Gaga says she is proud of her size and doesn’t think people should care what size she is: “Proud at any size, because the inside is what really counts. Plus, it’s all how you pose! Just ask the supermodels!” She adds that the criticism is constant: “all day long every day, so what if I got a belly sometimes, sometimes I don’t. There’s people starving in the world.”
Jessica’s weight has changed regularly and she admits she has been affected by her body critics: “There’s no way you’re not going to be affected by the ugly things people say about you. It’s very hurtful. It definitely brings up a lot of your own insecurities. It takes a great family and wonderful friends – and love definitely helps, too – to get through it.”
