What Lady Gaga Says She Did Wrong On The Sopranos

Posted by Mittie Cheatwood on Sunday, May 26, 2024

Given her Parsippany roots, Lady Gaga is basically New Jersey royalty. So it feels especially appropriate that Lady Gaga was part of another New Jersey institution –- "The Sopranos."

"The Sopranos," which aired from 1999-2007 on HBO, follows the life and crimes of Tony Soprano and the Soprano crime family. It has become one of the most critically acclaimed shows of all time (via Rotten Tomatoes). And although most would be over the moon to have played even a small role on a television show of such epic proportions, such is not the case for Lady Gaga (via New York Post).

Lady Gaga appears in an episode of the show's 3rd season titled "The Telltale Moozadell", and although it was only a small performance, Gaga feels as though she could've done better.

"I didn't know how to listen in a scene," she would later recall. "I was supposed to laugh, and it was sort of like, cue, laugh," she said. "I see it and I go, 'Oh, that's not a real laugh!'"

In the years since, Lady Gaga has grown as an actress, as proven by her appearances in "A Star Is Born" and "House of Gucci."

"The nuance and being specific as an actor is something that can grow over time," Gaga shared, "If you're willing to listen and really hear the other actor that you're working with."
