Lady Gaga a Man? Hermaphrodite? Urban Legend?
![]() |
Move over Jamie Lee Curtis, Ciara, and Megan Fox. Glam queen Lady Gaga (real name Stefani Joanne Germanotta) has now joined the ranks of female celebrities reputed to be "hermaphrodites."
The rumor, which had been simmering for months, burst out big-time this past week after a YouTube video was posted showing a little "something extra" peeking out from under her miniskirt during a June 2009 performance in Glastonbury, England. The quality of the video is too poor to tell precisely what that something is.
The video was soon followed by a quote attributed to the singer in which, supposedly, she proudly declared her intersexuality: "It's not something that I'm ashamed of, just isn't something that I go around telling everyone. Yes. I have both male and female genitalia, but I consider myself a female. It's just a little bit of a penis and really doesn't interfere much with my life."
Lady Gaga's manager dismissed both the rumor and the quote in a terse statement to ABC News, to wit: "This is completely ridiculous."
What is a hermaphrodite?
Hermaphroditism (from Hermaphroditus, son of the Greek gods Hermes and Aphrodite; Hermaphroditus was so loved by the nymph Salmacis that she prayed they could be united as one person and literally got her wish) is an all-but-obsolete medical term (clinicians now prefer intersex) for a set of conditions characterized mainly by genitalia which are either "ambiguous" (i.e., not clearly male or female) or at odds with the subject's chromosomal gender. Depending on the specific symptoms, hermaphroditism / intersexuality may be the result of a genetic anomaly or hormonal excess or deficiency during gestation. It has been estimated that as many as 1 in 2,000 children born in the United States are diagnosed with ambiguous external genitalia, of whom a very small percentage undergo "sex reassignment" surgery in infancy.

From what I’ve seen of her, she does and says outrageous things for more attention. She’s batsh*t crazy, but man does she have some pipes on her! I love her music, but like most performers, I don’t care for her out of the studio.
DISGUSTING !!!!!!
“Yes. I have both male and female genitalia, but I consider myself a female. It’s just a little bit of a penis “
There’s about as much wrong with being born intersex as there is being born with one ear. It’s a birth defect, a small error in the incredibly complex process of creating a new human being. If a person with both sets of organs grew to adulthood and still had such a healthy attitude toward the condition, I would applaud that attitude. Lady GaGa was born a drama queen, though, not intersexed.
Same old story. The rumors about Richard Gere and Rod Stewart get started by some insecure jealous dudes, and then the same losers startt rumors about hot babes (the kind that snub them).
Grow up losers…
I see panties, not Mr. Winky…
She’s hot, regardless!
Thats really disgusting. But she did a really good job covering it up LOL. I wonder how she looked as a boy….
Look shes individually beautiful and unique (in some ways lol) she’s actually like the only person ive seen step out and be herself & her clothes which scream “art”. her voice is phenomenal and thats all that matters
SMH at people who say thier “discusted”…?!
Seriosulyi dont feel “dscusted” i feel sorry for the poor girl
it would be so damn hard to live with that.
even if all of them were hermaphrodites…. what difference would it make and who cares anyway…. they’re still people, still human….
uh who cares?
In December of 2008 she told everyone sh was a hermaphrodite. You guys are wasting your time this is old news. She performed at a show called Tranny shack LIVE before she was the Diva she is today. Get over it let her use her talent no matter if she is a boy girl both or gay lesbian does it really effect how you listen to her music?
I love her work, regardless. Who cares?! She’s a beautiful thang’! (:
Shes the new version of Madonna, That was ment to be seen, I would not be suprised if it was a FAKE WILLY .what ever ………shes geting everyone talking just like Madonna did !!!!!!!!!!!
megan fox is bisexual and shes still hot.
