The Academy Award winner, 35, revealed that she ad-libbed the already iconic line, "father, son and House of Gucci," as she spoke to Variety on the red carpet of Thursday's Los Angeles premiere at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures. "I would do it in the trailer all the time," Gaga said. "I was doing it in the trailer and then something about that scene when we were doing it felt right. We did it, and it's a testament to [director] Ridley Scott as a director because he uses the stuff. He uses the creativity. He uses the love." House of Gucci's Patrizia Reggiani on Ex-Husband's Murder: 'I'm Not Innocent, But I'm Not Guilty' Gaga earned quite the reaction when the first trailer for the movie dropped in July, in which she delivered the line while making the sign of the cross. The moment has since been immortalized on social media in GIF form. Screenwriter Roberto Bentivegna also sang Gaga's praises for improvising the line. "That was Gaga the ad-libber at work. It's iconic. Amazing," he said. "There was so many great ad libs that didn't make the cut. That was certainly a great one. They just had such a great time riffing," Bentivegna added. "I think that some writers might feel like their words are precious and everything has to be respected, but for me it was joyful. It was like they're feeling it. It's like music. It's like they're jamming and the melody is taking them to this awesome improvisation. I was very flattered that they felt like doing that."
