She’s been gracing the cover of a few magazines:
And has even had a part to play in this season of RuPaul’s Drag Race.
But her appearance on the show hasn’t been all fun and games. Lady Gaga had a conversation with some of the contestants on the show
that left some fans feeling heartbroken.
Says Gaga,
This (pretty incoherent) statement has come as a shock to those gay fans that have been following her for years. After coming out as bisexual to Barbara Walters way back at the beginning of her career in 2009, and then repeating the same thing over and over and over again...“I’m not a gay woman, you know? And [it’s] that touchy sort of subject where ― can you stand up for people that you are not necessarily fully part of that community in a way that you can understand what you all go through?”
...she now seems to be saying that not only does she not identify as gay, but she doesn’t consider herself “fully part” of the LGBT community at all.
Lady Gaga now calls herself an “ally” to the LGBT community, and a “gay supporter”.
