Lady Gaga Wants Marisa Tomei to Play Her on the Big Screen

Lady Gaga is nothing if not forward-thinking in her fashion choices and her big dreams -- and the same goes with who would play her in a film about her life. When talking to SiriusXM last week, the singer told the satellite radio broadcaster's 'The Morning Mashup' that if a movie was made about her life, she would want Marisa Tomei of 'My Cousin Vinny' fame to play her.

“I’ve always been a big fan of Rosario Dawson. Oh, you know what? I would have Marisa Tomei play me. I’m such a Marisa Tomei fan,” Gaga says. Gaga said that her friends joke around and call her "Marisa" when she gets angry. “My New York accent just flies out of my body and I start smacking my gum,” Gaga adds.

Gaga's transition from New York City kid to the world's biggest pop star is certainly an inspirational story, and one that would draw viewers to the multiplex. At least Gaga thinks so! "I think at some point, yes. I think I'm sort of destined for that screen at some point," she says.
