Nope, it's completely free. And you don't even need a ticket for the actual show to take part.

People in here are so incredibly pressed over Lady Gaga that their stan delusion is starting to infect their thinking. This is the main reason stans get bad reps for how obnoxious and deranged they are.

Gaga is offering this service, free of charge to anyone that needs it. Not once did she insist that it is mandatory or that it is necessary. She is giving of her own money to help those who may need it.

No but continue to hate on her, telling the whole world why you think its stupid and that what she is doing is insulting to her fans. Those who continue to try and find reason to hate this are the ones that need the help, they are the ones who can't grasp at the concept that stanning for someone does not mean that they have to hate on everything the other popstar does.

We aren't laughing at the people, we laughing at the fact that It's a Gaga concert (And only in NA).

Good for her, but I doubt there will enough counselors to help everyone that needs it.

Screaming

The amount of trolling that's gone by unwarned...wow.

This is the reason why I could never stan for LG. She makes you think there's something wrong with you when there's really not

Queen Gags is settin' trends. There's gonna medicinal weed tents on the Unapologetic Tour. Oh, and I heard Beyonce is going to run a weave emergency room for her fans outside the Superbowl Arena. What kind of charitable queens?

I agree. It's really making a joke out of psychiatric help. People with trivial problems are gonna go there and be dramatic as hell

Are you guys ****ing serious?

Great idea, WRONG place to have them.

Psychiatric help and counseling should be taken seriously... not used for because your boyfriend broke up with you or you have a weird nose.

I always thought her intention was the other way around. One could argue by making it seem like you're something against the norms of society and assuring you that you're fine just the way you are, it actually has an opposing effect. I don't know, but whatever her intention is, it's getting her a huge fan base.

I do agree that this is a bit awkward for her to be doing, but on another note, she probably recognizes that some of her fans are having trouble dealing with issues and perhaps realizes that by doing this, she may be providing them with access to deeply needed help with mental issues. Trade-off there I suppose.

Of course not but at a concert? This is just...inviting the loons. Anyone with deep mental issues can stay they ass home. I don't want to be standing next to the person who decides to off themselves right there in the middle of 'So Happy I Could Die'. I'm sorry but...

I'm shouting!

You need to step up your reading comprehension game up because I'm not sure you know what you quoted.

Part of the goal is to break down a stigma which you are propelling in your post. Not everyone who seeks helps has deep mental issues that you need to stay far from like you'll catch it or get hurt some how..

I comprehended it just fine.

I understand all that. Most of that comment was me joking.

Just think...
"So what are your plans for this weekend?"
"I'm going to a Lady Gaga concert. Oh and while I'm there, I'm going to get some psychological help for the issues I've been having."

That wouldn't sound odd to you?
A Gaga concert (or any concert for that matter) is the wrong place to be seeking this kinda help.

I agree that it sounds really odd, but it is still a little admirable for her (at least in my opinion, I respect if you don't feel the same) to be addressing issues within her "community" of fans as it appears there is one. So yes, on one hand, it is a little weird and unconventional. On the other hand though, that's what Lady Gaga is all about at this point and it might actually help a handful of people. I always say to never be afraid of diving head first if you have nothing to lose by it. That's what I see her doing here.

Besides, help is help. Doesn't matter where it comes from--if you get it, that's really all that matters. Just the way I see it.

How far off the mark can we get in this damn thread? My goodness.

This post.

True. Help is help. And I'm sure her heart is in the right place but I still don't think this is one of her better ideas.

I can't @ all the stupid replies in this thread.

Nobody is being forced to attend these services

In case you don't know by now, she created the Born This Way Foundation, and this will be one of it's projects. There will be a few people attending the shows that are interested in this, but most will not and most probably will not even know that it exists. This thread is just filled with a bunch of angry stans
