Let's be honest - it's not too much of a leap to assume that Lady Gaga's new single 'Perfect Illusion' is coming from a personal place.

Considering she recently split with her fiancé, actor Taylor Kinney, people have put two and two together and have taken the song - which contains lyrics like "Mistaken for love, it wasn't love / It was a perfect illusion" - as a post-break-up revenge anthem by the singer.

However, that's not the case according to Gaga herself, who told SiriusXM: "I love Taylor so, so much and this song is not a hit out against Taylor. He's my best friend. This song is just about... I'm sure not only feelings that I've had but that he's had, that my friends have had, my sister has in her relationship... it's a record about all of us. And I would never use my song or want to use the public to hurt anyone that I love so much."

Now that that's been cleared up, on with your day.
