This Year Has Been A Challenge Says Hard Working Lady Gaga

Lady Gaga admitted that this year has been a challenge and she has had a difficult time dealing with her problems.

According to The Mirror, the Born This Way star said that the last year was so difficult that she often felt as though she was “in chains.”

Lady Gaga took to her blog to tell the world about her struggles.

"The past year was a challenge, and I'm so happy to have my spirit back. I felt in chains at times.

"Whether it be the record label disagreeing with me on single choices, or directors who could only create an idea of 'Gaga' or what I've 'done before' and weren't able to move forward," she wrote.

The singer said that she faced other problems aside from her music.

"Then there were all the personal moments. Betrayed by lifelong friends, mentors I've had for years suddenly taking advantage of me, and a massive struggle with my body image. I've grown and left most of these things behind, the monsters of fame are very real,” said the 26 year old.

The singer said that Madonna also made this year difficult by constantly telling the world that Gaga ripped off her Eighties hit Express Yourself when she penned Born This Way.

"And there was also, of course, the incessant dragging of the most important single of my career in dead-beaten-horse-mud," she wrote.

Gaga is currently under fire from animal rights group Peta after she wore a Hermes fur jacket earlier this week.

The singer said in the past that she would never wear fur but has obviously had a change of heart.

Lady Gaga took to her Twitter account to respond to the abuse from animal rights activists.

"For those press and such who are writing about whether or not my fur is actually real, please don't forget to credit the designer Hermes. Thank You," she wrote.
