Shadowing-Übung: Lady Gaga's Emotional Speech on Surviving Sexual Assault and Mental Health | ELLE - Englisch Sprechen Lernen mit Video

I don't know if I'm working it right now.

It's hard to know what to say.

I wrote this speech and there's teleprompters and I got papers.

I don't know what to use.

And in truth, I was just trying to memorize Anita's speech

because it was so beautiful that you give me hope thank you Jennifer for

that beautiful introduction you're an inspiration to

so many thank you not only for everything you continually do for women

but for the force of nature you've been for

so many all over the world I think about me and my best friend who's here tonight right there

I've known her since I was four years old beautiful adopted woman from Korea

and how throughout high school we danced and we sang imitating Jennifer

imitating you while we strengthened our bond her name is Bo

and wearing white bandanas and hoop earrings draped over caramel colored hair you brought us

so much joy where are you you brought us so much joy on the train I thought about you

and how the fuck I was gonna get off that train.

She loved you so much, we even gave her the nickname, J-Bo.

No, for real.

Like we called her that all the time.

There is not a doubt in my mind that you will be loved forever as the powerhouse of a performer

and woman that you are.

Thank you for making so many memories for me and my friends that I will cherish forever in my heart.

Thank you so much.

I never in my wildest dreams thought that my life would become what it has,

but more so to be honored this evening purely for being a woman.

It's beyond what I could have imagined.

I guess I didn't see it happening in my lifetime.

I am immensely privileged to be in the company of so many powerful women who have changed so many people's lives.

I am so humbled to be standing hand in hand with every one of you today.

I spent a lot of time thinking about what I wanted to say tonight because of all of you,

because you inspire me.

How does one rise to such an occasion when maybe you don't feel that inside?

How does one accept where life has brought them and what it all means?

As I tried on dress

after dress today getting ready for this event one

tight corset after another one heel after another a diamond of feather thousands of beaded fabrics and the most

beautiful silks in the world.

To be honest, I felt sick to my stomach and I asked myself,

what does it really mean to be a woman in Hollywood?

We are not just objects to entertain the world.

We are not simply images to bring smiles or grimaces to people's faces.

We are not members of a giant beauty pageant meant to be pit against one another for the pleasures of the public.

We women in Hollywood, we are voices.

We have deep thoughts and ideas and beliefs and values about the world.

And we have the power to speak and be heard and fight back when we are silenced.

So after trying on 10 or so dresses,

with a sad feeling in my heart that all that would matter was what I wore to this red carpet,

I saw an oversized Marc Jacobs suit buried quietly in the corner.

I put it on to a resounding view of eyes glaring at me in confusion.

But the Redarte was so beautiful, one said.

But the Raph Simmons for Calvin Klein was so stunning on you, said another.

But what about the Brandon Maxwell?

What about the Dior?

Lots of questions.

They were all dresses.

This was an oversized men's suit made for a woman.

not a gown.

And then I began to cry.

In this suit, I felt like me today.

In this suit, I felt the truth of who I am well up in my gut.

And then wondering what I wanted to say tonight became very clear to me.

As a sexual assault survivor by someone in the entertainment industry,

As a woman who is still not brave enough to say his name,

as a woman who lives with chronic pain as a woman

who was conditioned at a very young age to listen to

what men told me to do I decided today I wanted to take the power back today I wear the pants

Today I wear the suit.

In an age when I can barely watch the news, aghast at the unjust men and some women,

quite frankly, that I see running this country,

I had a revelation that I had to be empowered to be myself today more than ever,

to resist the standards of Hollywood,

whatever that means, to resist the standards of dressing to impress,

but to use what really matters, my voice.

After I was assaulted, when I was 19, I changed forever.

Part of me shut down for many years.

I didn't tell anyone.

I avoided it myself and felt shame even still today,

standing in front of you.

I feel shame for what happened to me.

I still have days where I feel like it was my fault.

After I shared what happened to me with very powerful men in this industry, nobody helped me.

No one offered me guidance or a helping hand to lead me to a place where I felt justice.

They didn't even point me in the direction of the mental health assistance I was in dire need of.

Those men hid because they were afraid of losing their power.

