Tento pátek, tedy 11. 2. 2011 zveřejní Lady Gaga první stejnojmenný singl z chystané desky Born This Way. Původně měla píseň zaznít na předávání cen Grammy 13. 2. 2011, ale na Twitteru se zpěvačka nechala slyšet, že už nemůže dál čekat a zveřejní ho dříve.
Lady Gaga je autorkou písně a produkce se ujala spolu s Fernandem Garibayem a DJ White Shadowem. Sama zpěvačka odznačuje píseň jako hymnu homosexuální hrdosti. Gaga dokonce předem zveřejnila i slova k písni, která však vyvolala řadu spekulací. V roce 1975 vyšla totiž píseň I Was Born This Way od Valentina, která má velmi podobný text. Zpěvačka tak bude nejspíše čelit pomluvám z kopírování.
