LADY GaGa has opened up about her battle with bulimia.

In an interview with Vanity Fair magazine, the Telephone singer admits her demons sent her “completely mental”.

GaGa, 24, recalled how she was eating fried chicken on her bed when she received a call to meet a record executive in 30 minutes.

“I said, ‘I’ll be right there’. I got up, went to the bathroom, threw up, did a line of coke, went to the meeting,” she said.

GaGa also revealed that she’s still an “occasional” cocaine user.

She said she’s “terrified of heroin” and does “mostly cocaine”.

“I won’t lie; it’s occasional. And when I say occasional, I mean maybe a couple of times a year,” she said.

“I do not want my fans to ever emulate that or be that way. I don’t want my fans to think they have to be that way to be great. It’s in the past. It was a low point, and it led to disaster.

“I was completely mental and had just been through so much. I hit rock bottom, and it was enough to send a person over the edge. My mother knew the truth about that day, and she screamed so loud on the other end of the phone, I’ll never forget it.

“I cried. I told her I thought my life was over and I have no hope and I’ve worked so hard, and I knew I was good. What would I do now? And she said, ‘I’m gonna let you cry for a few more hours. And then after those few hours are up, you’re gonna stop crying, you’re gonna pick yourself up, you’re gonna go back to New York, and you’re gonna kick some a**.’”
