“I’ve only met her once, but I had, like, a two-hour conversation with her nonstop the first time that I hung out with her, right before ‘Just Dance’ came out, and thought she was the coolest, smartest [person]. I was like, ‘God, she’s got her crap together.’ She was legit.
“So I don’t know her, I don’t pretend like I know her, but the fact that I, for a moment, connected with her humanity, and I know how hard we work, and I know the schedule after ‘Apologize’ blew up… the longest stretch of time we were home in a row, for about 13 months, was two and a half days. And that can push you to a brink, where your job becomes who you are, and you end up reaching a breaking point, where all of a sudden you hate it, and you just want to quit.
“Or you get sick — we pushed it so hard earlier this year, we were touring with Rob Thomas, and every single day was ’show, promo/press during the day, show that night,’ and I lost my voice and got swine flu. And the doctor was like, ‘Look, I’ve dealt with a lot of you artists. I’ve had Kanye in here, I’ve had R. Kelly, I’ve had all these different people come through my office. …If you don’t slow down, your body will shut you down completely.’ And so, if you’re collapsing onstage, I don’t care how much money [you have] or how much you love your ‘Little Monsters,’ you gotta take care of your health first. For anybody. For us. I mean, we’ve had to slow down.
“My hat goes off to her. Nobody works harder than Lady Gaga. Nobody. She is unbelievable. I don’t know how she sleeps, or when or if. But I know people who work with her, and they’re like, ‘She is the most dedicated, committed, hardworking person around.’”

“And, surprisingly, I’m listening more to Lady Gaga. When she started her whole thing, I didn’t get it at all. I listened to her because I have a 9-year-old who downloads his own music. So I was hearing the lyrics in her songs and I didn’t get it. And then I saw pictures of her and I didn’t get it. But I paid attention to her at the Grammys. She went on the piano with Elton John, and I could hear her voice and she’s extremely talented.”

“It’s refreshing to see someone who has so much guts. She actually is a student of fashion design, and has a style all her own. I just finished the video with her, and it was so much fun — not to play it safe, just to go with something, and take it as far as you want.”

“I think a lot of what Lady Gaga wears is really cool. I’m not knocking Gaga in any way, because I’m actually a fan of hers. I don’t know because we’ve never spoken, but when I look at her, I get the vision of Leigh Bowery. I mean, everybody’s inspired by something. Do I think it’s over the top at all? I enjoy it because it’s something kind of different. It’s something new to look at. It’s going to be hard for her to keep up with that, but who knows?”

I’ve discovered Lady Gaga. She is a really significant talent. I was probably swayed by the disco versions of her songs. But then I came across an online thing with her just sitting on the piano and singing. Holy guacamole, man, she has a fantastic voice.

Elton John (on Gaga being picked to do James Bond theme)
“I’m really pleased that Lady GaGa is up for the theme tune.”
“She’s fantastic and it would be amazing to do a duet.”
“I love her, she’s absolutely amazing. We’ve become friends. What I like about the Gaga most is that she’s amazingly polite and respectful to everyone around her,” Elton John told The Mirror.
He added: “What I loved most about John Lennon is that he was like that. He once gave my mum a lift to the airport and came to my agent’s wedding.”
”The GaGa is like that. But the greatest thing about her is that she manages to let everyone think they know everything about her but no-one knows anything.”

“I love Lady Gaga. She would have fit right in at Disco 2000. A lot of people don’t understand what she’s doing, but she is a satire of a pop star. She is making fun of it, and at the same time, she’s going to go out and get everything she can by doing it. We saw the whole fame thing collapsing. We wanted to grab it quick, while there was something left to grab, because we saw it all coming down.”

“I am a fan. I think she’s amazingly talented, I think that her look is an integral part of her as an artist. But for us as an audience it’s what’s beyond that is the more fundamental part for me, it’s more about the songs that you’re still hearing everywhere all the time, and its amazing.”
"She’s like a meteor that just came from outer space and landed on the pop landscape or pop/dance landscape. And just… there was dust in everyone’s face. I think it’s amazing. She’s largely responsible — along with others who have brought dance to the kind of mainstream or pop arena in the states. She’s incredibly talented. She’s an absolute force to be reckoned with and I’m a great admirer."

"Phenomenal talent. Extremely proud [to work with her]. She's definitely that good. She knows what she's doing. She knows exactly what she wants people to think and say.

"She's a classic, all-around entertainer. A global star."

“I thought that was very admirable,” Halford said. “Madonna went a little bit in the activist vein, but she did that later on in her career. What you’re finding in Lady Gaga, I feel, is a microcosm of the speed of life we’re living in now. Things happen so quickly. She took off like a rocket. [Interscope Chairman] Jimmy Iovine put the whole label behind her and wrote the checks for those multimillion-dollar videos because he has this incredible foresight, and it was absolutely the right move. She’s incredible and provocative and I admire her as the person she is and all the great things she does.”
“I don’t know if she’s got really bad eyesight or if it was just another moment,” Halford said. “But I love that she believes all people are beautiful, which they are. How dare you call somebody ugly. That’s just abhorrent to me. She sends this message out to her fans and the world that’s really positive and I just wish her a long life, which is going to be difficult in today’s speed-of-light culture.”

There’s a section that she does [in her show] — just at the piano and that voice is right on. It’s on pitch and it’s strong."