I think the point is that she uses her sexuality to sell records – she may be a talented singer but the songs she chooses (or is told) to sing are woefully average. As we all know sex sells, and if this story turns out to be true then the people who bought it will probabaly feel somewhat cheated.
umm.. its hard to tell. coz whenver i see her with swimsuit or 2 piece or bikini, i dont see any bump. specially when she spread her legs when she performs lol
well, i don’t think shes a guy i mean she doesn’t really look like one, compared to jefree star, u can just see it in him. but lady gaga, shes the best singer. she doesnt have a guy voice, man legs, she has boobs, not that big but they’re still there lol. and im pretty sure thats not all surgery, cuz that much sugery would really kill her. all though she kind of has a weird nose lol but i do too and it doesnt mean shes a guy or i am lol, but yeah…just u guys shouldnt worry about it. i love jeffree star hes kool. and i still listen to his music and everyone knows that he got surgery on his face and stuff and wears pink weave, and has pink eyebrows drawn on by sharpee. but u kno hes a guy cuz what girl has the name “jeffree”? soo… if u think lady gaga’s a man then oh well still give her credit. shes talented!
Eh, disgusted? Disgusted about what? Lady Gaga is still an awesome singer -_-. It would be interesting if she was intersexual, though I don’t think she is.
Lady gaga is still bangable!
she is weird and i like her
no matter if she is a boy/girl
or half rabbit
i’ll still do her
Lady GaGa is not a man, it’s a stupid pathetic rumour thats going around, find out the truth before you post stupid stuff like this… its actually pathetic, show’s you have nothing better to do.
iv seen the evidence. she is a man. still would tho. push it to the side. lol
Hermaphrodite doesn’t come from Hermes (who isn’t the god of male sexuality either) and Aphrodite, it comes from their son Hermaphroditus. (whose name is their names combined) A nymph fell in love with Hermaphroditus but he rejected her, so she ‘ambushed’ him one day and embraced him tightly, she then called out to the Gods that they should never part, in a classic ‘wish-gone-wrong’ way the Gods actually merged them into the same body, hence hermaphrodite.
Mythological fact-check much appreciated! Thank you.
Look, imagine if that was you? Wuld you want millions of people chattin bout u in a bad way? NO you wud not! there is millions of people with defects! just forget bout it and get on wiv life!!!!!!!people are not diffrent bcoz they hav a defect!!!!
I heard shes actually old greg? any confirmation on that?
Haha to all the people who said she is hot. She has an annoying voice too.
i dont think its really anyones business she is doing fine living her life as she is so i dont really care whats going on below the belt.
i wish she was a woman
hell yeah lets party girl
she has boobs tampons and a female voice dum4ss.
took her a while to prove her vocal
personally, I think people to need to STOP judging people by what they look like or by silly littles things about them that count for nothing >_>
I mean, that ’suicide’ performance? Pfft…
What about James Blunts jump from a cliff in ‘You’re Beautiful’? Of course, he was portratying feelings from the story he was telling…But SO WAS LADY GAGA…And James never got no public shock over it…Did he? Because I don’t recall…
Who cares if she is a she-male or whatever you call it?
Honestly…You…People…Are so old-fashioned…
It’s like picking on some kid at school just because they have a mole…Or Even red hair…
Just because people are different, doesn’t give you the right to judge them wrongly…
And by the way…Ever heard of a thing called ’sarcasm’?
Lot’s of people obviously havn’t….lol
lady Gaga rocks, whatever sex she is xP
i knew “it” was a man before all this started,u can just tell straight away with his/hers facial features.now it has a willy,its a man…fact!!!
rumors ab ambigous male genitalia? is Lady Gaga hermaphrodite? Is Lady Gaga sister to Asja hermaphrodite ( true born italian hermaphrodite )?
No matter we love Lady Gaga
SERIOUSS OR NOTT????????????????????????? IM A BITT CONFUSEDD…SHE STILL ROCKSS THOUGH
Lady GaGa isn’t a man, any transsexual woman can tell you this by looking at her features in envy, above all to have those awesome hips she does she would’ve had to start taken hormones at around age 10
i think it would be interseting ig she was…it just shows that shes an actual person and not some piece of plastic. people should judge the quality of her work instead of being disgusted and dissapointed! shes probably better looking than you anyways so i just say stop hating!
