Fans Are Concerned Over Lady Gaga’s ‘Swollen’ Face In New Interview: ‘Never Looked Puffier’

Lady Gaga‘s recent video interview with beauty influencer Nikkie de Jager, also known as NikkieTutorials, is making some fans do a double take.

As the Grammy winner, 38, discussed her upcoming album, LG7, and her personal life with the YouTuber, 30, last week, some fans on X (previously known as Twitter) expressed concern about her facial features appearing “rounder” or “puffier” than usual.

This scrutiny, as reported by the U.S. Sun, has sparked discussions among the House of Gucci star’s followers online.

As per the publication, one fan wrote on X, after seeing Gaga’s new interview: “Is it me or her face looks a bit swollen.” Another added: “[Lady Gaga’s] never looked puffier” as one other replied in a recent thread: “1st I didn’t recognize that she was Lady gaga, her face is a little bit swollen.”

In the clip, the “Bad Romance” hitmaker donned a chic black sleeveless top with a high neckline and wore her signature platinum blonde tresses down, parted in the center and styled into subtle, effortless loose waves. As for her makeup look, the Haus Labs mogul went for black liner, rosy blush on her high cheekbones and a pink pout.

“Listen, I’m working as fast as I can, but I will say that I’m feeling deeply inspired right now,” Gaga said in the video, regarding her highly anticipated follow-up to 2020’s record, Chromatica. She went on: “I’m so excited for everything I have to show all the fans and I’m deeply grateful for everybody’s excitement [about] my creativity.”

In other news, the “Paparazzi” singer also rang in her 38th trip around the sun this week, sharing a new selfie with her 56.4 million Instagram followers. The Star is Born alum uploaded a photo of herself sitting in a car, donning an edgy leather jacket. Gaga showed off newly bleached brows and went for a more minimal makeup look, highlighting her natural beauty.

“Today has been so special—I can’t remember a time I was so happy on my bday,” she captioned the snap. “I am in love with my best friend, my family and friends are loving and kind and healthy.”

She continued: “I feel like my heart is bursting with gratitude for my own health and MUSIC—I am writing some of my best music in as long as I can remember our movie Joker 2: Folie à Deux is coming out soon.”

The “Applause” artist then thanked her fanbase, noting: “Thank you thank you thank you for loving me the way you do and for having such a real love for my songs—I’ve been writing pop songs since I was a little girl I can’t believe I still get to do what I love. This year will be an important and meaningful year for us I know.” Gaga concluded her message, signing off: “Music changes people lives im so honored I get to be a part of that in this life.”
