- Interviewer: There's that one person you wish you had said "yes" to but you didn't. Who is that?
- L.A. Reid: Okay, this is a tough one, right? I actually haven't had that happen yet, but what I did do is... One day, I had this artist in my office. She played the piano, she had on white go-go boots, she sat down at that piano, and she played and she sang. When she was done, I said, "You are an amazing artist, a true star, and you will change music," and I signed her and her name was Lady Gaga. Then, a few months later, I got her demos and it was a work in progress. I was having a bad day, so I said, "You know what, I don't like it. Let her have her freedom, let her find her career" and it was the worst thing I've ever done.
Don’t forget to wake up that guy from Green Day tomorrow.
