A former friend of Lady Gaga has penned a book about the star before fame, making claims about the star's drug use and suggesting she has had plastic surgery.
The revealing memoir by ex-pal Brendan Jay Sullian, 'Rivington Was Ours: Lady Gaga, The Lower East Side and the Prime of Our Lives', will include his claim that the Poker Face musician had a habit of doing 'bags and bags' of cocaine whilst doing her make-up in her apartment.
Sullivan has alleged he witnessed the star brushing a mysterious white powder off her carpet and then rubbing into her gums. Upon questioning her, he recieved the answer 'It's mint. I wish it was coke. I used to do bags and bags of it.'
The star has previously opened up about her drug use in the past, particularly whilst suffering with depression as a struggling singer, claiming 'I only did it alone. That was my one rule.'
Gaga stated 'I would go back to my apartment every day and I would just sit there. It was quiet and it was lonely. It was like the drug was my friend.'

Drug use isn't the only thing Gaga's pal goes onto expose. Sullivan hints heavily at the singer's plastic surgery, despite her telling Harper's Bazaar in 2011 'I have never had plastic surgery'.
Sullivan claims that on a night out the star announced that she was getting a nose job, stating “It’s holding me back. Do you think I’d be songwriting this long if I looked like the girls you date? … It’s slipping away from me.”
He also alleges that the star confessed to wanting a 'titty lift' but did not go onto confirm whether she went through with the prodedures.
