Lady Gaga on getting older: 'I want to explode as I go into my 30s'

'Born This Way' icon Lady Gaga has revealed that she isn't afraid of ageing and is feeling great about leaving her 20s behind her in a few months. 

During an interview with Billboard, she admitted that she has a new-found peace and confidence about turning 30 and thinks it'll be a life-defining decade:

"My birthday is in March, so these are the last moments of my 20s. I already mourned that in a way, and now I’m really excited about showing girls, and even men, what it can mean to be a woman in her 30s. Why is it that we’re disposing of people once they pass that mark? It’s suddenly, ‘You’re an old woman.’ I’m not f---ing old. I’m more sexual and powerful and intelligent and on my shit than I’ve ever been. I’ve come a long way through a lot of heartache and pain, but none of it made me damaged goods. It made me a fighter."

She went onto add that she hopes people will be inspired by her attitude: "I want to show women they don’t need to try to keep up with the 19-year-olds and the 21-year-olds in order to have a hit. Women in music, they feel like they need to f---ing sell everything to be a star. It’s so sad. I want to explode as I go into my 30s."
