House Of Gucci star Lady Gaga has said she spent nine months living with an Italian accent because she wanted to speak from a place that was “visceral” and “true”.

The actress and singer, 35, plays Patrizia Reggiani in Sir Ridley Scott’s crime drama, a socialite who had her fashion dynasty heir husband Maurizio Gucci murdered in a case that gripped Italy.
