Drugs make an appearance

It has been reported that Lady Gaga has – at times – partaken in drug-taking activities. Way back when she was still known as Stefani Germanotta, she apparently began experimenting with drugs while performing at neo-burlesque shows.

In an interview with Vanity Fair magazine, Gaga caused controversy when she admitted to occasionally taking cocaine. The American public still seem to be shocked when a high-profile music star admits to drug use, and although some would applaud her honesty, there was still a public outcry – many felt younger girls looking up to Gaga as a role model would also be inspired to start a recreational drug habit.

However, the music industry – in fact all media and creative industries – are rife with drug use, from top level management right to the front line. Although one shouldn’t suggest applauding Gaga for her honesty, perhaps we shouldn’t be as surprised as the media make out we are.
