 Lady Gaga says she wishes treatment of women in the music industry would change when asked about Britney Spears during a media event in Milan for her upcoming film, House of Gucci. Britney Spears won back her freedom on Friday after 13 years under a conservatorship that controlled how she spent her money when she performed, who she had access to a house and what medications she should take in House of Gucci, a film directed by Ridley Scott. Lady Gaga, whose first lead movie role in A Star Is Born was critically acclaimed, will play Parizia Reginia, who served 18 years in an Italian prison for orchestrating the 1995 murder in Milan of her husband Mauricio Gucci, played by Adam Driver. You know, I've been watching this for a long time and the way that she was treated in this business was really wrong. And the way that women are treated in the music industry is something that I wish would change. I think that she will forever be an inspiration to women and to people all over the world. I watched her as a young girl and I still watch her now. She's wildly talented. She is incredibly inspirational. And I'm just so happy that we get to celebrate today that she gets to embark on a new phase of her life. And she authored her freedom. She worked hard for this moment and I hope she feels that. As an Italian-American woman, when I was in America watching what happened in Italy, I was heartbroken seeing how COVID hit this country. And then coming here to perform and to film this movie, I was blown away by the bravery and the courage of all the healthcare workers and the frontline workers. They made it possible for us to film and also for us to dream. Notified about fresh news updates.
