Lady GaGa equates music to sex

Lady GaGa says writing music is like having "mind-blowing, irresponsible, condomless sex".

The 'Just Dance' singer has compared penning tracks to dating different men, adding she finds creating hit records a very sexual experience.

She explained: "Writing a record is like dating a few men at once. You take them to the same restaurants to see if they measure up, and at some point you decide who you like best. When you make music or write or create, it's really your job to have mind-blowing, irresponsible, condomless sex with whatever idea it is you're writing about at the time."

The 22-year-old singer has also revealed she would rather spend time in her bedroom than attend a showbiz party.

She added to Blender magazine: "In the evening I'll probably stay in and listen to a new song I have recorded. I like to roll around in bed with my songs and figure out what feels good."

Lady GaGa - who used to work as a burlesque dancer in New York - recently promised fans her upcoming 23-date 'Fame Ball' tour will assault their senses.

She said: "This is going to be the ultimate creative orgasm for me because I'm ready to move on. I'm not restricted to a certain structure for my show anymore. No limitations. I'm free.

"This is so different than anything you've seen from me in the past year."

The tour opens on March 12 at San Diego House of Blues.