LADY GAGA ’s NOT A HERMA SHE IS A TRUE BORN GIRL SHE’ S NOT SISTER TO ASJA HERMAPHRODITE REAL TRUE BORN HERMA
that is just the grosest thing ever
It doesnt make her a guy….shes a girl…her parents named her a girl name and just cos she apparently has a guy part doesnt mean anything..everything else is girl so yeahh… ¬_¬ its like nothing compared to somethings..
she is so not a man
leave her alone
Ewwwwwwwww…!!!! I dont tink so that she is a man she like a ugly duckling
why shouuld we care if she has a penis?? she is still a person,, and all those who think it is disgusting,, get over yourselfs,,

Grow up losers…” LMAO hot babe?! We’re talking about Lady Gaga. I guess (s)he’s hot if you are into transsexuals? Never heard of the other rumors, I thought it was obvious they’re men. Douchebag!
Can’t believe this??? All along i thought she was a goat now you say she is human?
OMW, i bet all of you think i’m a man also. I am a member of Annunaki and we don’t love David Icke cause he is exposing us to you mortal beings. Mwahahaha!!!!
She is the man.

The way she walks, moves and dances – her voice, everything about her screams transgender.
And good on her if she is… so what? The worst bit is how in denial people are as if it’s something disgusting and offensive.
To disgusted and other morons… I am more offended by your inadequate mental capacity than I am about Gaga’s gentalia/lack thereof/her sexual orientation or even the statements attributed to her. WTF! Just think before you display your ignorance online!!!!
lady gaga is a he she????????
just because theres stupid rumours going around that SHE is a “man” it dont mean there true.. you wouldnt like it if that was you soo what if she has it makes 3 somes easier dont it? i think we should get over it theres loads of people like it, its just because shes famous!! for all you now you could of been a hermaphrodite and your mum or dad had it cut off think about it its out of order LEAVE HER ALONE!!! LOVEYOUGAGA XXXXXX =]=]=]=] <3
People need to stop saying stuff like this about miss, gaga,, what if it is truee… so what… yeh she might have a little bit extra but does it matter, it has never stopeed her in the past so whty should it now ??

hermaphrodite have both a vagina and a penis in human beings this is impossible so You could safely say with 100% reliability NO. Do I think she has a penis no I watch her videos thats impossible with scant close she wears. Do I think she did have a penis and got a operation no I think she is 100% female. Do i think people are just jealous of her and make up damaging rumors YES. Do I think she really cares no.
Also give me a picture of you with ADOBE PHOTOSHOP I’ll stick a penis on your head
I suspect it is just a rumor. Before it was really hard to get a rumor started before the days of the internet. Now you have to realize that it is so easy to do. They are fun so that is why so many people start blogging about it because so many of us want to believe the more outrageous ones are true. Gives spice to life and something to talk or type about. That is why people gossip. However, you have to realize that most of these things are false. Any more if I here a juicy piece of gossip it doesn’t even suprise even if it is true. So many people do behind the door things it just to be old after awhile. However I highly doubt that Lady Gaga is a guy or guy like.
To anyone mentioning ″her″ lack of a penis in a video… it’s called editing. Look it up.
why is she ok with this?!!!!!
add me on facebook
Hannah Valyou-Spucches
She Cool And Funy
Guys u shouldn’t be mean to her it’s just like being homophobic there’s nothing wrong with her even if she dose have a dick we should all just forget about it and know her for her rly rly gd singin . Who rly gives if she dose or nt Its just the same as some one wid …. Umm an extra finger or toe or summin .!!!!!!!
ok,personally what does it matter if she has both parts. if she does so what leave her alone and let her be happy. her music is good, her style is way diff i think that thats great but i mean if there was a normal not celb person that had both parts then it wouldnt be on the web or you tube.so i think that people are just judging other people and so what if she may be gay.
Regardless of whether she’s a hermie, transgendered, or anything else, if she has two sets of functioning sexual organs, it is erotic to me and it should be equally erotic for anyone who isn’t a complete homophobe. She’s the best of both worlds all the way around. If someone is a complete homophobe, they need to wake up and open up.
