Lady Gaga has been maintaining a slightly lower public profile in the past month. Lower is relative when discussing a worldwide phenomenon.But with a new Cher duet being released this month ("The Greatest Thing") and "Born This Way Ball" preparations, she's a busy Lady. She couldn't even manage a showing at the VMAs, sending Jo Calderone in her wake.
This week, Lady Gaga's 19-year-old sister spoke to PEOPLE about the eccentric star. Fresh out of high school, Natali Germanotta has avoided the celebrity life chosen by her sister, making only a brief appearance in the music video for the hit song "Telephone."
Natali encourages her older sister's public image. She explains, "She asked me, 'Should I dress really conservative and look not like myself, or should I do it over-the-top and freak everybody out?,'" she reminisces about helping Gaga prepare for the her graduation. "And I was like, 'The latter, definitely the latter.'" (According to PEOPLE, she showed up in a "rhinestone-encrusted bodysuit and beekeeper headgear.")
While being the sister of a megastar in the 21st century must have its challenges, Natali isn't complaining. She uses her outlandish older sister to settle family disputes about her own wardrobe choices. She explained that when her father would complain about an outfit, she'd retort, "Well, at least I'm not walking out on the street with red pasties."
He'd agree with a simple: "Good point."
