Lady GaGa 'gave up marriage for music'

Lady GaGa has admitted that she gave up on the idea of getting married in favour of a career in the music industry.

The singer revealed that she ended her previous relationship because her ex-boyfriend wanted her to be a housewife.

"I've only ever really been in love once. He didn't want me to do this job. He wanted me to stay at home, so I left," she told the News Of The World.

"It broke my heart but also made me realise music is my first love."

The star added that there were benefits to focusing on your career rather than having a relationship.

"My music's never going to roll over in bed one morning and tell me it doesn't love me anymore. I have a problem with rejection," she said.

Lady GaGa is currently number one with her new single 'Poker Face'.
