Lady Gaga says she became pregnant at the age of 19 after being assaulted by a music promoter early in her career, a tragedy that she credits for causing her to have a “complete psychotic break.”
Lady Gaga, whose hits include “Born This Way” and “Shallow,” said she had an “absolute psychotic break” after being raped years ago. “I wasn’t the same person for a couple of years,” she admitted.
Since being admitted to the hospital with chronic pain, Gaga was diagnosed with PTSD, she added.
The Grammy and Oscar winner said the promoter had her “locked up” in a studio and threatened to burn her music unless she removed her clothing. The singer declined to name the producer, stating that she “never wants to face that guy again.”
