Lady Gaga’s privacy concerns are ‘ludicrous,’ former personal assistant alleges

Lady Gaga New Picture

Lady Gaga has no private parts.

A Long Island woman who claims the pop star owes her hundreds of thousands of dollars in overtime pay says the singer’s recent demands for privacy in their court battle are “ludicrous.”

Gaga “is probably the last person in the world to care about her ‘privacy,’ exposing herself in all manner of bizarre and intimate ways for the world to see every day,” lawyers for her former personal assistant, Jennifer O’Neill, argue in court papers filed in Manhattan federal court Friday.

The singer struts on stage in underwear and torn fishnets, was shown smoking pot at a show and writhed around nearly nude for star photographer Terry Richardson’s 2011 book, “Lady Gaga x Terry Richardson.”

The book shows Gaga topless, with only her hands covering her boobs, lying with her legs spread, exposing a hole in the crotch of her stockings, and with her breasts exposed while putting on her famed “meat dress.”

Yet Gaga, born Stefani Germanotta, is fighting a subpoena from O’Neill seeking Richardson’s unpublished photos, calling them “private and personal” in court papers.

O’Neill says the photos will show her toiling for Gaga, from her bedroom to backstage costume changes on her 2010 Monster Ball tour, during which a five-person team helped switch star’s outfit 17 times per performance. O’Neill’s image is not in the book.

“I was frequently at Ms. Germanotta’s side, often ready with coffee and/or water, from dawn to dawn,” O’Neill says in court papers. “I was glued to Ms. Germanotta to such an extent that at one point I was asked . . . to step back so that I would not be in the way during photo shoots.”

She is seeking $380,000 in unpaid overtime from the $75,000-a-year job. She says she served as Gaga’s alarm clock, helped in “ensuring the promptness of a towel following a shower” and was dragged everywhere the singer went, including her Upper West Side duplex, “stadiums, private jets, fine hotel suites, yachts, ferries, trains and tour buses.”

Gaga denies that O’Neill was on call at all times or that she helped in the Monster Ball costume changes. She has called the photos “irrelevant.”
