She was giving NOTHING away.
Lady Gaga is known for her unusual style and even stranger behaviour but her interview with BBC Breakfast on Friday certainly left us cringing for presenter Charlie Stayt.
Appearing on the breakfast show to discuss her new album ‘Joanne’, Lady Gaga seemed unimpressed when Charlie brought up the topic of the upcoming presidential election.

When asked about Republican candidate Donald Trump, Lady Gaga left Charlie feeling the tension when she answered with a very curt “I have nothing to say of him”.
Charlie, apparently a sucker for punishment, continued to ask the Perfect Illusion singer about Trump.
Asking “‘He claims he represents people who have been unrepresented, who haven’t had a voice?”, Gaga simply remains silent for one of the longest silences in interview HISTORY.
Finally, Gaga answers with a very vague “‘I think, what is most important is for us to try and decipher what is real and what is not. And what is honest and what is dishonest. And be accepting of those things and not operating from fear.”
Gaga does eventually confess that she thinks Hillary Clinton will “do a good job” but after so much tension in the interview, understandably fans online lost their shit.

Those specifically awkward parts can be seen here… And from the looks of things we certainly don’t envy Charlie!