How would you like to be attacked or ridiculed because you were black, trans, intersex or gay? The comments posted on here are on exactly the same level as racism or homophobia, both of which are socially unacceptable. This is because they attack people for what they are and are hate based. The nasty comments and terrible grammar betray the intelligence of the many of the posters on this forum
Lady gaga was born a man and had a sex change. The operation went wrong and they left a bit of penis behind. This is not a rumor, it is fact.
lady gaga is a man no doubt about it
OMG its funny how many idiots there are on the internet. People try to act smart face to face, but when they’re anonymous they show their TRUE selves. I want you all to look at yourselves in the mirror and i bet you aren’t HALF as beautiful as she is!!! SHE IS NOT A MAN, NEVER has been!! Get REAL. Before you start talking sh*t about her, I’d like you all to shove IT.
BTW, her new songs “Dance in the Dark” , “Monster” and “Telephone” are the shiznit. LOVE YOU STEFANII<3333 ♥
lady gaga is a strong and beautiful intelligent woman who really isnt afraid to be herself. those of you who are “disgusted” by her so-called situation absolutely shock me(hence the name)! this supposed birth defect doesnt change the way i feel about her, so why should it change the way YOU feel about her? shes a worldwide phenomenon! and you people go around disgracing her like this. lady gaga obviously isnt ashamed of this.
Lady G is a gr8 artist and if u f heads cant c that,dont blog her.If u had a 6th toe, would you go around saying that?no!I think she should b proud with who she is and she shouldnt change a thing!
xoxo bindz
wow thats disgiting lady gaga is lady man man!!i knew it my mommy told me when i turned 6 today
WHO DA MAN?
Who cares if she is a hermy! that would make her cooler. stfu its not gross its niot her fault.
Damn i new dhat i would do her if i was lesbian & a guy only when she really looks pretty thought otherwise i lyk her sytle & swagga…c[=
Lady gaga cannot be a man when it says she used to listen to the toy thing when whe was a little “girl” doesnt that say it shes a woman. If she was a man she would have said she was truely one not some rumor shes obvs only kidden when she says she does have one just leave gaga alone.
aye leave lady gaga alone she is absolutely gorgeous and who cares if she has one tiny penis?? she seems cool with it and so am i, she can easily just get it removed by surgery no big of a deal so leave her the heck alone man!!
i dont believe… this !
it doesnt matter because she is cool
its a man wit boobs.
GROSS
I’d still hit it.
thats sad but….my cousin owes me money
I mean, she admitted that she’s a hemaphrodite so I would imagine that she is. Who would make something up like that? I read that 1 in every 2000 children are born with both parts and no one makes a huge deal about them, so what’s the problem? People just wanna pick on her cuz she’s different, but that’s bs cuz different is good. What would the world be if everyone was exactly alike?…oh yeah, hollywood! Give the girl a break, her music is fantastic.
i think she is a men i dnt like her 1 bit. uhmm she will not come out with the truth that she dose hve a boy part . I THINK SHE SCARED OF IF SHE DOSE TELL THE HOLE WORLD WILL FIND OUT.THEN THERE WILL NOT BE NO MORE LADY GAGA LOL. THIS IS TRUE I DNT LIKE HER NO BODY DOES N IF THET DO THERE GNG TO STOP BE CUZ SHE ANIT TELLIN THA TRUTH ….!!!!!!!: ) : )
: ( HOPE U CAN FIND A MEN LOL SRRY NO BODY WANTS U BECUZ U IZ A MEN BYE …………………LOSER
I really don’t give a freak if Lady GaGa is a man. These are stupid rumors flying around the freakin internet. She is my favorite singer, and I will still love her if she is indeed a he.
But for now I think everyone should layoff and wait for Lady GaGa to say the truth. I still don’t really understand why it’s important though.
im not a hermephrodite i love making music so cn you guys please stop spreading it thanks i love all my gaga fans!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
honestly who cares if she’s a guy, she still sings great, isn’t that what matters?
oh I forgot! What is ‘taken b!tches’ saying? I can’t read crap.
