Under each link, describe the writing techniques that the author/interviewer uses to create a finished piece of writing that both accurately portrays the interview subject as well as results in a polished work that the reader can enjoy.
Consider the structure of the overall piece, what information is in the beginning and/or end, if an introduction is used, if there is additional writing throughout the piece, if there are references to any follow up questions, physical formatting, etc.

It seems that the author uses - to show a break in the answers or a point where Gaga got off track. It seems like -s are used as a connecter between thoughts that weren't all said at that time. I also think that the author took out all the umms and wells. Lastly it seems like some thoughts weren't complete kind of. It's like they are jumpy.
The intro questions her actual place in the music world. Not in a bad way but to make her seem better than people make her out to be. It just gives background information to tell the reader who she is and who she relates to.

The author takes out unwanted umms. It seems like words were changed to make it more concise. It is all shortened. Its the most important quotes.
The author uses setting to tell when the interview took place (important it was his last interview) The author also gives background information about the interviewee. The interviewer gives quotes about him too.
