I’ll admit it, this story made me like Lady Gaga after too many months of being totally over her. When Gaga accepted her “Fashion Icon” award at the CFDA Awards on Monday night, she gave a little speech and told a funny story about Anna Wintour, the editor of Vogue. Anna is a big fan of Gaga – Gaga has performed at Vogue-sponsored events, been featured in a Vogue pictorial with Oprah, and this year, Gaga got her own Vogue cover. So, Gaga and Anna have the kind of professional friendship in which they could conceivably call or text each other. So when Anna found out that Gaga was receiving the “Fashion Icon” award, she texted Gaga. What happened next is great:
Lady Gaga should probably add Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour’s name to her contacts list. When the 25-year-old “Edge of Glory” singer appeared at the CFDA Fashion Awards on Monday, Gaga shared an embarrassing story involving the famed fashionista during her acceptance speech.
“I can’t believe I’m allowed in here. When I was told I won this award, Anna Wintour sent me a text message,” Gaga said, pausing for dramatic effect. “She text messages.”
After the crowd cheered, Gaga continued to recount her awkward conversation with Wintour. “So she sent me a text message, and it said, ‘We’re so excited to tell you you won the CFDA fashion icon award.’ And I actually thought it was Anna Treblin, who was one of my very close friends and [my stylist] Nicola’s assistant, who I go out and have drinks with all the time. I have a couple Annas in my phone, so my reply was, ‘Yes, bitch, we did it.'”
“Quite quickly I got a reply that said, ‘How lovely, and we will all be waiting to see what you will wear,” Gaga recalled. “And then I thought, ‘Well won’t you be helping me choose what I will wear?’ And then I said, ‘Oh! it’s Anna Wintour.'”

I would have loved to see Anna’s face when she read Gaga’s message. I bet she looked like she sucked a lemon. Or maybe she laughed. God knows.
By the way, have you heard about Eminem’s new single in which he disrespects Lady Gaga? The track is below – the lyrics about Gaga are “Tell Lady Gaga she can quit her job at the post office/ She’s already a male lady/ Wouldn’t f— her with her d—/ The verdict’s in.” Meh. I like Em, but that sounds like an easy one, I think. Oh, there’s also a Bieber reference too. Here’s the song (beware – it’s very NSFW):

I read Lady Glug-Glug made $400.05 giving oral sex at this event. Who paid the nickel? They all did!
That’s funny (and it’s true, everyone knows Anna Wintour is a beyotch).
Damn, I was hoping she had really called her a bitch (which she is) and not just some funny faux pas.
Actually, I’m surprised Anna didn’t give it to Blake.
(Anna needs to use a little lotion on those dry crinkle arms.)
So Eminem is still trash talking success females?
Does he ever get bored being jealous of girls?
Why doesn’t he trash talk to the successful men in the business?
Oh that’s right. He doesn’t want his little narrow ass beat.
LOL!! gaga is awesome
wouldn’t I just love seeing Anna in a meat dress, you betcha
em is turning into a rapping don rickles? wtf?
Could have gone my whole life without seeing that horrible outfit from behind. Ugh, she’s just gross. I really wish she’d go away already.
Gaga here, Gaga there, Gaga evrywhere.
I´m SO tired of her and all her crazy outfits, that become more and more ridiculous. Can´t walk without help, defintely can´t sit without a stack of pillows. What´s she trying to prove?
what hautie said
Gaga is starting to look like Sharon Stone.
She’s a man baby! I LOVED Eminem’s lyrics. In my opinion, he is right on the money with this chick, and I use the expression lightly
For a fashion supremo, Anna Wintour needs to realise that sagging flesh is not a good look.
God, if she dyed her hair brunette she’d probably pass for the decrepit and dead Wallis Simpson.
And seriously? What are these women anyway? The way I see it, some of the most hideous looking women micromanage the fashion world. Wintour is just Skeletor, her right hand woman is just unsightly. And Roitfeld, her French counterpart has to be the most non photogenic woman on this planet and yet, they are telling women or dictating rather, what is in fashion.
Then there the Queen of the Hideous, Lady GaGa. Initially she was supposedly about the music, but now, especially when her new album sounds like 80s eurotrash, her outfits are taking centre stage – to detract from the fact that her recent rounds of songs are rubbish and they will continue to be.
Please spare me.
Darn, I was hoping she called her a bitch for real. I cannot stand Anna Wintour!
If only Lady xerox’s music was at least as marginally interesting as her outfits – I despise her because you would think she’s the only female making music, what a mediocre narcissist – I will be overjoyed when she flames out and goes back to doing thirdrate burlesque in midtown manhatten clubs where she started – but Wintour is a b**** for ruining Vogue by turning it into Variety east.
This story is amazing. I can’t imagine Wintour’s face when she read that text message.
eminem’s schtick is getting old. hopefully he will be irrelevent soon.
…and anna might want to reconsider the sleeveless tops.
Anna Wintour is a bitch, what else is new?
And is it just me or did Lady Gaga’s boobs get bigger?
Love GaGa! I thought Eminem was over the whole making fun of celebs in songs thing. UGH
Love Wintour and Gaga.
Gaga is inspiring and seems like she is having a blast. I will NEVER tire of her. It must be so much fun for her to get dressed everyday. Long live Gaga and all the other crazy dressed people out there.
‘Shay’, the idea that only women that are totally beautiful and photogenic can dictate fashion is so stupid and really quite disgusting. Style has nothing to do with someones naturally given physical appearance.
And American Vogue does not suck. Grace Coddington does amazing work for it in every issue!
Anna Wintour looks smelly.
sooo tired of M&M and his idiocy.
Clear a path for Ol’ Sourface. Is that you, Death? No, it’s Death’s first cousin, Anna. And say ‘hi’ to the paterfamilias, he may be no god in Colchester, but he’s Sir Prince Nepotism–of the Vogue Nepotisms.
Doesn’t Eminem have some random family member kicking around to vilify? Wasn’t this slam book nonsense that helped to escort him out of the consumers consciousness for no mean amount of time? I heard the ex-wife is thinking about going with a caramel tone for the base, and adding dimension with honey highlights and mocha lowlights, and is considering losing a lot of length and some volume for a low-maintenance ‘do that frames her face, so…Get That Bitch! It’s Justfied!! Throw peroxide in her hair–whatever doesn’t bleach will blind. One of us, one of us!
My ankles are turning to mush just seeing those shoes.
well, if the Manolo fits… 😆
gaga does not have the ass she thinks she does; she really should keep it covered. oh, and she should stop trying to be interesting, too.
Lady Gaga’s outfit (and hair) actually looks like something Anna Wintour wore around 1990.
