Lady Gaga wore Michael Jackson's clothes while working on ARTPOP
Lady Gaga wore Michael Jackson's clothes while working on her latest album and is convinced she could 'feel' the King Of Pop through his garments.
The Just Dance hitmaker bought a 55-strong collection of items from Jackson's wardrobe at an auction in Los Angeles last year (12) and vowed to archive and care for the garments for future generations of fans.
The star never planned to wear his touring clothes, but admits she
often dons the Thriller hitmaker's more casual items and even wore
some of his sweaters while in the final stages of making her latest
record, ARTPOP.
In an interview with DJ Ryan Seacrest, she says, "I recently bought
a bunch of Michael Jackson's clothes - his actual clothes from his
tours. The idea was to keep them for him and I actually don't
really want to wear them. They're Michael's clothes.
"(But) there's a couple of pieces I have to the side and I have his
sweaters that I put on - I wear that when we're mixing and finish
up a record. I feel something from the clothing and I gave one of
the sweaters to his godson and he really loved that. I just feel
like through clothes you can feel things."
Lady Gaga rush-released her new single Applause worldwide on Monday
(12Aug13) after the material leaked online, while her third album
ARTPOP will follow on 11 November (13).
