After recently admitting to being addicted to cocaine, Lady Gaga has now made an even more shocking confession...

She used to lick the album sleeve of Green Day's 1994 'Dookie'. But not in a cleanliness, obsessive and freakish way like Jeremy Kyle (according to Richard Bacon) who once licked his mobile phone for fear of the germs (which doesn't make much sense to us) but because it was 'iconic' and she wanted to tasted the culture. Or something.

Talking about downloading music, she said:

"You know, you can download an MP3 but you cannot download a lifestyle. And the culture of music – the visual behind the music and the dream of my show and what I believe in about performance and pop music – that's what compels young people to buy the hard album, and eat it, and smell it, and taste it."

"I remember when I bought Green Day's 'Dookie', I just wanted to lick the pages from the booklet! That particular album, I mean, it is iconic."

Bit downloading an MP3 is so much cheaper than the 'lifestyle' alternative...
