Lady Gaga has been named Billboard 's Woman of the Year, which is slightly ironic, considering she almost gave up her career as a pop star at the tail end of 2014. Gaga stated "It speaks volumes to me that I'm being recognized as Woman of the Year, This is the year I did what I wanted instead of trying to keep up with what I thought everyone else wanted from me." Gaga has recently come out saying in interviews and talks that she had almost quit the music industry due to the pressures of other people. She adds "every up and down of my career was worth it?it has led me to epiphanies. We can't create without epiphanies."
