i remember Dakota johansen mentioned that to jimmy fallon when he kept interrupt her story

[@Bellatrixstrange09]

Mohammad Zakareyya you definitely have a point. He does interrupt a lot. Like to the point where the interview becomes about jimmy and not about the guest.

[@momo198000]

@@Bellatrixstrange09 in the first i liked him but it happens to be more irritating to the guests who hate that and start not to share their real funny stories with fallon .... on the other hand jimmy kimmel give the guest some space more than fallon and now liked his way more than fallon. and by the way i dont think there are any great interviewer happen to be avilable now in the US after Opera ..... she was one of me favorite she and larry king. -------------------------------------- and by the way we here in egypt suffer the same way, there are 1 or 2 interviewer can handle to make a conversation so i think it more like an international problem

Late Show staff: THANK YOU for putting out long form interview videos like this when they occur. I would watch more like this. It's so annoying to have to watch 3 or 4 different videos that were segments in the edited show.

[@TinkletitsMcGee]

It was likely paid by Warner Bros to promote the movie. Which is a good thing. They should do this more often.

[@Fuchsia_tude]

Basically every one of Stephen's videos gets 7-digit views, that's a minimum $2k advertising revenue a pop. Pretty sure his show can afford to post these videos of things he's recording anyway for TV all on its own

[@miriamiglesias6335]

I never knew much about Lady Gaga, I thought she was way over the top, but this wonderful interview showed me how wrong I was. She touched me deeply with her comments about sexual abuse and how we put it in a box and shut it so we can continue living, until something triggers the memory and the box explodes wide open. That is EXACTLY how it happens and only a survivor like myself knows it.

Stephen Colbert looks a lot more serious interviewing her when he’s usually always sarcastic or funny. He seems to respect her as an artist and her talent. Love it!

[@HRHDMKYT]

Maybe he has to interview phony people even when he doesn't want to, just because they are in the public eye. But you can tell when he genuinely admires a guest, like he showed in this interview of Lady Gaga. She's really a lovely person, and what she said about Dr. Ford was so spot-on, it brought tears to my eyes. I'm sorry Stephanie had to suffer a sexual assault; I am very glad she survived and lived to tell the tale. May Brett Kavanaugh burn in hell for what he did to Dr. Ford (& other women I'm sure), and I truly believe he will pay the price for his actions after he crosses over (praying that is soon...). He is absolutely unfit for a position on the Supreme Court. They should abolish that "term for life". Then once Biden gets into office, he could oust the sexual assaulters and harrassers such as Kavanaugh & Clarence Thomas, and replace them with judges who are decent people like Merrick Garland.

[@b-dub6865]

It’s cuz he watched the movie & loved it. He never watches his guests’ movies/series.

[@amarawinchester963]

That’s because he is afraid of her reaction. You should see a Gaga documentary everyone is very cautious when they are talking to her. She is not being herself here because most of the time she is so depressed and emotional in this documentary.

[@katecooper5007]

First off, He is such a good interviewer and so deserves this show. Second, I have the greatest respect for Lady Gaga for always speaking her mind with such conviction and clarity. I look forward to seeing this movie.

[@avedic]

This really opened up my mind about Lady Gaga. She's legit the shit. And Colbert seemed totally smitten by her charm, intelligence, ethics, and unabashed self-determination. I can't blame him...I was too. It's funny....some Colbert interviews can be awkward and offputting, when he doesn't click with a guest. But when he does click...it's magic. I loved how he ended this with an utterly genuine _"thank you for being here."_ He _meant_ it.

[@SpiderCenturion]

You know all of this is scripted, right?

[@walerk0]

I had the same reaction after her carpool karaoke segment. Like she said, she's the boss.

[@Cutelittlecountrygirl]

well said its very true that its uncomfortable when he has no fitting with a guest but wow these both are from the same cloth.... must be the scared heart vibe who knows but ultimately the magic came through what a brilliant interview show slot absolutely fantastic. Gaga really makes Barbara S proud like no other actress I believe, you know why? SHE HAS DEPTH! Bless her!

