On the #MeToo movement: "I feel like I've been an advocate but also a shocked audience member, watching #MeToo happen. I'm still in disbelief. And I've never come forward and said who molested me, but I think every person has their own relationship with that kind of trauma."
On her upcoming "Lady Gaga Enigma" shows in Las Vegas: "I've always hated the stigma around Las Vegas — that it's where you go when you're on the last leg of your career. Being a Las Vegas girl is an absolute dream for me. It's really what I've always wanted to do."
On the importance of human connection: "I am not a brand. I have my unique existence, just as everyone else does, and at the end of the day, it's our humanity that connects us — our bodies and our biology. That's what breeds compassion and empathy, and those are the things that I care the most about. Kindness!"
