Lady Gaga Devastated by Storm Sandy: "My Childhood Is Under Water"; Celebs Keep Tweeting Thoughts and Prayers

As a native New Yorker, Lady Gaga is lamenting the state of her city in the wake of Sandy, the post-tropical storm that wreaked havoc up and down the East Coast this week.

"im not sure where to put these feelings," the pop star wrote on her Little Monsters blog today. "im so sad. i feel like my entire childhood is underwater. the boardwalk in atlantic city, my old Apts in Brooklyn and LES. all the bars and friends.

"im just so sad," she continued. "i know it will be ok. im not sure why i feel this way. maybe homesickness, or maybe its easier to be a gypsy if you know your soul grows from somewhere great. and that great place protected me my whole life, now parts are destroyed. just very sad and pensive today. thinking of everyone today."