[@Truthy-Fruity]

Colbert is magical tonight. Gaga bared her soul tonight. I've always liked her, but that speech about Ford and MeToo survivor, that is GOLD. She won my heart. And how they both wrapped it up, that moment, my friend. That cannot be scripted.

What I love about this interview is that Stephen lets Lady Gaga speak and doesn't interrupt her. That he let's her speak. Asks some questions but mostly listens. Kudos, Mr. Colbert. I tip my hat to you. Also, the stuff from 25:30 I will now be sharing with people who say stuff like "If it happened, why didn't she say it sooner..." Assholes. This is why.

[@verbst]

@@SuperAdam2468 Well, not recently. I may be spoiled by Trevor Noah, but I noticed that Stephen sometimes rushes the interviews and keeps interrupting the guests. May be the cuts, though... Because in these long interviews I don't notice it that much.

[@YoutubeSun1]

verbst EXACTLY! Thank you! I was molested by my older cousin at the age of 5- yes 5. I told no one AT ALL until I was 35 and sought counseling. That “box” I hid for so long; full of trauma, and unwarranted shame was ready to implode my well being due to my own destructive behaviors. I remember being a happy, fun, jovial child before that. (I have cheesy pics of me at four doing the Fonzie thumbs up, and me at 3, at Disneyland walking down a bench acting like a 70’s model). Then THAT happened. I try not to, bc I know it’s not good, but I often wonder who and where I’d be if that HUGE incident hadn’t altered my psyche indefinitely. Yes, I know, *some* women lie, but MOST DON’T. For Dr. Ford to put herself out there AND take an oath, and then not be believed and even mocked by the assaulter in chief, was the strongest/hardest thing she’s ever had to do. She was what 13-15 years old. If I was 5 and can remember this, just bc I never told “anyone sooner”. DOES. NOT. MEAN. IT. DID’NT. HAPPEN.

[@anukal1205]

I know right! It's amazing how he has basic interviewing skills. So unusual for an TV talk show host.

[@armaniv6455]

Because Pancakes yet all her witnesses denied the accounts and nothing was found on Kavanaugh ... and now she’s dropped pursuing the case instead of fervently demanding justice. Additional points - she didn’t want this to be public (yet she went to the Democratic Party instead of her local senator address the issue). President trump was accused during his presidency (yet never any time before - interesting) and the accusations fell apart - thus for now making him innocent until otherwise prevent guilty meaning he cannot be called an assaulter...but as with the case of those defending Dr.Ford (as with Emit Till [excuse any misspelling]), evidence doesn’t matter .. only the word of a wealthy white woman

[@c.muller20]

I‘m gonna say it: Stephen Colbert is the best host! Those questions, the way he listened to her, the way he followed up on her thoughts...incredible. With any other host Lady Gaga‘s excellence could not have been brought forward in this way... No other interview made me want to watch this movie but this made me wanna see it right now! Look at his expression after Lady Gaga mentioned her own experience as a sexual assault survivor. His feelings and thoughts are genuine.

[@carolburrows5760]

I so so agree with you. My friends didn't get my enthusiasm for this gifted, smart, enthusiastic, beauty with an amazing voice and her range(well...incredible). She hooked us with the outlandish getups getting noticed, then showed them all it was just the tip of the iceberg (so to speak) when she showed her underlying greatness and talent, by doing what I will call here, like singing and performing with some of the greats. What a gift the world has been given to have THE Lady in this fray with us.

[@sallydeb]

It is a shame but inevitable. We all have lots going on in our lives and different tastes. I had lost interest in popular music before her career started. I missed the first 10 years, it's an incredible journey catching up with KZbin footage. I now know she's the best popular performer of her generation and in the top ten of the last century. Lady Gaga deserves to be a super star not only for her talent but because she has worked so hard and with such passion to gain multiple skills to perform with such dramatic artistry. She not flawless, she is human, but in some ways she's super human. Inspirational.

