Lady Gaga: ‘Epic Sense of Powerlessness’ Is ‘Something That We All Share’ Amid the Pandemic

Singer-songwriter 🎤Lady Gaga is sharing how many feel during the coronavirus pandemic and the importance of looking after one’s mental health.

Speaking with USA TODAY, Gaga shared that she believes so many people feel “an epic sense of powerlessness” amid the coronavirus pandemic.

“We’ve encountered a super virus that is epic in its disastrous proportions. So that feeling of powerlessness in some ways is, I think, something that we all share,” she said.

However, the “Chromatica” singer noted that the pandemic has “really mobilized me to work on how I can help the world.”

She has partnered with the International WELL Building Institute’s “WELL Health-Safety Rating,” which verifies “that a building or space has taken the necessary steps to prioritize the health and safety of their staff, visitors and other stakeholders,” according to the Business Wire.

The singer said she hopes the campaign will be “one of the movements that is part of building back our global community and building back our local communities,” and hopes it will show others we “can get back to quote-unquote normalcy, but we must do it safely.”

Gaga also touched on mental health, telling USA Today how it has been “really important to me that I continue to move my body. It’s really important for my mental health.”
