It can't be easy being Lady Gaga. You have to contend with constant press speculation about your health and the chilling spectre of Penio, the Bulgarian Big Brother contestant who's announced plans to have a sex-change operation in order to look like her. So Lost in Showbiz is delighted to learn that the singer apparently has guidance from the hereafter to fall back on. "She's been saying that she's in touch with the spirit of Andy Warhol," a source recently claimed. "She sits and talks to him for hours, as if he's in the room with her. She says he tells her what to wear."
It's not that Lost in Showbiz doesn't believe in the spirit world: it once saw Toby Anstis being possessed by the spirit of his dead grandmother on Living TV's I'm Famous and Frightened and that's all the proof it needs. And yet, a note of caution must be struck. Given Lady Gaga's appearance on the cover of Japanese Men's Vogue wearing a bikini made from raw meat and what can only be described as a kind of steak beret, there seems the distinct possibility that she's got her psychic wires crossed: she's made the classic mistake of confusing the disembodied spirit voice of Andy Warhol with that of the late Thomas Altham, founder of Althams Catering Butchers of Morecambe.