One of Stephen Colbert's purest interviews. I see why Stefani Germanotta has such success. She appears so humble, warm. She is a star, in a good way.

[@EyeOnSciFiPod]

This is one of the BEST Lady Gaga interviews I've ever seen. I love the way Colbert doesn't constantly interrupt his guests to inject himself into the interview. Also, I've long admired Gaga's talent. When I first heard her, I remember thinking, this woman can sing, something many modern pop stars can't do. There are videos of Gaga vocals stripped down without tracks added. Superb. People derided her because of her costumes, but the woman has talent to back up her theatrics. Now for Madonna.I'm 49, so I was in junior high when she came the scene. Madonna can dance, but her vocal talent is... limited. Her genius is in self-promotion. She knew shock value would establish her career. Raw sexuality that would seem quaint now was controversial back in the 80s + 90s. But Madonna has proven to be extremely arrogant. Shes criticized Gaga and made snide comments about other artist. Oh well. Gaga has real talent and that speaks for itself. Now Gaga has both a hit flm, soundtrack, and winning raves for her acting. Something Madonna tried but never achieved. Oh well.

[@indovonne]

Yeah unlike jimmy fallon who constantly interrupt his guests.

[@winterlynn9012]

You forget Madonna was praised for her role in Evita and was pretty much the lady gaga of her time. Possibly bigger. True her singing was not the best but she's still had some great songs. Arrogant? Definitely. But that's Madonna. Even though i dislike Madonna nowadays I still give her props for the way she kept reinventing herself throughout the 80s and 90s and for paving the way for others. She was a bad bitch back then. Unfortunately can't say the same for nowadays.

That explanation Lady Gaga gave about Ford's experience is the best I've seen. Very smart & talented woman. I have to admit I was never the biggest fan of Gaga's music but I've gained entirely new respect for her after seeing A Star is Born & this interview. And Steven is absolutely correct. Everyone should see this movie. It's good for the soul.

[@Ronsonpeters]

PazmanTV I highly recommend reading up on who she is and the type of artist she is. She may be pop, but she is also a true artist, and is educated and talented in ways many do not expect

[@PazmanBC]

Ronson Peters I actually realized this when I saw her in A Star is Born this week. Her performance in that movie is so amazing you can't help but notice her talent but also how intelligent she must be to pull this all off. I was never a huge Lady Gaga fan but I've gained an all new respect for her after seeing this movie. Her intellect in the way she responded to the Ford situation is just icing on the cake. This is someone who is highly educated & naturally intelligent.

[@gadfly1235]

I am not a "pop" fan, but after I listened to her music I was very impressed. She has grown as an artist and a person, and her defense of Ford (and all sexual survivors) was probably the the clearest, most eloquent "lay-person" statements I have ever heard.

[@dyl2858]

[@hayleyperkins5994]

She's a very nervous, and kinda awkward person sometimes.. It's very endearing. Such a talented lady.

[@muratguler6592]

That's because of her PTSD from the sexual assault at the age of 19. + She's been brutally criticized by media ever since she came to the scene (that shes an hermaphrodite, satan worshipper etc) and on top of that, she broke her hip in 2011 on the 96th show of her world tour. The next album was ARTPOP and it was absolutely the worst times Gaga has been through because of media again. Take a look at ARTPOP and the street performances from that era. She worked with Marina Abramovic and she had an exhibition in the Louvre museum. What a life! (For more inspiration, you can watch 'Gaga: Five Foot Two' on Netflix.

Thats like me with my own retail business and I can manage everything from sales to IT and in my spare time I can do many electronic things (worked as a technician some years in my youth as well). Now lets look at Lady Gaga - shes under 30, has ONLY ever been in the music industry - she cannot say she's worked a hotel for 15 years or anything else. Shes very successful, earns millions from her great singing talent and provocative videos and is completely shielded from "the common Joe's" life. Suddenly she comes out as a part time politician at such a young age. No thanks, I don't need advice from entertainment singers, actors and the like. Just because you're an actor/singer does not mean you have some kind of special insight into the workings of the world.

