LADY Gaga breaks down in tears as she discusses her mental health battle in the new trailer for The Me You Can’t See.
The Apple TV+ docuseries shares a glimpse into the diverse stories of mental health and emotional well-being, which lands on the streaming service this Friday, May 21.
Grammy-winning artist Lady Gaga joins Glenn Close and chef Rashad Armstead who are opening up about their mental health in the Oprah Winfrey and Prince Harry produced series.
In the two minute trailer, viewers are given a glimpse of the singer, 35, discussing her struggles thus far as she says to the camera, “I don’t tell this story from my own self-service.
“I’ve been through it and people need help.”
As the teaser continues on, fans next see Lady Gaga in tears as she recalls, “I just froze and I…”.
Lady Gaga isn’t the only person facing their mental health head-on in the series as broadcaster Oprah, 67, is seen also tearing up on the show.
Speaking of the series, The Duke of Sussex, who has long been a mental health advocate, said: “We are born into different lives, brought up in different environments, and as a result are exposed to different experiences.
“But our shared experience is that we are all human. The majority of us carry some form of unresolved trauma, loss or grief, which feels, and is, very personal.
“Yet the last year has shown us that we are all in this together, and my hope is that this series will show there is power in vulnerability, connection in empathy, and strength in honesty.”
While Oprah added: “Now more than ever, there is an immediate need to replace the shame surrounding mental health with wisdom, compassion and honesty.
“Our series aims to spark that global conversation.”
Several sports stars appear in the docuseries too, including 2021 Olympic Boxer Virginia ‘Ginny’ Fuchs as well NBA’s San Antonio Spurs player DeMar DeRozan and Phoenix Suns’ Langston Galloway.
But it’s not only famous faces featuring in the series but also everyday people including Selah Carefarm participant David, author and counselor Ambar, Syrian refugee Fawzi, mental health advocate Alex and poet Hussain.
The Me You Can’t See airs Friday 21 May on Apple TV+
