Pop diva Lady Gaga has sparked more controversy saying that she stays slim by following a "drunk diet".
The 'Paparazzi' hitmaker, who has always maintained a slim figure, insisted she would never cut out alcohol in a bid to lose weight.
The 24-year-old singer admitted that her slender frame is down to exercise and her boyfriend Luc Carl's "drunk diet", which saw him lose 40 pounds while still partying hard, reported Contactmusic.
"I am on the drunk diet. I live my life as I want to, and creatively. I like to drink whiskey and stuff while I am working," she said.
Even though she is drunk, Gaga never misses out on her work-out and yoga sessions.
"The deal is, I've got to work out every day, and I work out hungover if I am hungover. And it's about the cross-training and keeping yourself inspired. I have to say, I do a ton of yoga," said Gaga.
Carl is currently working on a book entitled 'The Drunk Diet', about his non-traditional weight loss method.
Did you think that Lady Gaga was the number one biggest concert draw in the US of A in 2010? Well, you may in in for a surprise then.
Apparently Lady Gaga needs to step it up because she was fourth in the popularity ranking.
So who beat out Lady Gaga? In second and third place were AC/DC and U2 as they both grossed over $150 million, states Hollyscoop.
And in first was Bon Jovi, breaking the $200 million mark.

| Is Lady GaGa Engaged? |
OMG… first it was Katy Perry, then wannabe kook Rihanna (maybe) who decided to get hitched, and now it looks like the queen of bonkers herself, Lady GaGa might also be swanning down the aisle.
One source told Heatworld: "Lady GaGa has told everyone she plans to get married. She has said she wants a fairytale wedding in a castle. We finish the European leg in London just before Christmas and the timing is perfect for the wedding."
If the reports are to believed, it looks like GaGa will wed her boyfriend Luc Carl in a super exciting ceremony, and is even hoping to have celebrity burlesque dancer Dita Von Teese jump out of their wedding cake.
Do you think she'll tie the knot?
Lady Gaga is "enormously disappointed" the US government has failed to repeal the military's homophobic 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' legislation.
The eccentric singer - who is a staunch supporter of gay rights - is stunned the policy was not revoked during a vote in the US Senate yesterday (21.09.10). The decision means gay service members will continue to be forced to keep quiet about their sexuality.
Writing on her official website, she said: "Today was an enormous disappointment, for myself, and for many young American people. I will keep fighting, I will not give up.
Instead, it has been customary now for antiquated procedures and partisan politics to take precedence over debate, America's needs, and today over the needs of US troops.
"I am passionate about the rights of the LGBT Community (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) and SLDN (Service Members Legal Defence Network) and I will continue to activate as many young people as I can, and encourage them to get politically involved in their future."
The 'Alejandro' hitmaker also criticised the decision to not let American citizens watch the debate.
She explained: "Legislative procedure is being abused to stop public business, public debates, from happening while America is watching. There was a debate today, we just didn't get to watch it.
"Instead, it has been customary now for antiquated procedures and partisan politics to take precedence over debate, America's needs, and today over the needs of US troops."
Senate Republicans blocked the Democrat bill to lift the controversial policy with a 56-43 vote.
Pop star Lady Gaga is facing the wrath of bosses at an underwear company after she allegedly failed to return four "priceless" items of lingerie.
The "Poker face" hitmaker was reportedly sent seven undergarments from Rigby and Peller, which supplies underwear to British monarch Queen Elizabeth II, Gwyneth Paltrow and Sophie Dahl, among others.
Celebrifi.com reports that Gaga was sent the exclusive items on loan to wear in her next music video, but company bosses allege only three of the briefs were returned.
Executives at the company claim the underpants were prototypes for their 2010 autumn/winter collection unveiled at a fashion show May 3 and their loss could stall the production line.
"Obviously we were delighted that Lady Gaga wanted to use our new pieces in her next video, but we did stress we needed them back in plenty of time for our press show," said a spokesperson for the company.
"They are handmade, unique designs, simply priceless and not available anywhere in the world so we are really disappointed not to get them back for our major showcase of the year," the spokesperson added.
Gaga's spokesperson said, "We've nothing to say."
Pop star Lady Gaga's topless photo on the cover of Q magazine has been banned by several leading stores in the US.
The "Poker Face" hit maker walked out on the recent magazine photo shoot after bosses at the publication refused to let her strike a controversial pose in a desperate bid to address rumours she is a hermaphrodite, contactmusic.com reports.
Bosses at Q eventually rearranged the shoot and the final pictures show Gaga posing topless in just a pair of leather trousers.
But despite efforts to tone the images down, some stores across the US, including bookstore Borders, have refused to stock the publication unless it is placed in a sealed cover, according to QtheMusic.com
Popstar Lady Gaga stripped naked for a sexy new photoshoot with rapper Kanye West. In the candid new photographs taken by acclaimed photographer David LaChapelle, GaGa, real name Stefani Germanotta, is seen lying in the rapper’s arms with one hand covering her breast, as West stares zombie-like into the distance with a raging volcano behind.
Other photos show her standing on crutches over sleeping naked people, dressed in an android-esque two-piece with matching helmet and arms, reports the Daily Telegraph.
The series also shows her fallen from the wheelchair, on a mirrored floor in a doll-like pose, with pink afro hair surrounded by pink flowers and a blue sky.
Meanwhile the Poker Face hit maker is this year's most listened to artist online, according to a leading music site Last.fm. The company, that reviewed tracks from full-length albums which had been streamed by visitors on the site to come up with their top ten, said tracks from Gaga's album The Fame were played more than 18.5 million times by the site's 35 million-strong community.
The 23-year-old singer had her songs played six million times more than her nearest rivals The Killers.
Lady Gaga has admitted that she has no confidence when it comes to men and that she feared sex in the past.
The singer said that the songs in her new album ‘The Fame Monster’ is inspired by the time when she was experiencing a phobia of intimacy.
“Each song represents a different monster I have encountered on my travels; a fear of sex, a fear of alcohol, a fear of love, a fear of death, it goes on…” Contactmusic quoted her as telling MTV.
“I’m so proud of my new music but I feel during all this time – while my dad was having open heart surgery – it was a really difficult time for me personally and that is what this album is all about.
“I’m just really happy being single at the moment, working on my music and travelling. I think there is a time for that but it’s just not now for me. And anyway, I have no confidence when it comes to men,” she added.
She concluded: “Something that I have or fear is never being able to enjoy myself.”
