"I'm not only cheering them on, I want them to know that my heart is in it with them. And I want them all to feel really happy," she added.

Her expression of admiration for Swift, 34, in particular, came months after the "I Can Do It with a Broken Heart" singer came to Gaga's defense after she posted a video on TikTok to shut down rumors that she was pregnant. She used lyrics from a recent Swift song to help.

"Not pregnant — just down bad cryin at the gym," was written over the video, which featured the "Diamond Heart" singer getting her eyebrows bleached. She borrowed words from Swift's The Tortured Poets Departmenttrack "Down Bad."

Swift expressed her feelings about the A Star Is Born actress having to address speculation about her body in the comments of the video.

"Can we all agree that it's invasive & irresponsible to comment on a woman's body," the "Who's Afraid of Little Old Me?" singer wrote in Gaga's TikTok comments. "Gaga doesn't owe anyone an explanation & neither does any woman."
