Lady Gaga on addiction: 'I lily pad from substance to substance'

Pop icon Lady Gaga has opened up about her past struggles with addiction and confessed that she latches onto things very easily because she has an addictive personality.

The New York Post quotes Gaga as saying: "I've been addicted to various things since I was young. I lily pad from substance to substance. I can't get further with one so I go to another." She added: "I smoked 15 to 20 marijuana cigarettes a day. I would get high all day and perform onstage at night. I would never go onstage high."

The 'Applause' sensation also recently told Attitude magazine that she slipped back into old habits while recovering from her hip injury and explained that smoking marijuana was the only thing that numbed the pain she felt: 

“I was smoking fifteen joints a day. It was a habit that eventually occurred when the pain got so bad with the hip. I was just numbing, numbing, numbing myself then sleeping it off, then getting on stage, killing it in pain, then getting off and smoking, smoking, smoking, not knowing what the pain was."
