Lady Gaga popped by The Gayle King Show to talk about "Born This Way," the accompanying video(s), and her new album — and the talk show host greeted her while still in her Spanx.

King noted that "Born This Way" is the first time she's ever heard the word "transgender" used in a song, and the two talked about Gaga's reasons for speaking to those who have been bullied.

"I really wanted to make a record that was unapologetic and quite literal and really to the point," Gaga said. She said she wanted to create a cultural, religious experience that doesn't dance around the issues with poetry or sex.
