Lady Gaga was born this way. During an appearance on Hot Ones with Sean Evans on Thursday, Feb. 13, the "Abracadabra" singer confirmed that she did write her 2011 song "Born This Way" pretty quickly. Discussing her music, Evans, tkage, brought up that Gaga, 38, once likened writing "Born This Way" to "immaculate conception," saying she wrote it in "10 f---ing minutes." Gaga was aghast, "Oh my God, I said that?" she said before confirming that she did in fact pen it that fast. "For 'Born This Way' and a lot of my songs, I hear it pretty quickly and then I just have to follow it." "To me when I'm making music, I say that I'm listening, so it's a feeling of receiving, which is probably why I made that really dumb comment about myself." The 14-time Grammy winner's song "Born This Way" would go on to be certified platinum six times, immediately reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and was iTunes' fastest-selling single of all time, as per MTV News with over one million downloads in five days. She also explained how she finds and develops a good hook, reflecting on another quote of hers: "without a good chorus, who really gives a f---?"

Gaga, who just took home a Grammy Award on Feb. 2 for best pop duo/group performance with Bruno Mars for "Die with a Smile," is releasing her album Mayhem next month. "The album started as me facing my fear of returning to the pop music my earliest fans loved," Gaga said, as per a press release shared with PEOPLE. She described her upcoming music as different than her previous work, and this album is akin to "reassembling a shattered mirror: even if you can’t put the pieces back together perfectly, you can create something beautiful and whole in its own new way.” Rather, Mayhem is about "chaos and transformation, celebrating music’s power to unite, provoke, and heal." Mayhem drops on Friday, March 7.
