She also told fans not to read too much into the little bee emoji she used to sign off one of her Instagram posts, after it sparked a rumour her Telephone collaborator Beyonce would return for the Halftime show once again this year.
Bey, who just announced she is pregnant with twins, rocked Super Bowl 50 with Coldplay and Bruno Mars, when gaga sang the National Anthem.
The 13-minute concert will also feature an appearance by Tony Bennett, who Lady Gaga called a 'tremendously wise man.' Lady Gaga and Bennett recorded the 2014 album of duets, 'Cheek to Cheek.'

The six-time Grammy Award-winner, whose hits include 'Poker Face' and 'Born This Way,' said she considers being asked to be the halftime headliner is due to her fans, affectionately known as 'little monsters.'
'Essentially, that kid that couldn't get a seat at the cool kids table and that kid who was kicked out of the house because his mom and dad didn't accept him for who he was? That kid is going to have the stage for 13 minutes,' she said. 'And I'm excited to give it to them.'
It's the first Super Bowl in Houston since Janet Jackson's infamous 'wardrobe malfunction.' Lady Gaga said no such mistakes will happen on Sunday and she's been training with her dancers for weeks. 'Everything is going to be nice and tight,' she said. 'I wouldn't worry about that.'
