"Extra's" Terri Seymour caught up with Lady Gaga to talk about her new music video, "Alejandro."

Before the release of her video, Lady Gaga told Terri, "I'm shooting this video with Steven Klein. I'm so excited, but like all of my videos, I don't know what it's going to look like until it's finished."

The pop star is constantly on the go -- so how does she keep it up? "I'm really not that tired. Of course, I get tired... it's my passion for my fans," she said. "It's their messages, they send me these beautiful videos... I must have thousands of beautifully laminated books with stickers, photos, sketches, poetry, they call me Mother Monster now."

Her Ladyship also reveals that although she sings about her "Poker Face," she "sucks" at playing poker and that her inspiration for the song came from a party. "One of the inspirations from Poker Face was these parties I used to hold on Sundays at my friend's house in Brooklyn, and all the boys would get together and play Texas Hold 'Em and I'd make margaritas and spaghetti for everybody. Believe it or not I'm an excellent cook, so no, I suck at poker," she said.
