Lady GaGa has claimed that she is still friends with Kanye West.

The duo were supposed to collaborate on the 'Fame Kills' tour, but cancelled the concerts at the beginning of this month. However, GaGa decided to perform by herself.

Speaking on radio station Sirius XM, GaGa said: "I didn't drop Kanye - Kanye and I are friends. We're still friends. When you're friends with somebody, you can make difficult decisions, and we made a very difficult decision.

"It was hard on both of us. When we were talking I said, 'Even though this isn't happening right now, I'm going to still go out on the road'. And he said, 'Great, I support you'. And he's been very supportive."

GaGa added that she was looking forward to performing for her fans.

"I'm playing [to] just as many people in each city that I would have played on 'Fame Kills', but the ticket price is much lower," she joked. "The show is just as expensive... I'm doing what I always do, which is, I go bankrupt.

"My fans are so amazing and so loyal. They're not normal top 40 radio fans, they're like crazy punk rock fans. And they have got me tattooed all over them, and they come with lightning bolts and wigs and they're throwing glitter and they're fainting all over the place.

"They're the coolest kids in the world... I want them to come see a brilliant, amazing, life-changing show."
