The ‘Die With a Smile’ singer highlighted her emotional connection to fellow female artists in the industry.

Lady Gaga is showing heartfelt support for her fellow pop icons, including Taylor Swift, Kesha, Charli XCX, Chappell Roan, and Billie Eilish. 

In a new interview with Vogue, published on Thursday, September 5, the singer shared her deep admiration for these women, expressing just how much their success means to her. 

"I mean, I really love them," Gaga said, getting emotional. "I go on the internet and, like, cry. And I love Taylor Swift too. And Kesha. I watch it all, and I’m like: Yup. Go! Just Go."

She further explained, "I’m not only cheering them on, I want them to know that my heart is in it with them. And I want them all to feel really happy." 

The emotional moment comes as Lady Gaga is in the midst of promoting Joker: Folie à Deux at the Venice International Film Festival, where she also gave a special mention to Chappell Roan, calling herself a "huge" fan of the "Hot to Go!" singer.

In addition to her acting commitments, Gaga confirmed to Vogue that her seventh studio album will be released in February, with inspiration drawn from her fiancé, Michael Polansky.
