Lady Gaga has thanked her fellow actors after being nominated for a Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Award, Music News reports.
The 35-year-old singer was nominated for Best Actress for her performance in House of Gucci Wednesday.
According to the report, she responded to the recognition on Instagram while also acknowledging her co-star Jared Leto’s nomination for Best Supporting Actor.
“I have long dreamed of being an actress and studied from a young age because I was passionate and committed to storytelling through art,” the Bad Romance singer captioned a bare-faced selfie.
“To be recognized by fellow actors touches my heart and (it) is deeply meaningful that I would be included in this artistic community of brave imaginative humans,” the Grammy winner continued.
Gaga, whose real name is Stefani Germanotta, congratulated her fellow nominees and performers while saying she was “very emotional”.