[@franniealbaugh1298]

Lady Gaga, you have me in tears. Everything you said about sexual abuse and/or assault explains so much about survival and how it works. You explained it so simply and clearly. That “little file box” stays safely stored away because of fear, inability to understand (from being much too young), feeling helpless to do anything about it, it’s frightening to try to ask anyone trustworthy at the time, because of fear or the feelings of more negative repercussions, or just the awful acceptance that “it happens a lot to little girls, just get used to it, or try not to ever be alone around boys or men”, so that’s what I tried to do. Eventually, as I aged I luckily learned I didn’t have to take it anymore, alone or with others. I didn’t like the way it made me feel, like I was an object not a person, and I talked back, fought back or whatever it took to stay safe. I was lucky enough to avoid anything truly tragic, but some guys and their egos, always had belittling comments, but down deep I knew I’d done the moral thing and I learned that there are people in this world that have no morals or conscience. I’m 67 now and I still have my”little file box”, but I’m grateful and proud of all you brave women, in position, that speak out now and take the belittling, immoral, and ignorant public abuse from the majority of the apathetic men that, unfortunately, run our country at this time. Thank you for all that you do to speak out, raise awareness and for your compassionate bravery. And most importantly, for being you and an inspiration to so many on so many different levels. Seeing that small clip of the movie and seeing the “real you” blew me away. I could see the vulnerability, I could “see your true beauty and your soul”. I wish you continued success in all that you pursue. The new movie sounds so inspiring, I believe many nominations will come from this “labor of love” by all.

If you got in a car accident then got nervous being in a car, it's understandable. Right? You'd avoid cars for a while. This is the same thing.

[@pickclawraider4206]

The problem you face is that your definition of trigger warning is much different than what it is today. If a trigger warning were only related to things like PTSD or clinically diagnosed anxiety/depression/etc. that would be one thing. People take legitimate words and warp the meaning to fit their own agenda. Trigger warnings today are more akin to protecting people from any source of possible offense, no matter how mundane or insignificant. The sad truth is that the majority of people will experience a plethora of heart ache, pain and discomfort. It is impossible to be so careful and sensitive as to avoid causing anyone else offense or discomfort by the words we use. Sure, people don't need to be assholes to each other, but I feel my generation and those that follow lack any semblance of resilience or the ability to take a hit and keep on. Under almost no pressure or stress people buckle completely and lose all functionality. This is not healthy. But, to each their own.

[@LadyDynamitez]

Pickclaw Raider, yeah, the thing is, people didn't really understand what TRIGGERED or TRIGGER even mean. Something that makes you slightly uncomfortable? Triggered. I believe it started from the site tumblr, because that's where I saw shit loads of it. Even saw a "trigger warning" for TREES. It was ridiculous and humorous to me from day one. And because of those, the point and meaning of triggered and trigger warnings became a joke, when it's a real, serious thing that exists.

[@pickclawraider4206]

LadyDynamitez, Sure, I understand, and give it to the internet to take anything at all and turn it into a joke, no surprise there, but my point still stands. When something is offensive to me, I turn away from it, turn it off, or separate myself from it. I don't start a crusade to end all things offensive to me, even if it really hurts, then I move on. I try not to be an asshat to people in general, and sometimes perhaps my sense of humor gets the best of me (I tend to be pretty crude, but I'm also considerate of people around me). I just think we should be teaching younger generations to be more resilient and emotionally stronger to be able to weather the difficulties in life without caving in, or making everything such a huge deal. I think far more damage is done by people crying victim, when they dwell and stew over something. It's a fantasy though, things are getting worse and worse.

Stephen Colbert is one of those hosts who knows exactly how to bring the best out of his guest. I watched the Nicki Minaj interview and it changed how I viewed her music. This interview has done the same for me with Stefani Germanotta. She's got soul.

[@jeffersonestela649]

Agree to this.

