Lady Gaga: Dorchester Hotel Dame

Getting ready to start her week, Lady Gaga stepped out of the Dorchester Hotel in London, England this morning (September 17).

The “Just Dance” songstress donned a Vivienne Westwood top as she greeted fans and press en route to complete her daily duties.

In a recent interview, Gaga confessed that her overall mood is the most influential factor on her art life in general.

“When I’m happy, I’m at my best. When I’m confident and happy, I’m my most eccentric, because I’m celebrating fashion and life. If you see me dressed a little bit more plain, or maybe a lot of leather, it means I’m probably sad — or shoegazing.”

She also noted, “I haven’t completely given up drinking, but I’ve given it up a lot. And it’s made me a much happier person. I’m happy all the time.”

“When I have a constant flow of creativity that seems to be executed well — as of a few months ago, I feel that I’ve started to create some really great things. So when I’m feeling good about my work, I feel happy. When I’m feeling not good about my work, I don’t feel happy — I feel miserable and sad.”
