An Interview With Lady Gaga's Male Alter Ego

Now it turns out that the pictures — taken by Nick Knight, who also shot Lady-Gaga-as-Lady-Gaga for the September issue of Vanity Fair, and styled by frequent Gaga collaborator Nicola Formichetti — were for the cover of Vogue Hommes Japan. (Formichetti is the magazine’s fashion director.) And inside, Lady-Gaga-as-Jo-Calderone gives an interview:

WHERE ARE YOU FROM?
Palermo, Sicily

HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE WHAT YOU DO / YOUR OCCUPATION?
Mechanic for my dad’s business. This is the first time I’ve had my picture taken.

WHEN DID YOU DISCOVER YOU WANTED TO TO THIS?
Well, I always helped my dad at work, since I was a kid. I thought it would be fun to have my picture taken.

WHAT ARE YOUR AMBITIONS?
I’d love to own my own car shop, I have a bunch of my own ‘muscle’ cars. Maybe if I take some more pictures I can afford it.

WHAT IS YOUR RELATIONSHIP TO LADY GAGA?
I met her at a shoot Nick Knight was doing. She’s fuckin beautiful, and funny, and interesting. I was a little nervous for Nick to start shooting. She said, “Don’t be baby, you were born this way.” I took her out after. The rest is private 😉

Lady-Gaga-as-Jo-Calderone just implied he hooked up with Lady-Gaga-as-Lady-Gaga. We can’t help but wonder what Stefani Germanotta’s take on all this is.
