Washington - Lady Gaga has urged women to stop worrying about their weight, claiming that they don’t need to look like a supermodel if they want to be successful. Gaga told her fans that people who achieve great things do not have to look like ‘‘supermodels’’, Contactmusic reported. The 27-year-old pop superstar, who has suffered with fluctuating weight throughout her career and has been criticised for being both too thin and overweight, insisted that people should concentrated on what they’re going to do with their lives rather than on what they look like.
