She’s been accused of being overtly sexual with her minuscule outfits and controversial videos.

But Lady Gaga admitted she didn’t even enjoy sex until two years ago after revealing losing her virginity was a ‘absolutely terrible experience’.

The New Yorker, 24, concedes she wasn’t ready at the time, but is thankful she has always practised safe sex.

With the issue close to her heart, Gaga is currently promoting her M.A.C. Viva Glam lipstick – with proceeds going towards HIV and AIDS charities.

She tells the new issue of Grazia magazine: ‘I didn’t lose my virginity until I was 17. But I have to say even then I
wasn’t ready and it was an absolutely terrible experience. It wasn’t
good at all.

‘I have never not had safe sex, I have always asked a guy to
be tested and to use protection, which was always my rule. Otherwise
you’re playing Russian Roulette.’

Lady Gaga, real name Stefani Germanotta, admits her early sexual experiences left her finding the act unpleasant, but she has begun to enjoy love-making with boyfriend Luc Carl, 32.

Rebirth: Lady Gaga claims she spent three days in her egg-like vessel before being ‘reborn’ at the Grammys last month

She originally dated him when she was 19 before splitting, but the pair reconciled last June.

She explained: ‘I never actually enjoyed sex until two years ago. It was a proper
monogamous relationship in which I felt free enough to trust and I had
enough self love.

‘Sex is the ultimate expression of vulnerability and
for me it was important to know that it was a proper relationship so it
was sex as a source of love and nothing else.’

Two weeks ago, Lady Gaga made a show-stopping entrance to the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles carried along the red carpet in a egg-like vessel.

And now the singer is claiming she spent three days inside it before emerging on stage during her performance at the awards bash.

She said: ‘I have an idea or an idea comes and I just go with it, like my vessel at
The Grammys. That was so perfect, the whole idea of my next album and
single, Born This Way and then the vessel… or the egg as everyone kept
calling it.’

When asked by Grazia how long she ‘incubated’ in the vessel, Gaga said: ‘Three days, honestly. I stayed in the vessel for three days.

‘I can’t
talk about it. I don’t want my fans to think about copying, let’s just
say it was important as part of my rebirth to stay in there for three
days.’

In the interview, Gaga also talked about her ongoing battle with tiredness – a side effect of her diagnosed condition of Lupus.

She said: ‘I get incredibly tired but I don’t know whether that is because of lupus
in my bloodstream or because I’ve been working flat out for so long
now.

‘I’m much more responsible now. I give myself a break and allow
myself recovery time. I sleep a lot, I can sleep anywhere and I will
sleep for hours and hours.

‘I have my family around me more than anyone
knows and they take care of me. I feel very good right now.’