And because they hid, I began to hide.

I hid for a long time.

Until I started to feel physical pain.

Then I had to go to the doctor.

Because I didn't know what was wrong with me.

And then I was diagnosed with PTSD and fibromyalgia,

which many people don't think is even real, and I don't even know what the fuck to say about that.

But I'll tell you what it is.

It's a syndrome

that is essentially a cyclone of many

different conditions depending on person inducing a stress-induced pain.

And I really wish my friend Lena Dunham was here tonight

because I think she could probably articulate this much better than me.

And I hope we can all agree that she's a remarkable woman.

Depression, anxiety, eating disorders, trauma.

100

These are just a few examples of the forces that can lead to this tornado of pain.

101

So what I would like to say in this room of powerful women

102

and men today is let's work together to beckon the world towards kindness towards kindness.

103

I'm fortunate enough now to have the resources to help me.

104

But for many the resources either don't exist or people don't have the ability to pay for or access them.

105

I want to see mental health become a global priority.

106

We might not be able

107

or we're not able actually to control all of the challenges and the tragedies that life throws our way.

108

But we can work together.

109

This room, and even wider,

110

can work together to heal each other.

111

And we can also try to find the strength in the best way

112

that we can to ask for help if we need it.

113

One in four people in the world suffer from mental illness.

114

300 million people suffer from depression.

115

60 million people live with bipolar affective disorder.

116

23 million people are stricken with schizophrenia.

117

And 800,000 people die every year from suicide.

118

In low and middle income countries,

119

between 76 and 85% of people with mental disorders receive no treatment at all.

120

In high-income countries between 35 and 50 percent of people are in the same situation.

121

The people in this room and the people that you have in your network have the power to turn

122

kindness into plutonium and change the world.

123

For both children and adults to provide for a better future

124

and make up in whatever small way that we can.

125

microscopic maybe, for the pain those have suffered in the past.

126

And if anyone is compelled to do so, please join me and my mother, Cynthia.

127

We're the founders of the Born This Way Foundation to empower youth, to inspire a kinder and braver world.

128

We want kids to learn about mental health and the importance of kindness at a very young age.

129

And it is my personal dream that there would be a mental health expert,

130

teacher, or therapist in every school in this nation,

131

and hopefully one day around the world.

132

Let's lift our voices.

133

I know we are, but let's get louder.

134

And not just as women, but as humans.

135

And see that there are great men in the world.

136

and ask them to hold our hands.

137

For justice, that our voices be heard, whatever our story may be,

138

for an equal standing that we will fight for justice for women and men and those with other sexual identities.

139

For me, this is what it means to be a woman in Hollywood.

140

It means I have a platform.

141

I have a chance to make a change.

142

I pray we listen and believe and pay closer attention to those around us,

143

to those in need.

144

I'm sorry, I preach a lot, so you're going to have to bear with me. Be a helping hand.

145

Be a force for change.

146

Thank you, Nina Garcia.

147

Thank you, Steven Gann.

148

I was an outcast and you believed in me and I wouldn't be here without you.

149

Thank you, Al.

150

Thank you, all the loved ones in my life, Bobby.

151

I love you.

152

Everybody at table five.

153

My fiance, Christian.

154

All the loved ones in my life who take care of me every day. and Ryan Murphy.

155

Thanks for giving me my first leading role.

156

You know that golden gold belongs to you, man.

157

thank you to all of you everybody in this room who has supported me

158

and having a voice

159

and knowing i have something inside me to give that's more

160

important than any stereotype about hollywood i have my heart to give to you

161

and I want you to have all of it.

162

Thank you for inspiring me.

163

I can't say enough about you.

164

Listening to you speak tonight gave me hope when I have trouble sleeping because I'm afraid.

165

When I walk out in the world and I'm trembling inside, it's women like you, Anita, that make me feel strong.

166

Come on.

167

Be kind to yourselves, and be kind to each other.

168

And to the designers that sent me all those beautiful dresses, thank you too.

169

It taught me something that I needed to learn again today. and to quote myself

170

if there's one thing you take away from me being here tonight now it's breed

171

compassion.

172

Amen.

173

Fashion.

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
