Lady Gaga has been told to gain weight by her record label. The "Telephone" singer has been advised by management at the Interscope that the Twitter Queen must gain weight following controversies involving the singer's health.

"She was baffled by the request since the industry usually only wants skinny," says a source quoted by MTV.

"She feels like she almost can't win either way. Her record company said she can't continue moving at breakneck speed without eating. These habits have to end right now."

Earlier this month, Lady Gaga's former tour manager alleged that the pop star suffers from a serious eating disorder and was in the hospital six times last year. David Cienmy claimed that Lady Gaga is physically and mentally sick, as quoted in a book released late last week.

In the book, Lady Gaga's former manager said the popstar had to be hospitalized six times in 2009 due to her massive sweet food binges and then crash dieting, offering it as the reason behind the cancellation of her shows early this year.

Author Maureen Callahan, seven-year editor for New York Post, interviewed 50 "friends, employees, rivals, and music industry veterans" in an ambitious attempt to chronicle the comet-like rise of Twitter Queen Lady Gaga from the awkward teen Stefani Germanotta to a world-famous performer.
