Lady Gaga's flair for wigs and over-the-top stage spectacles began way back in the day when the pop superstar was in high school. In the new hour-long documentary "Lady Gaga: Inside the Outside," set to air Thursday, May 26, at 9 p.m. and 11 p.m. ET/PT on MTV, Gaga opens up about her transformation from brunette to blonde and how one little wig began her rise to pop superstardom.

"I was so inspired by musical theater like 'Guys and Dolls'," she says in an exclusive interview during the "Inside the Outside" special. "But I would never get cast in those roles because I was a brunette."

Gaga then made a big fashion decision, one that still resonates with her to this day. "So eventually I bought a wig," she continues. "Then I got cast as Adelaide. It was the greatest moment of high school. I tell you, I still dream about it."

In the intimate chat, Mother Monster opens up about her rise to fame — from being bullied by classmates during her school days to the moment she decided to pursue her dreams of pop stardom. She speaks in depth about the moments that shaped her as an artist, including working on her highly anticipated album, Born This Way, which will be released on Tuesday.

"Lady Gaga: Inside the Outside" also focuses on Gaga at home, spotlighting her close relationship with her family and growing up in Manhattan before she made the life-changing decision to move out on her own to New York City's Lower East Side. Fans will get to know the girl who became Lady Gaga intimately.

Catch an exclusive teaser trailer for "Lady Gaga: Inside the Outside" on Thursday, May 19, at 10:58 p.m. ET/PT on MTV, after a new episode of "Randy Jackson Presents: America's Best Dance Crew."
