In an exclusive interview with Empire Magazine, Lady Gaga detailed the unique vocal methodology she employed for her role in "Joker: Folie à Deux".
Gaga explained, “For me, there’s plenty of bum notes, actually, from Lee. I’m a trained singer, right? So even my breathing was different when I sang as Lee.
"When I breathe to sing on stage, I have this very controlled way to make sure that I’m on pitch and it’s sustained at the right rhythm and amount of time, but Lee would never know how to do any of that.
"So it’s like removing the technicality of the whole thing, removing my perceived art-form from it all and completely being inside of who she is.”
By stepping away from her usual controlled and precise singing techniques, Gaga immersed herself fully into her character, Lee, delivering a raw and authentic performance.
Fans can look forward to experiencing this fresh and unfiltered portrayal when the film is released.
