Amidst of all these flashing lights I pray the fame won’t take my life…

So, we went to Born This Way Ball last thursday, and even though I prefer Fame Monster Ball, this was just pure… magic. She’s truly something special, Lady Gaga.

Being at her show made me think about pretty much everything. I’m not gonna bring it all up here, but most importantly, it made me realize, once again, how much this woman means to me.

Some of you may have noticed, that I wear a bolt-shaped necklace everyday. Or ratherly, I never take it off. What some of you may not know, is that’s it’s got Lady GaGa engraved on it. I got it back in 2009, and I haven’t taken it off ever since. Only one time, when the original plastic chain broke. But I quickly replaced it with a silverchain, and now it has remained there.  Why is it exactly? Well. Probably, because I somewhat owe my life to her. When everything was at it’s darkest “so-to-speak” it was her, and her music, that kept me going. She’s inspired me so much in life, she’s done so much for me with her music. And by carrying her bolt around my neck, makes sure that whenever I feel unsure I just need to touch the bolt, take a deep breath and move on. Because somehow, I’m carrying her, and all she stands for, with me. If you get what I mean.

I still remember the day I fell for her. It was night, in either late 2008 or early 2009, and a re-run of Jimmy Kimmel was airing in Sweden. And he all of a sudden announced this “Lady Gaga” to perform her song “Just Dance”. And I was pretty much like, dafuq. And when I saw her I was even more like “What kind of sorcery is this!?” But I also, immediatley… fell for her. And I’ve loved her deeply ever since.

Little monster for life. Seriously.
