"I talk about myself in the third person all the time. I don't live my life in the way someone like you does. I live my life completely serving only my work and my fans"
About this Quote
The sting is in “someone like you.” It draws a line between ordinary life and pop life, not to brag so much as to justify the bargain she’s made. She’s telling the listener: your model of authenticity doesn’t apply. This is a preemptive defense against the standard celebrity cross-examination - are you real, are you normal, are you okay - by swapping the terms. The real isn’t the offstage person; the real is the job.
“Completely serving only my work and my fans” is devotional language with a transactional edge. Fans are framed as dependents and deities at once, the ones she must “serve” and the ones who validate her self-erasure. It’s also a sly bit of mythmaking: if she’s exhausting herself, it’s not indulgence, it’s duty. In the Gaga era of maximal performance art and relentless public scrutiny, that posture becomes a shield and a promise: you may not get access to Stephanie, but you will get the spectacle, delivered like an offering.