[@paolovonbraumberger1974]

I couldn't agree more.

[@TNTales]

I like how she includes everyone in her talking including the band.

[@terryrobert1467]

Hello

[@mayatzur4581]

She is such a rare person

[@mmasimi]

I love this interview. Both appear so natural, just two people having a conversation. The length of time that he allowed for it to happen, his understanding of the movies his willingness to dive into various scenes. Oh woah! I'm sold on the movie, going to see it here shortly.

[@ianscorner2330]

Where u located at? Haven't seen the movie yet. Im from the Philippines. :)

[@aBitChopsyOfLate]

This woman never stops to amaze me. There's just something about her raw passion, love and compassion that really touches something in me. She always stands up for the weak and fights for them with all she has in her with the brave ferocity of a lion. I simply adore this woman and my monster paw will forever be held high.

[@MsNonna4]

I was never a fan, but she has changed me. What an actress! What a voice! She did such a fantastic job. She is so talented and honest. I love her NY style -- the empathy together with her direct and honest approach, and her willingness to trust in people she feels are honest and trusting of her. What a big heart!

[@rachelrobertdavies5269]

I smiled all the way through this video. She's amazing.

She's such a sweet baby angel! I 🖤 her so much.

She is so multi dimensional! The fact the she shows humility and starts from scratch.....shows vulnerability..... That's the way to do it!! Bravo LADY GAGA! Very much like Streisand....Oscar on the way......💜💙💚

[@carlosponce7314]

Randy Cox I like her, but she certainly didn’t start from scratch... she comes from a Rich family.

[@gjnoto1]

I wouldnt have high hopes of she winning best actress .What if she gets snubbed then you ll be sad.

[@DawnNLN-ee2kh]

Yup! Laddy gay gay!

[@jamesbadham9665]

I don't see how you can know that to be so. She strikes me as natural and authentic. Her acting is the same.

[@Truthy-Fruity]

I haven't been that touched since Michelle Obama's New Hampshire speech.

[@ThatGuyyZeus]

@Buen Gato awwww, you caught some mistakes that were made...how sweet. If you watch FOX NEWS, how can you believe them... they do not fact check but say everyone else is wrong.... Every news outlet you use to watch, you stopped because TRUMP SAID NOT WATCH THEM..... They lie, how does every other outlet say the same thing but the rich right wing fox news media..... I cant wait till you find out on your own. Fucking idiot

[@imiau99]

"Those were real tears." She actually means it, the last scene, her singing I'll Never Love Again was put on hold because she had to rush to the hospital where her best friend Sonja was hospitalized and couldn't say goodbye because she missed her by something like 10 mins then she went back to the theater and even tho Bradley wanted to reschedule it she didn't let him.

[@angelinarobles4486]

Oh my god I didn’t know this- now I’ll cry even more watching that scene

[@brandontydings865]

Literally just got out of the theater. Amazing movie, her and Bradley are unbelievable. The story is heartbreaking and wonderful. Can’t wait till I can see it again! Awesome interview Stephen!

[@CR-be3un]

Nice interview. I appreciated Gaga's raw honesty and Colbert is the best; he's intelligent, thoughtful, and listens well.

[@glennoc8585]

C R I'd like Colbert more if he'd drop the whole trump.thing it's very old now.

This was such a wonderful interview. Wow.

[@jasonpop1628]

I only knew LADY GAGA as a name,among many others of late.This interview combined with seeing the movie last night has made me a real fan.I adore BARBARA ,and GAGA is so like her,yet so much her self. What a moving interview.

[@AuntyFabulous23]

She is quite a woman. I didn't know much about her until A Star Is Born. Even then, I just enjoyed the story and her music. Glad to discover a gem in a star. She is precious.

[@sheilalaffey879]

Never paid much attention to her songs but after seeing A Star Is Born and hearing this thoughtful interview I want to see more of her talented creative work!

