London, Aug 27 (IANS) Pop star Lady Gaga has blasted her old schoolmate Paris Hilton, insisting she doesn’t see the socialite as an artiste.

The 24-year-old went to New York’s Convent Of The Sacred Heart as a child along with heiresses Paris, 29, and Nicky Hilton, 26. However, she said they are very different despite going to the same school.

‘I don’t see Paris as an artiste,’ dailystar.co.uk quoted Gaga as saying.

‘People assume that all the girls who went to my school were like Nicky and Paris and the truth is that I went to a very, very religious school. Some girls were very artistic, some did drugs and didn’t give a f***. It was like any other high school. Except we had nuns.

‘I was the smart, studious theatre and music student. I didn’t hang out with all the popular blonde girls. I wasn’t blonde really until I was 20 years old,’ she added.
