In a new interview with Variety, Lady Gaga revealed that she would like to star on Broadway in a musical that she has written.

"I don't know, maybe when I write my first musical. I just think that there's so many amazing musicals but I love writing music and I love musical theatre and I know a lot about musical theatre and a lot about writing music. So I think I would really enjoy the process of creating a musical. I've thought about it for a really long time," she revealed.

She went on to share that her love of musicals come from her admiration of Elton John and his work in musical theatre.
