Lady Gaga once failed to get the part for a LensCrafters commercial
The stage and screen is Gaga’s life pursuit. “I always wanted to be an actor. Much more than I wanted to be a singer,” she explains. Despite doing all the legwork from a young age, a problem persisted. “I just always wanted to be an actress, but I was really terrible at auditioning.”Along the way, she auditioned for “a very spicy” LensCrafters commercial. Spoiler alert, she didn’t get the part. Though this cloud had a silver lining. “I learned something that day,” she tells Kimmel.
“I learned all about rejection and how to take it like a queen.”. The thrill of it wasn’t lost on her Italian-American family. Gaga strategically sat-down her father when she broke the Pacino news. “My father’s had heart issues his whole life. And I was like, this is going to put him back in the hospital,” she quips.has polarized cinema-goers, though Gaga shines on the screen. Italian food, specifically pizza and espresso, had something to do with her performance.
