Lady Gaga says being on stage is 'like having sex' with her fans.
The 'Born This Way' singer feels a huge connection with her followers ' who she calls 'Little Monsters' ' and that connection is intensified to orgasmic levels when she is performing.
She said: "Sometimes, being on stage is like having sex with my fans. They're the only people on the planet who, in an instant, can make me just lose it."
The 24-year-old star ' real name Stefani Germanotta ' also says she can relate to her fans because she sees herself in them.
She revealed in an interview with Vogue magazine: "I see myself in them. I was this really bad, rebellious misfit of a person - I still am - sneaking out, going to clubs, drugs, alcohol, older men, younger men. You imagine it, I did it. I was just a bad kid. And I look at them, and every show there's a little more eyeliner, a little more freedom, and a little more 'I don't give a f**k about the bullies at my school.' "
