Lady Gaga quit drugs by 20

The Poker face singer kicked the habit to focus on her career

Lady Gaga had stopped taking drugs and didn't have time for men by the time she was 20, her friend has revealed.

Despite her claims to a life of wild partying and casual sex, the 'Bad Romance' singer's best pal DJ Lady Starlight claims she was solely focused on her music when she first met her at her 20th birthday party.

Starlight said in an interview: "It was obvious even then that Gaga was going to be famous. She was incredibly focused on exactly what she wanted to do. I know she's talked about doing lots of drugs but by the time we met she had stopped all that. She didn't even have time for boyfriends."

Lady Starlight, 33, also revealed she and Lady Gaga, 23, always experimented with fashion and tried to create the wildest stage outfits they could dream up - though they would often not last through a show.

She added: "We were very creative but the outfits were often stuck together with glue. Sometimes they fell apart when we were on stage."

Among Gaga's more outrageous comments have been her comparison between making music and having "mind-blowing, irresponsible, condomless sex" and that despite being bisexual she separates love and sex and prefers "male sexuality" .

Lady Starlight also added that her friends initially shocked parents are now fully supportive of her career.

"Christian Louboutin The United States has stepped up as the most significant donor and has arguably been more effective than the Pakistani government in the relief and rescue operation, experts say. More than half the food provided to flood victims has been distributed by USAID, and Americans have delivered more than $90 million dollars in aid to Pakistan, according to the State Department. The World Bank has pledged $900 million to help rebuild Pakistan. Christian Louboutin Pumps Even before the floods, Congress last year passed $7.5 billion in aid to Pakistan, part of an effort to undercut the insurgent groups that easily cross between Pakistan and Afghanistan. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton and U.N. Secretary- General Ban Ki Moon are likely to press the international community to contribute more to the relief effort when the U.N.'s General Assembly meets today. The number of people suffering from the flooding exceeds the total of those affected by the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, the 2005 Kashmir earthquake and the 2010 Haiti earthquake, according to the United Nations. Christian Louboutin ShoesOxfam America has raised less than $500,000 from private donors for flood relief, compared with $17 million it raised in the two weeks after the tsunami. WedgesAshraf Qazi, chairman of the Council for Pakistan Relations, said a slack effort by the international community in Pakistan ""could potentially cause a very serious social upheaval."" ""It's been the stated policy of the U.S. government that we want to win the hearts and minds of Pakistanis as anti-Americanism has run rampant there,"" Qazi said. ""If nothing else, there's a huge opportunity here."" "
