Lady Gaga Discusses Attending School With Nicky Hilton

DJ Ron Slomowicz of About.com spoke with Lady Gaga about the pop singer attending the Sacred Heart School, the same private school in Manhattan Nicky and Paris Hilton went to. Asked whether the sisters had an effect on her, Lady Gaga responded, “They’re very pretty, and very clean. Very, very clean. You know, I never saw Paris, she was older than me, and it’s funny that the press always write that I went to school with the Hilton sisters, but I actually only went with Nicky. Paris, I believe, left and went to Dwight. But, you know, it’s impressive to be that perfect all the time, these girls. I was always a weird girl in school, who did theater and came to school with lots of red lipstick on or my hair perfectly curled, or whatever I was doing to get attention. It’s funny as it’s almost like they were there to make me aware, because so much of what I do now is that I try to twist my world into the commercial community. So I guess they’ve been quite an influence on me. Not them in particular, but the idea of the self-proclaimed artist.” Check out the entire Q&A here.
