Lady Gaga, the famous “Abracadabra” singer, received the innovator award at the iHeartRadio Awards on Monday night and appreciated the recognition.
However, she admitted she wasn’t sure what to make of winning an award for her entire career at just 38, calling it a “hard thing to get my head around.”
She said, “On the one hand, I feel like I’ve been doing this forever, and on the other hand, I know I’m just getting started,” she said while on stage accepting her award. “So even though the world might consider a woman in her late 30s old for a pop star, which is insane, I promise that I’m just getting warmed up.”
Lady Gaga paused her address to express her gratitude to those who have influenced her, citing her “fiercely brilliant” grandmothers who “reinvented their destinies with nothing but strength, dreams, and determination.”
She credited significant performers, such as Madonna, Carole King, and her late partner Tony Bennett.
Because they “taught me bravery before the world was ready to listen,” she also expressed gratitude to the LGBTQ+ community.
