American singer Lady Gaga has slammed ageism in the pop music industry.
The 38-year-old singer averred that it was insane to consider women in their late 30s “old” for a pop star.
She stated this while receiving the Innovator Award at the 2025 iHeartRadio Music Awards at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on Monday, March 17, 2025.
I don’t know totally how to think about this because winning an award honouring my entire career at 38 years old is a hard thing to get my head around,” Gaga said.
The world might consider a woman in her late 30’s old for a pop star, which is insane, but I promise you I’m just getting warmed up,” she added.
