"My fashion is about the urban woman in the year 3000, when there is a ton of pollution and we all need to protect our bodies and cover up, because the air outside will acidize our skin," the singer (shopping in London in April) has said of her eccentric ensembles. "I think about obscure, weird things and try to create a world around them."

Music's new princess of pop is eager to blaze her own fashion trail. "I don't feel like I look like the other perfect little pop singers," Gaga (performing in March in San Diego) told Rolling Stone. "I think I'm changing what people think is sexy."

"My grandmother is basically blind, but she can make out the lighter parts, like my skin and hair," the singer (performing in February in Germany) revealed to Rolling Stone. "She says, 'I can see you because you have no pants on.' So I'll continue to wear no pants so that my grandma can see me."

Don't expect to see the "Just Dance" hitmaker lounging around in sweatpants. "I make music and art and design all day long. Yes, I wash my face and go to sleep but when I wake up, I am always Lady Gaga," the singer (in Germany) has said.

"A girl's got to use what she's given, and I'm not going to make a guy drool the way a Britney video does," Gaga (in London) has said of her outlook on style. "I take it to extremes... It's meant to make guys think: 'I don't know if this is sexy or just weird.'"

"Gaga style does not equal kooky. I have a natural inclination for haute couture and avant-garde fashion," the singer (at Sunrise, Florida's Y100 Jingle Ball concert in December 2008) has said. "To me, this is not shocking."

"Well, yeah, I take my pants off, but does it matter if your pants are off if you've got 8-inch shoulder pads on, and a hood, and black lipstick and glasses with rocks on them?" the oft-pantless musician (at MTV Studios in NYC in August 2008) said.

Iconic

Now considered a fashion icon, Gaga is embracing her new status. "It's exciting for me," she recently told reporters in Seoul, South Korea. "A year and a half ago, when I first came out, people said I looked funny...It's great that now it's so mainstream."
