Lady Gaga has been out of the spotlight for a while now and it’s not hard to see why. The “Born This Way” singer issued a statement that she was suffering from a labral tear in February, which stopped her touring. However, recently Lady Gaga says that her injury was far more severe than a tear.
“I had broken my hip. Nobody knew and I haven’t even told the fans yet,” she says. “But when we got all the MRIs finished before I went to surgery there were giant craters, a hole in my hip the size of a quarter, and the cartilage was just hanging out the other side of my hip. I had a tear on the inside of my joint and a huge breakage. The surgeon told me that if I had done another show I might have needed a full hip replacement. I would have been out at least a year, maybe longer.”
For the star (who hasn’t stopped performing for more than two weeks since she was 14 years old), the injury was very tough to deal with. Not only did she have to stop touring, but she also had to be wheeled around in a wheelchair! However, Lady Gaga makes the best of a bad situation and says that the injury gives her time to examine and be more introspective of her upcoming album, ‘ARTPOP,’ which is set to be released on November 11.
