Lady Gaga hit back at those critical of her weight and sexual habits during a show in Zurich this week. See a video of the speech below.

The 'Born This Way' singer has recently revealed a skill for facing criticism, succesfully turning criticism about her weight and comments that she is a 'slut' again those that had made them. Now she has addressed the critics directly with a speech on stage in Zurich, Switzerland.

"They won't kill me," she told her audience. "They won't stop me from speaking my mind. I will fight and make music with you for the next 30 years and i'll be strong because you have made me strong."

She then invites fans to join her in celebrating those who speak out against her on-stage actions - which recently included smoking marijuana on stage in Amsterdam.

"Let's cheers. Let's celebrate," she continues. "To thirty more years of them calling me a slut. To thirty more years of them calling me a fat, attention seeking whore. To thirty more years of people telling meto shut my mouth about equality and gay rights. May we cheers and celebrate to thirty more years of the conversation that we've started that we're never gonna finish."

After insults about her weight recently, Gaga posted photos of herself online wearing only a bikini. When a US politician called her 'a slut', she sent him a personal message on Twitter thanking him for his support.

See Lady Gaga's 'fat' speech below.
