Lady Gaga news revealed how the "Cheek To Cheek" singer "crashed" after working for six years straight.
The pop star narrated to CBS News correspondent Anthony Mason the details of how she got burned out.
"I felt like people were holding me to a pretty high standard," Lady Gaga told the news reporter. "Everybody's hooting and hollering because, you know, I didn't sell 20 million records this time, which I did with my first album. And you know, it's not easy to replicate that. And you just -- I don't have a formula."
The 28-year-old singer explained how all the expectations led to her burnout: "I have to make sure everything was okay. Because it wasn't."
The music star told CBS News: "You know, it's one thing to put a train on the tracks. But it's another thing to keep the train on the tracks. You can't just let a train out on the tracks and just run it out; it'll -- I crashed."
"I just didn't even want to make music any more," Lady Gaga confessed.
Earlier Lady Gaga news reported that the "Born This Way" singer has slammed the music industry for allegedly "controlling" her. In a report from Entertainment Wise, the singer even called her pop days "robotic".
She explained how she felt that her voice has been "controlled" too much in the past, and that the amount of auto-tuning in her music has made her sound like a robot.
''Since 'The Fame', 'The Fame Monster' and 'Born This Way', they've been auto-tuning it more, or changing the timbre. They take the vibrato out so you sound like a robot," Lady Gaga said in the news reported by Entertainment Wise.
The controversial musician admitted: ''They really control you especially in the beginning."
"Although it was still my songs, and I still had a lot to say about the production, the vocal was something that they really, really wanted to control," Lady Gaga confessed.
The hit singer and fashion icon expressed: ''So my vocal presence has been kind of the smallest presence about me for a long time. So everything else becomes the focal point.''