[@TLG-nc4ff]

she has some great songs a million reasons always makes me cry

[@Royalbob123]

Agree. Same here. Watched a few of her songs.m but shall pay more attention . Can’t wait to watch this very matured movie. Great talent and good human being. 👍

[@laurastandley4834]

Watch her half time performance during one of the Superbowls. She nailed it.

[@josievanluis5986]

My fav songs oh hers where it really displays her voice are Brown eyes, speechless, you and I. Those are all beautiful songs please give them a listen.

[@typicalloudparrot1744]

TeamJosie14 those and *_-The Cure-_* That song sounds like a letter to those who support her and enjoy her performances. She is a true entertainer. She wants her crowds to feel safe and comfortable and happy, at least for the little while, while they that watch or listen to her performances.

[@NoxyRae]

I always thought she was talented, but I've only had the pleasure of hearing her singing voice. This interview showed me an intelligence that simply mesmerized me. Thank you, Stefani, for speaking so passionately about some of the current situations of our time. It is, unfortunately, shallow indeed.

[@ramblingrose6604]

She's so down to earth and talented in so many ways that she will always do well in her chosen career!

[@mermaidinthesea2]

Can I say one thing.... I just love how in this interview the presenter is like completely lost in Gaga's words and he's just there contemplating her while she talks. This shows how wonderful she is, that even the presenter was lost in her.

This movie was so fucking fantastic I cannot explain. Its like watching a very private story you feel you shouldnt see, like 2 people really falling in love. I had chills, I cried my eyes out and I'll see it again. They are connected by soul I tell you.

I love the way she laughs, breathing faster and rhythmically, for longer than you think she is going to laugh... she is really amazing. She is a good storyteller.

[@jackiecessna9951]

I was not a fan of lady Gaga and the rwasin was because I felt she got famous because of what I referred to as her "gimic". Please don't hate on me. I am being honest. I didn't give her music a chance. I just couldn't see past it. It distracted me from her talent. Example, Alicia Keys came out with her first hit, it hit a place in me where it took my breath away. I had no idea who this was but her voice went straight to my soul. Barbara Streisand, yep she has always stunned me with her inctedible vocal talent and her acting and directing! So when I heard Gaga sing in the movie trailer, I couldn't breath. She was absolutely breath taking! Now I watch this interview and I am equally amazed and stunned at how beautiful this wiman is on the inside and out! I will be a fan from this day forward! So, thank you Steven and THANK YOU Gaga! Thank you Bradley for beliving in this incredible young lady!

[@hannahtriz]

You should check out her albums after 2009. I highly recommend you check out her Cheek To Cheek album with the amazing Tony Bennett

[@alessiabyrne8746]

me too. more than anything i like how humble she seems.

[@tubbytuba1]

@@alessiabyrne8746 Maybe not humble, but just authentic and real...no BS.

[@sinan32121]

Well to be fair those gimmick were her mastering a different style than most people are used to, high art commercial pop. Her beginnings have been compared to Warhol, artists hated him for his commercialism but he did what he did well. From there she went on to master Jazz, classical, you name it. You might not enjoy everything she did but that's normal, everyone has different tastes. The good thing with Gaga is she's so versatile that she's able to reach audiences of varying tastes through different art forms.

[@stephanieengel7131]

I am right there with you!! I was super annoyed with her music from the beginning because it was just not focused on the artistry (I know the little monsters are going to disagree but I don't mean the costumes and all of the other stuff around the actual voice). I know someone who knows her closely on a personal level and so, yes, I was aware that she is a very different person in her life out of the public eye. But this made me appreciate her as an artist and I am looking forward to exploring her catalogue!

[@valbrand3018]

Wow, I don't even listen to her music but her authenticity is beautiful. So brave.

[@wendyfern1703]

Lady Gaga made a fan out of Stephen Colbert for sure. She is so unbelievably wonderful.

[@Darlenem222]

She is beautiful in the movie, no makeup, hair color, everything. Best movie of the year!

I totally loved her after this movie. And I've never ever admired her before. Seeing her real changed all my mind.
